Most reliable HID kit brand

Post by **mjmg24** » Mon Sep 14, 2009 7:01 pm

i was thinking about putting HIDs into my 09 altima coupe. i was going through websites/ebay/etc. and was just overwhelmed with the number of brands there are to choose from.

i was just wondering if anyone had any thoughts or suggestions to what they would prefer. also, any websites or stores that you prefer as well would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

Got mine from DDM Tuning, I decided on them for the sole purpose of their lifetime warranty.

do you need anything else besides the kit they sell? any relays or whatnot?

I also have the ddm kit and you do not need anything else. The kit comes with everything you need to do the install.

The only thing you have to do is cut the plastic trim around the plug that connects to the oem socket. Basically on the DDM plug to the OEM plug have the Prong on the ddm kit plug directly into the OEM socket and electric tape it.

hope that make sense if not there is a how to on this in the tech pages

By far the best are McCULLOCH HID CONVERSION KITS!

i've heard good things from mcculloch kits, but expect to pay something like 3x the price over DDM

Hey was shipping from DDM to Canada easy? Or did you have it shipped to the states somewhere. I'm considering getting the 6k from DDM as well.

not sure aboit (lol) shipping to canada, but I would deff. get DDM, to me they are the best quality and price and with a lifetime warranty you cant go wrong.

here is a pic of my 6k in my low beams and fogs

DDM is like the hellen keller of H.I.D.s..............

I didn't cut anything to put my DDM's in but I did have to switch some wires. Not sure which ones or what exactly I did, but I think had to shove one of the clips in backwards or something like that.

Only problem I have had with them is that the ballast fell off. I didn't clean the surface properly due to it being like 10pm and needing to get it done so I could go home.

yea i had to just rotate the plug 180 degreez n they fired up. easy except for the whole wheel well shyt ... i can see like 3 blocks ahead! like cleveland from family guy says "and boom goes the dynamite!"

which ones did you go with finally? how did they turn out? im having the same dilemma and trying to figure out what company to go with. Was looking into V LEDS kit but really not sure yet...

I'm also eyeballing VLeds for a while now. Any feedback on them???

Post by **Blackmobile** » Mon Dec 14, 2009 10:27 am

those are kinda pricey compared to ddm, 100 bucks for the kit. ddm is half price or less. but i'm sure they're good, v-leds products are above average IMO
