HID Options/Decisions
So I am looking into a well priced HID conversion kit. I have done some searching and asking around and these are the ones I came up with
I think I am going to go with the 10,000k's. i like the blue but Dont want it to be suuper blue.
On this first link, which bulb do I want. i know our trucks take the 9007, but the list here has a 9007-1 and a 9007-2. It looks like the 9007-2 has a second bulb. Maybe for lighting up the inside of your housing? or perhaps its for a low/hi?

And I have the DP F5 tuner. Word on the street is that I have to get these ferrite beads?...

I dont really know what these are and if they mean that I need to cut my dp tuner wire to splice them in you can count me out. I paid good money for that tuner and love it ha.
And here is the retro solutions one. What are your preferences on the kits and 10000k bulbs?

Also, I am thinking about getting a set of the stock fogs that everybody has other than the e99 guys ha. Anybody have a link? Or suggestions to other fogs that I could put HID's in? The stockers just seem to fit perfect.
BTW, here are my headlights:
I got them off of ebay and they are ok. I think they are the immitation 03's. They look awesome but they dont throw light like I thought they would and one of them has a little bit of moisture in it. Or it did the last time I checked. Any ideas on how to fix that?
Your input is appreciated. I would like to pull the trigger on one of these HID kits with bulbs included very soon.
And please post pics of what HIDs you have with the listed bulbs/ratings etc.
Thanks!!

I have bought several kits from DDMTuning.com and have been very pleased with the price, quality, ease of installation, and durability. I went with the 5000k bulbs because I wanted the absolute most usable light. Do what you like, but when I see the blue lights, I can't help but think "Oh boy, it's another wanna-be rapper punk with a coffee-can exhaust on a beater Civic"
As for the ferrite bead, yes, you'll need one for your DP. I put one on the cable from my DP and have had zero problems since. I bought a bunch extra, so if you PM me your address I'll send you a pair, though you'll likely only need to use one. Keep the extra for "just in case" or as one to share with another FTE brother or sister.

So if I go with ddm I just ask for the 9007 hi/lo set up in 8000k?
And although I do agree with you on the extra blue and other weird colors, I dont think that the 8000k is too much.
An as for the ferrite beads. Thanks! PM sending now! They look like they just clip right on huh?
