HID questions

OK so I'm on the DDM site, and to do the Hi/Lo and fogs is looking like $180, so is there another place that's more reasonable, and do I need the "error eliminator" I do think the relay harness is a good idea, but I'm just not sure all what I need to get

Directly from their site, the H13(9008) Raptor kit is $30. I got the 6000K bulbs. I don't see a HID bulb listed for the GT 9145 fog light...

You won't need any extras such as the error eliminator.

I have the raptor kit as well h13 for hi/lo and I think the fogs are the same kit but without the high beams. Also I do not have the error elims. Cost about 100 bucks for everything

yeah mine from that site came to about $60

I have an HID question too...

I've got the stock HIDs in mine now, but they don't seem to be as bright as I would like them to be. Can I just switch out the bulb to 8000K ( I think they are 6000K)? Or do I have to switch the ballast too?

I have the 600K bulb and it is bright as hell! The thing with the Ford OEM HID is they have that shroud the reflects the light backward before being reflected forward... A higher temp bulb may not make it any brighter, but give off more blue which doesn't actually make things more visible. As far as just switching out a different temp bulb with the same ballast I have no idea about...

OK and the fog bulb is listed, its the H10/9145, and thanks, I see the Raptors now.

well I hope I get these damn things now, they ship Fedex and they only ship to your billing address, and thats my PO box, and I dont think Fedex delivers to PO box's

Once you get the shipping number you can call fed ex and have them hold it for pick up.

They sent threw the USPS, so it will come to my PO Box, I just get aggravated when a company that's using Paypal wont just use the Paypal info that Paypal gives them, I'm not likely to buy from them again.

But I got the 8000's, should be cool.

OK this company {DDM} sucks, so I ordered these damn things not last Friday but the Friday before that, I was bothered by the fact that they where in California, and it would take a week at best to get across the country to me, but I just checked the tracking, and it said the order is getting ready to be shipped-------from CHINA! for god sakes, hopefully I'll get them for OC Weekend 2012, I'll never buy another thing from these jokers again.

Sorry, Ed! I know neither Nate nor myself had any problems or delays dealing directly with them...

Same here, I didn't have any issues with them.

Sounds like DDM got outsourced!!! But yeah, mine shipped within a week and although I have not ran my car since december i love them!!

Well I finally got them, it took almost a month, warning, the last time I spoke to them I was told they now only ship out of the factory and don't keep anything in stock in the US, so if you buy from them, expect to wait a month to get them, there factory is in China.

Hopefully I'll have the headlights in before tomorrow for the cruise, but the rain will probably stop me from the install today, and I wont have time to do the fog's, as I have the new smoked CCFL halo's to put in at the same time, that will match the headlights, and I want to re wire that whole install, Blue didn't have fog's when I bought her, and so all the additions that where done here and there need to be totally removed and the whole thing re done better then I have now.

But I'll get it done soon.

hmm.. so they were outsourced afterall!? When I ordered mine last august, they shipped from i think california. And for the price Ed, youll love em

Well the quality look pretty good on the parts.

well everyone warned me not to get the 8000k's because they would be to blue, I did, and I think they sent the wrong ones, they don't look very blue at all, maybe it's just me.

they should have a color diagram on their website

well they do and I ordered the 8000's
