Default HID head lights

I'm sure there have been a million posts about HID conversion kits, but all I want to know is where you guys buy them. I have bought two different kits and long story short neither of them ended up working with my truck. I'm looking for a place to buy an H13 HID conversion kit for my 2005 f150. Any suggestions?

I too have DDM, but just beware... if you ever have a problem (it is rare - but it happens) You will be in for a LONG drawn out battle with them. When they send you the new bulbs and you send them the old ones (DDM's procedure) they will never say the bulbs/ballasts are faulty.

A buddy of mine had that same issue although I don't know where he got his from. It was a long drawn out battle to get them replaced because one of his burnt up in his headlights then soon after in his fog lights and it took forever to get replacements.

retro-solutions.

I have them on both of my vehicles (on my Taurus for 5 years, now) and they are flawless. The customer service is beyond amazing.

Get a 35w kit, though. He is still working out the bugs in the 55w h13 setups.

x2 on the retro solutions, bought a 55w from them and had to take it out(way to bright), plus cant aim my driver side headlight(snapped adjuster bolt), and im in the process of selling them to buy the 35w kit and a new headlight unit

Yeah I've heard of DDM and VVME. Has anyone ever dealt with xtremehid.com? http://www.xtremehids.com/index.php?...189j1s4dujmn45
The kits here are pretty inexpensive, I was thinking of trying them just because its only gonna be like 70 dollars for a kit. What are your thoughts?
