    Hey guys, I am new to this forum and am looking into some halo projectors. I also want to look into ordering some HID's but most of them I have found that people recommend are over 100 bucks and only include low beams. Are they worth it? Are just low beams good enough? Does anyone know of some HIGH QUALITY brands that are more reasonably priced? Thanks!

    i would have seen that ^^^ before i got mine. HID's are absolutely worth it by the way. the beam goes so much farther down the road. the kit i got was 8000K high beams and halogen low beams. the HID low beams would be nice, but i got a set of 55w fog lights that really make up for how much the low beams suck

    a lot of people have projectors, check in the lounge for a review on the spyder's i believe.

    i think a lot of people go with Xenon light Hid kit Hid light Hid headlights Bulbs Ballasts Car parts 's HID kits. i just got a cheap $50 ebay set and a $10 harness and i was good to go...i will never have a car without HID's ever again. NEVER (unless they make something better ).

    I'm with you bro. I feel tha same way. It's time for everyone to go to HID. It's just that much better for everyone behind the steering wheel going in BOTH directions.

    it seems that here are so many VVME HID loyal customers and ddm customers....
    another vote to VVME HID cuz i already run vvme brand hid for 2 years...and stay away from ddm sucks customer service and crap shipping...

    even so, my suggestion : check out the right HID kit from their website HID kit Xenon HID Conversion Lights LCD Projector Tattoo kit CCTV for sale then go to ebay of their store to order the same HID kit, usually, it is 5 bucks cheaper than their site....

    Did you guys go with the HID's with the same factory bulb setup, with a both high and low beam on the same bulb or some other bulb type with only low beams?

    It took mine a few days to process too, but they are great quality and life time warranty.

    You guys get the HID kits? If so for projectors or factory headlights? Also did you guys get the low/version or just the low?

    ok maybe i was being extreme about not ordering from them. im just impatient and my relay has already arrived and they still havent processed it. but they are cheap and hopefully good quality. they will fit either factory or projectors, as long as you order the appropriate bulb and only go 35w so you dont melt anything. i just got the low bulbs because i never use my high beams.
