and you were saying the hi/low function doesn't work very well at all? They say a 9007 bulb uses axial filaments meaning the high and low filaments are above and below one another, which sounds like the telescoping HID bulb that DDM sells should work perfectly, right? anyway, let me know.
The bulb does telescope to change between high and low. However, not enough; at least for the stock headlights. I don't know what's going on here, but when I switch between the high and low beam, I can notice a change, but the beam pattern gets worse. Thankfully, the lights are brighter than high beams and I haven't had a need for brighter light. I've driven on very dark roads at night, and at highway speeds and that would be the time you need that, but the "low" is bright enough to keep me covered.
It turns out that the orientation of the bulb makes a difference (DDM said it didn't matter) and I also had the main wiring backwards (oops). Both of those, in combination with each other made it seem like the way I originally had it installed was correct. Through more research and another writeup on here, I was able to correct all my issues with my lights. I now have proper functioning high and low beams, and the brights indicator is no longer constantly on. However, I believe that trimming the bulbs to get them to match is in order, but I won't be able to get to that until next year because of work... ....once the lights are warmed up, they look more yellow than blue, so they look as if they are not blue anymore, which I had grown to like, despite ordering the 5000k originally not wanting blue...
Also, did u get HID fogs too? and also from DDM? Nope, stock. My stock fog lights don't provide any extra light. They used to be brighter than the headlights, even brighter than the sylvania silverstar ultras... but now my HIDs over power them
You also got the harness, would you recommend it? I would recommend the harness. The big reason why I got the hi/lo combination was because that package comes with the harness, so the cost is the same.
As far as the error eliminator kit,
It's not necessary if you wire it correctly!
That being said, again, I'm very happy with them, and will move the kit from car to car
Let me know if you have any other questions.
