I figured that some of you would be interested in these for your bikes. Im not aware of anyone selling HID’s at at these prices and with a lifetime warranty. [http://www.ddmtuning.com/ddmhidkits.html](http://www.ddmtuning.com/ddmhidkits.html) I have these on my E36 (55w, 4500k, slim kit) and love them. Ive never had any problems with them either FWIW. ---

Just a heads up for those looking for HID(s), buy a car that comes with them stock or you suck. Or if you choose to go the poor route, at least get projectors. ---

I think most of us in this thread are using them in our bikes. You are right about projectors though. I have one projector I could retrofit into the bike but I’d want to have another and do both at the same time. ---
