It’s not like these are complicated things…and these companies are still making a killing selling them for $30-$60 Yep. Most of them are made by the same company also and then rebadged under a bunch of different names. ---

Supply and demand broski. Supply and demand. Back then, HID’s were expensive cause they were a new thing. It’s 2009, HID’s are old news. LED head lights are in the works from what I hear. ---

DDM Tuning has lifetime warranty on their $70 kits. And to be honest, even if the $35 dollar one lasts one year…just buy another one. That’s dirt cheap. ---

IMO paying extra for a lifetime warranty is retarded, it’d probably take a week if not more to send and receive new parts should they break, might as well pay for a set or two a year. ---

I agree. What I was getting at was if someone is looking at getting a good warranty, they should look at DDM instead of the 1yr most places offer. I used DDM in the past and I like their kits and I want 55w. So I’ll be using them again. Even if the kits were $100 and lasted 18 months I’d still buy em. ---

Going to go with Jay @ Gearhead if i decide to get these. I just want better light output, so 5000K is good with me. I also dont want to attract anymore unneeded attention. ---

You won’t be sorry with either 5000k or 6000k. I keep the 6000k in stock, but it’s usually only 3-4 days for a special request. Or a weekend if us stop by Friday before 5PM or so. But I do keep about 10-12 sets of HIDs in stock in 6000k as well as a relay kit for those who have crappy wiring or are extremely paranoid. Hope to see you soon! BTW, Skanks says you should rock the 6000k and he wants to know what’s up with the VW. ---
