do you guys think these are legit? or should i kick down another 10 bucks and fill up my tank instead?

I'd look at DDM's raptor kit for $30. I have them in my truck and love them. Plus they come with a lifetime warranty. Here's a link http://www.ddmtuning.com/index.php?p=product&id=102&parent=85

+1 Some of the Mark VIII crowd are using these as well with good results.

Most of these HID kits work fine. I had a 35w kit & a 55w kit for my Town Car & the only one that gave me trouble was the one I got with the high beam function. My good friend has had one on his 03 Town Car for about 2 years & has not had a single issue with it.

I say you go with ddm also if you're looking for a cheap hid kit. I have them on my fogs.

 

[stallone 81]

how many watts did you use for your fogs ?

 

[Alax7]

35w.Didn't see the need for 55

Wow! I had no idea they could be had for so cheap these days.

ive been running the DDM slim kit for about 6 months now, and really dig them, i had a problem with one of my ballast when i first got them and they had to ship another one over, no problem since, i heavily considering getting a set of the raptors for my fogs too.

1 Take out old bulb
2 put hid bulb in
3 connect balast to hid bulb
4 connect headlight wire harness to balast
5 turn on light, if they don't work flip pos/neg wires around.

does it cause your check engine light to stay on? or whatever it is they are complaining about in the mark forum

 

[Alax7]

You mean the "bulb out" light? and no it doesn't.

 

[605RezlifeLS]

Sounds good, before I buy it anybody have anything to say.:shifty:

 

[Alax7]

Dont go with none of that purple HIDs,12k, looks girly and bad,well to me it does. I would say stick with 4300k-5000k, 6000k the most.

 

[605RezlifeLS]

should I go with a 55w or 35w? I'm thinking 6000k or 8000k

 

[stallone 81]

would the 55w kit be too hot for my fog lights ?

 

[1LoudLS]

would the 55w kit be too hot for my fog lights ?

the amount of glare would most likely be retarded, the fog lights dont have the little shield that blocks you from looking directly at the bulb like the low beams have, i can only imagine the the 55w would cause an accident.
