Don't have any of those but if I was going to have any HID I would contact fastblackmerc(Jim) for his assistance and direction, if not have him put some in for me--providing of course I go to his house for him to do it--Maybe PM Jim for any suggestions on what to do--

I put those on my car back in April and had nothing but problems. Pulled them out and put the DDM kit in and theyve been flawless since day one.

DDM Tuning for the win. Just wish the reflectors in the CV worked as well as the MM for HIDs.

Just my .02, even DDM be weary to an extent. I am on my second set of bulbs from them that are mismatched tempature. Each time I have to get a RMA and send them back at my cost, then pay for them to be tested to gret replacements (in the end costing as much as bulbs) The colors aren't even close. Like 4300 and 6K

To each their own with HID kits. The only reason why I use DDMtuning is the price, selection and warranty.

Almost every kit out on the market is made in the same place with the same components. There are slight variances between makers of the equipment.

Even with DDMtuning's ballast I do recommend adding some rtv to seal up the ballast. It does have some sealant already on it but there is one area where moisture can get it so adding a little more sealant.
