Default Ordered my DDMTuning 8000k HID kit!!!

Anyone have pics of this kit? I know a lot of people have their kits, so I wasn't sure if anyone had a pic. I was hearing that the slim ballast kits aren't as bright so that's why I was wondering. I'm hoping it's a sweet kit. Any input is appreciated.

I got the 8ks and they are bright but one of the bulbs went out a couple of hours after the install. The seller sent me one right away but now I'm worried they will burn out. They are the thin ballast and they fit well under my fairing bracket and I only paid 39.99 from a company out of california. Show us some pics after you install them. Johnnyh

DDM are known to sell fairly good ballasts for the price. The best bang for the buck in my opinion. Be wary that your light output is no longer ideal for oncoming drivers. HID's in a halogen housing produces significant glare. Be careful out there!

And for the fact that 8k are not as bright as 6k.

Fenatic - can you send me the details on where you ordered / how the install was (where you mounted the junk).

I need to order these for the new ride.

I got mine from motorcylehidlights.com. I have the 6k whites. Here's the video from the website that they provide for installation, I used it to help with my install as well. Also, here are some pictures of where my ballasts are. I bought the slim ballasts.
