^^^This. Don't buy LED bulbs without the shield. An adjustable base is also required so the LEDs can be positioned correctly in the housing.

I see DDM Tuning popping up in a lot of threads. Some good, some bad. I checked out their site and its quite confusing.

Its looking more and more that I am going to have to spend some money and upgrade the entire headlight to HID. I don't want to spend a ton of money on this as I am on a budget.

DDM is junk. Same league as Opt7.
