Anyone brought products from DDMTuning?
I was shopping around for some HIDs for the X and saw this site that has some for a good price. anyone ever buy anything from DDMTuning.com and know if they are any good? They have kits for as low as $30. Thinking about picking up a H1 kit for the X and a H7 kit for a CBR600... not sure whether i should pull the trigger or go with a different brand. Any advice is appreciated. I have posted a link below. Thanks in advance.

Yes, they are good, BMW and Audi guys use them and I have a 35w 6k slim ballast kit from them on my X. Lifetime warranty, cant beat that.
The only problem I ran into is that the base of the bulb is thicker than the H1 halogen, so it requires a little bending of the metal clamp that holds the bulb onto the base. I actually dremel'd the bulb housing a little and made it so the 2 bumps on the headlight housing dont raise up the bulb any and it fits flush.
Im not sure if other kits are the same but I did a quick search and it seems like they are. Its tough to say because nobody ever takes install pictures, only the useless after pictures that cameras cant even show properly.
Also, I wouldn't go over 6k, street signs have a light blue hue to them with my kit, but its definitely bright. If they offered a 5500k kit that's the one I would buy. So try to choose either 5k or 6k.
Heres mine, although you cant really use pictures as reference since the exposure gets all messed up.

No problem 04XTYPE, if you need me to snap any pictures of how I did mine I can, its a little tricky but you should be able to figure it out. You should be able to just put the right bends in the hold down clamps and be done with it, but its hard to bend with such a small space unless you take out your headlights completely.
Disco, no, 8k is not bright at all, 6k is a hint of blue, anything higher than 6k and its PURE blue which is seriously stupid looking if you ask me.
