I purchased a Xentec 35W 6k HID setup from a vendor that I had purchased from before. I will post pictures of it when I get home. I plan to install it this weekend once I paint my headlight bezels.

Original price was $35.47 w/ free shipping. I made an offer of $32.50 and won.

I guess I'll see how they hold up.

I got the DD kit, and I think the lifetime warranty on the ballasts is worth it.

BEST Hid kit on the market.
Lifetime warranty on the ballasts/bulb.
Fully digital, slim ballast. Relays built integral to the ballast harness.
I have the DDM 6k kit in my car and could not be happier. The light output is sooo much better compared to other similar 6k setups.

They went back to the fat ballasts.

Yea, I believe they mentioned something about trying to keep their prices low.

Some of them are just H11 versions made to fit the H11b socket. It works, but might not meet the quality that you might expect.

You have been fore warned.

BTW H11b are only used on hyundais AFAIK

I use the Xentec brand or something like that on ebay. $38 and i have them on 4 of my family members cars and mine. They are great and just as good of quality as any other brand. I am buying another set right now for my fogs. I completely recommend them to everyone.

I was gonna get 6000k to match my headlights. 3000K is too yellow for me. Why do you recommend 3000k?

Because that 6k in your fogs is gonna blind the hell outta everyone. Won't do much to help your visibility in actual fog either.

It would be more blinding than the headlights?
