H I D lights

[exitstance]

I've done a lot of searching on here and found alot about hid's.

The only shop in my city that sells them are $300 for lows installed, $500 for highs and lows. I searched hid on amazon.com and the prices are good imo. Are these kits good? Anything I should be aware of?

Also I have a 2004 tahoe and just want to do the lows, what exactly do I need to look for?
Is it easy to do myself?

Other option- the shop here sells 80w halogens 7000k. Maybe just go that route.

Sorry for the long post and all questions, just don't want waste money or mess something up.

Thanks

ddmtuning.com is your best bet.

I have a 04 Tahoe and got HID 4000K 35W for $51.00 shipped to MA from CA
Also I got 4000k HID 35W for foglights for another $50.00

Such a good deal to get 2 pairs of HIDs for $100.00ish

Thanks...I'll check them.

Also as far as color temp, I want really white maybe with a slight blue. Im thinking
4000k-6000k.

6000k-8000k is white w/ a little blue. 6000k is most factory HID systems

i get mine from ebay, haven't had one fail yet,,, but seriously, why would pay for an install? it's basically the same as installing a bulb, you plug the stock socket in to the box, then you plug the box's plug in to the bulb, done




i got 6000k, haven;t had a chance to install em yet though, stupid snow.

the DDM 5000 was alot bluer if that is a word than i thought they would be if you want pure white from DDM go with the 4000

Yea my 4000k from DDM is pure white and looks dope

Thanks for the quick replies!

Is the difference between wattage just brightness? I was told if I got the 80w halogen bulbs i would need a new harness because they would burn the stock.
