ty everyone for your responses. Didn't expect so many good options to choose from. Hey Darryl nice to see you on the boards again. You have any personal experience with the recent batches of DDM kits? My DDM raptor kit I bought couple years ago is still running strong but with these new shady business practices and outsourcing products I'm afraid of their cheap faulty products atm. Don't get me wrong here, DDM was a great company to purchase from but I'm not so sure at this moment.
I personally run 2 DDM kits right now, 1 in the projectors & 1 in the Blazer fog's.. I have 0 complaints about them. They seem to last forever. I've had mine in for close to 2 years now. I've installed several sets & used their replacement bulbs on other kits without issues either. I used to be a HIDkit salesman (if you remember) for Kaixen HID Kits.. Very high quality kits, diamond cut Phillips bulbs etc.. but these DDM's are better in my opinion. Which is why I quit selling them, I couldn't compete with their prices.

I've had my XenithXenon kit for a while now without any problems. As mentioned earlier, they give good customer service. If I had to buy another kit, I would consider TRS.

Actually my only complaint about DDM now.. is they rape you on shipping. I just checked on some bulbs for a buddy.. shipping is $18+ now. So it's pretty much $40 for a set of bulbs.

That's actually fast. DDM usually takes much longer because of back orders. You guys need to realize almost every HID kit on the market is made overseas: China, Taiwan etc..

The DDM kit I had in the Accord was great, I just put a new set in the Mustang a few weeks ago and so far so good as well. No complaints.

I read somewhere or even on their site saying that they're gonna stop carrying HIDs? Said they're only gonna have some left over to cover their warranties and thats it.
