DDM Tuning is a good kit. And they have an aux harness should you need it (my car needed it). I’ve been buying their kits for a while.

I’m thinking of getting the 3000K set for my fog lights. I dont want US spec lights that are made for me to be seen. They make no difference, weather theyre on or not. I need the proper ones, you guys call them “french” or “euro”, where I call them “regular/normal”. DDM has great prices on those and the parts are small, so I can tuck everything away nicely.

I’m running a “JDM” setup on my car. 6000k DDM’s on top (55w) and 3000k DDM’s on bottom (35w).

I like the morimoto Minis. So much easier to handle and use, the output is pretty much comparable to FX-Rs output, I think the High beam is actually brighter with the morimoto’s.

I did them myself, Ran me about $500 for both headlights and foglights

Headlight specs:  
Morimoto Mini D2S with 5000k Morimoto bulbs and 55w setup

Foglight specs:  
Maxima h3 Projector fogs (6th gen) with 3000k bulbs and 55w setup

I was taking pictures and still adjusting them (Everytime I pull the light out, it has to be realigned GMs fault, cliping them sucks):
