Never been flashed once with my retro solutions, but I do agree it is probably not optimal. That said there is no way I am separating the headlight lens from the bucket and installing the projector and resealing it myself, and I do almost all my fab and mechanical work myself. I would leave that up the a retro fit expert. I also would only get projectors that are high quality glass. I'm waiting for someone to come up with a 55w H-13 mini projector replacement assembly. I bet within 12 months there will be someone with one. They are already out for other styles.

Truth. When the price is $35 its almost worth it just to get them, hell if something breaks you can just get a whole new kit. But DDM has very low quality parts (hence $35 price), terrible customer service, and the FEDs are already on their a**es and are cracking down hard on these plug/play HID kits.

I need help if anyone has an answer. I had a problem with my passenger side headlights not coming on all the time, usually i could turn the lights off and back on and it would turn on. I changed the ballast and haven't had that problem again. Now my passenger side foglight is completely out and won't come on. Is it another bad ballast or something else?

If you swap your ballast and it works, that should answer your question that the ballast is no good.

On another note..DDM tunings new "raptor"kits, are garbage.
I hope they improved on the raptor kits because these are the ones I ordered a week and a half ago and I didn't see them yet ;(
