i'm thinking about getting HIDs, but i want to make sure the housing is correct for it. from what i understand, HIDs should be properly projected so that the light is not shooting everywhere, blinding drivers. the light seems projected to me, judging by the pattern i can see on walls with my headlights, but i'm not really that knowledgeable about this kinda stuff. anyone know?

 

from my experience with HIDs on my car, the housings are angled fine without overspray. the only issue for me was none that i used came with a direct plug in play. i always had to in a sense ghetto rig mine since i didnt want to do any drilling on my housing since my warranty isnt up just yet :-D

 

lol i have ddm tuning hid's and theyve been fine for me, i know other 2008/09 poeple who also have them on i-club

 

i have DDM HID's as well and they're great. probably the best thing i've done to the car so far. easy install, and no headlight readjustment needed (unless you've messed with the adjustment from the factory)

 

good to hear. thanks for the responses. i'll check out the DDM HIDs that you guys have. thanks!

 

i run the apexcone ones or w/e they are called at 5000k 35w h11

 

DDM FTW!!! im running on slims with 6000k 35w H11

 

where'd you guys buy them from? and which...uh....K (?)..... are the most white?

As far as the color goes... looks 4-6 is going to be the white spectrum.


I ordered a 8000k set last Thursday when one of my headlights went out. I cheaped out on shipping, so they should be here tomorrow... maybe.

EDIT: I just checked my order status, Hasn't shipped yet. So maybe they will be here on Thursday?

 

thanks for the info!

 

I have ddm's 8000k 55w slim ballast and love them. worth every penny for sure!

 

got 10k 55w on mine they work well.

 

Something to consider if doing a TRUE HID conversion:

Si don't see subarus on the list? But the slims work well in an 08 sedan wrx?

 

I have them and they are awesome only problem I had was the original wiring on the passenger side didn't set flush with the hid wiring so I had to hook up a relay kit
