Yeah. most kits are. longest part should be mounting your ballasts. All you should have to do is pull the old bulb out, put the new one in, hook it back up, run the pigtails to the ballast and mount it. Make sure you put dieletric grease on all the connectors. Or if you want more then a 1 year warranty try rikkensport on ebay, same kit, 179.00 lifetime warranty on bulbs and ballasts. I get alot of compliments on my lights. 43k is white, 6k is white with a slight blue tint, 8k makes the headlight housing blue but gives off a white light. 43k give off the most light.

Aren't these HID kits basically a low beam only? Meaning you no longer have a high beam. Personally that wouldn't work for me.

I got my set off of eBay. Now I know a lot of people hate on eBay HID kits butttt just dont buy the cheapest pair you see and dont buy the most expensive ones either. Look for the prices that are about right in between and those are the good ones that you can get a deal on.

www.ddmtuning.com I have used them before. They are cheap and small. I havent had any problems out of them. They are digital HIDs also. They have a 40 dollar kit and a 69 dollar kit. Get the 69 dollar kit cause they are better. U might be able to get away with the cheaper kit but I wouldnt take my chanes. I try and sell the cheaper ones to older cars like 88-99 cars and trucks and the more expensive ones to the dodges and chevys. They are just wired weird. You might be able to get away with the cheaper one.

I have HID lows which the low beam is HID light and the high beam is factory but still brighter than a factory bulb in both modes.

Basically it mine is two bulbs in one with the factory high smaller. But it still gives out more like than a factory high/low

So time out, explain to me how a cheap kit has the R&D put into it to have a proper beam pattern? I wonder why there are no DOT approved HID kits.

Those lights are terrible. They are unfocused and they have an improper beam pattern. I can tell just on first glance because I know what I'm looking for. I'm sorry you wasted your money. You would have been much better off with a set of relays and a new wire harness and a pair of Xtravisions. To anyone else reading this forum, please do your homework before wasting your money on an HID kit.
