armin922 Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 before I read this thread, Just wanted to say that I had purchased a 35 dollar HID kit off of ebay called Xentec. Ive had it for about a year now and havent had any problems with it. Its a 6000k bulb. I wish I woulve read this sooner and bought the DDM but just an FYI i havent had any problems with the cheap xentec kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AudiOn19s Posted November 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 before I read this thread, Just wanted to say that I had purchased a 35 dollar HID kit off of ebay called Xentec.

I wish I woulve read this sooner and bought the DDM but just an FYI i havent had any problems with the cheap xentec kit. One of my good friends tried to push me to that brand kit on e-bay. He has 3 of them currently and has had no issues in in over 2 years so far. I'm sure there are pleanty of issues with all of the cheap brands though. Funny I came here looking for a more reputable kit and ended up going for the cheapest one I could find! :-( In the end I justified the cheap kit because it was going on a car with 200k miles on it Like I said, at least for the moment I've got two functioning headlights again even though they're a mixed bag. The bulb color even matches so I'm good for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right the rest of it needed done. All those FJ's have really soft paint and I've never seen one with good paint He sold the 996TT and bought an orange Gallardo.

dragknee66 Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 ...so I bought the DDM tuning kit. They were on sale for $30 so why not I thought. One of the balasts was DOA. Hopefully the exchange doesn't take nearly as long to get here as the initial order did. Not holding my breath. Guess I'm not totally upset because I only had one side out. The DDM 5k bulb is exactly the same color as my current 6k bulb GOOD LUCK with that.. Im STILL trying to get 1 DOA bulb AND ballast replaced. Ive bought 3 kits from them and the bulb scam shit is definitely legit. Ill never order from them or tell anyone else to either. Ive bought 4 kits from kyrptonbulb.com now and theyve been SO much better. You get the correct bulbs, the kit works and the customer service is better... oh Ill mention they ship from the USA TOO.
