u shouldn't need any of that, i just purchased my kit off amazon from a company called kensun. and i didn't bother ordering any of that, u shouldn't need it for the ddm kit either. it is all just plug and play stuff

The only extra you need (I believe it comes with it) is the H7 spacers.

If you go to www.ddmtuning.com and look for the dual slim ballast 35W H7 kit and pick the colour that you want.

4500K is the brightest, the lower the colour the more Yellow, the higher the more blue and purple. but also the farther away from 4500K the less light output is produced (4500K has about 300% output and 8000K still has more then twice what a halogen produces)

Also 35W HID's actually use less power once lit, they only use more power during start-up while the gases are heating up.
+1 on the DDM kit. i got the 4500k 35W and i absolutely love it. couple of guys i ride with liked it so much they just bought a set.

i havent got any hids on my bike yet, but for my car i have 55w/6000ks and they are blue enough. you dont gain anymore more brightness after 6-8ks, you just get more color.(bluish/purple)
