why not ask DDM? I mean, you've gone there for the kits, why not have them answer your questions?

And since he's not buying from buyhids, he's not gonna get his answer from him.

Anyways, you only need the ballasts and bulbs; relay harnesses aren't necessary unless you're running 55w ballast. Also (I don't know the set up of the avalanche), but if his main headlight bulbs are used for DRLs then he'd need to disconnect them (either pull the fuse or locate the BCM to disconnect wires) as HID bulbs will not work under a low voltage charge and will prematurely fail.

In this case, that's correct.

Mike and I have answered 1000s of questions about hids and Mike has created tons of how to's... and we've seen several threads where people use our how to thread to figure out how to install their ddm kit....

We've always said that we feel we provide great service, great forum support, and have a constant online presence, and those are reasons why we feel you should choose us over DDM. This just highlights that fact.

I'm just tired of the BS. You and Nacademus and Joe basically trying to pick a fight in the other thread, which we've stayed out of, and any time there is a hid thread one of you (and a few others too) always feel its required to trash talk us.

I try not to take it personally, but here's the truth. I personally have been out of work since April. I herniated a disc in my back and 3 weeks ago had major spine surgery. I have ZERO income, because I got hurt at work and workers comp is fighting my claim. I have no unemployement, no disability pay, no workers comp... NO INCOME. Every time you trash talk or try to cost us a sale, you are taking food directly from my cabinets. I'm not exagerating. The money that Mike has seen fit to pay me for helping him with HIS business over the last few months is what has bought some of my groceries. Local charity has helped with some too. When you post your BS, you are directly affecting my LIFE.

It's hard not to take that personally.

I never tried to trash talk any of you guys when you had your first group buy going and started your business up. I was helping out some questions, if you recall, (and you can comb through the thread if you'd like) for people who didn't know much about them projectors.

I was then basically attacked by you or mkulrey (forget who) saying that I was not working for you and I shouldn't answer any questions since I don't know squat basically. I was GOING to purchase the projectors from you folks, but then the way you or mkulrey came across was not a proper way of doing business - especially to a potential customer. That's when I came on the defensive and then was reported?!

If you don't recall, but I do remember mkulrey doing the same thing before he became a vendor.

Anyways, Happy Holidays! Enjoy the time with your family and what's more important than BSing online.

you shouldnt need a relay harness because the wiring in a truck like that should be more than enough and that alternator is more than capable of handling that little bit of draw
