DDM is great for the price. I went with this other company recently called retrosolutions. They have capped bulbs which produced a less scattered beam pattern in my truck. They're a little more spendy but I haven't had any issues so far.

DDM is what i run on my ATV's. i've put them under water several times (ballast and boulbs) and never had a single problem. hell, my headlights take on a little water sometimes and they wont quit.

you thin a 55watt kit would be to much for fog lights or would you all stick to the 35 watt ones?

No 55w in fogs, stay with 35w or you'll melt the housing. 35w are damn bright anyway. My 35w fogs are way brighter than my stock low beam.

I stick with 35s in everything, bc 55s have too high a tendency to melt shiz. I would never buy from ddm tons of horror stories out there.

I have a buddy that tried several of the ebay kits with none of them lasting longer than a month while another buddy has had an ebay set for 2 years with no issue. Seems to be luck of the draw with the cheaper kits. I personally use "theretrofitsource" for all my HID kits, which feature "Morimoto" kits that come complete with a stand alone wire harness so there are no issues using the smaller factory wiring and fusing.

ive used xid extra dot com's and ddm' and spencer's hid. i havent had any issues with the lights or ballasts. the relay that comes in the harness blows. i had a ton of problems with them smokin out. now i always toss the relay that comes in the harness out and put in a good DEI (directed electronics) relay.
