BuyHIDs.com here too. Took a while to get them working right because I have never messed with it before. Mike was helpful as hell and got me through it, and now I LOVE the results.

BuyHIDs is good but DDM Tuning is cheaper and has a free lifetime warranty. I installed mine from DDM and have no issues.

When you have to use it its not free from what i read on here lol. But there kits are decent for what they are. Our warranty is hassle free no sending parts back. No questions asked. Id like to say we have better customer service

^^^This. I've had DDM for almost 2 years now. Had one ballast go out. Filled out a form on their website and paid $3 to ship the ballast back to them and they replaced it. Not knockin' BUYHIDS, I just never really had an issue with DDM.

Honestly if we're talking HID kits, I'll probably go Buyhids - I don't think the headlights are something you want to go "cheap" on.

I guess once I feel like getting HIDs, BuyHIDs will have another customer.

I checked out DDM but one thing is.... do you need the harness,error eliminator and Adaptor cables . These will work ok in the stock headlights ? Also which is the ones most used 35w or 55w

I am running the 35W kit without a problem in my gen 1 projectors, no adapters or code eliminators. I now have retros and I am still running the same kit, I had to buy adapters for the d2s bulb, and for the 9007 headlight plug. You may need adapter cables so its plug and play for the 9007 light plug.

So is no one having the one eye problem? I have had this problem it seems with every car I have put hid's in especially with DTRL. The kit I have now (I dont know where it came from) will usually only fire one light when I start the car and it doenst matter if I turn the lights on manually or leave them on auto (DRTL) it is still a fight to get the other to come on, and extremely annoying.
