LMAO..... ha ha.. Looks like just enough room for a walk path through the garage.

Well props for freezing your arse off, just for headlights.

Yeah, I've been there. I installed my retro'd fogs when it was around 10 degrees, and for that I had to lie on the icy ground....and the fogs on these are a ***** to get on and off. There's one bolt that's just really, really hard to get to and you can only turn it like 1/10th of a crank each time cause there's no space....lol.

Man, I'm sorry that harness didn't fix the issue for you. I'm with Mike. At this point, try another bulb for kicks. If it doesn't work, call DDM and have a fit.

HIDPlanet is a good resource for info, but they are all worse light snobs than me, and that takes some work....lol. It's also owned and administered by TRS, so it tends to be pretty biased. Not that I disagree with them, but still.

WTF!!! Fire, oh, i would rip all that stuff out, put back in the crappy box they sent, and call them, get that rma number or whatever it is, and ship all that back to them, fire wire and all. Forget the warranty thing, just say i want my money back.

With your problem, yeah, Im now officially done w/ DDM. My problems, your fire problems, and light issues, im done. Too cheap to be worth the trouble or the time of fixing it all.

If you still want some, i found a site that a friend used and has no problem.
http://www.mod-express.com/category_s/387.htm

The guy is very nice and has great communication, well before buying, never did buy, friend bought locally before i told them. But person that reccomended this site, has no problems w/ thier lights or service.

Just another place to look, or save and get the kit from Matt @TRS, i have some ballasts i got and work much much better than ddm crap.

Damn bro, sorry that happened. I've been looking to get some good quality HID's and Projectors, but I might just stick with Stock. Everyone was swearing by DDM on my other thread when I asked what would be best, but I will definitely not be purchasing from them.

Hope everything works out for you

Yea everyone swears by them because they are very cheap compared to any one else. But now they are $30 bucks for a raptor kit that is pushing my cheap and working list. Which u can see by me and 01tahoe its not worth it.
