Only if your headlight is aimed poorly.

I have ddm hids. Both 6k for my fogs and running lights. Love them to bits. It's been about two years now with no issues.

great. aim them 5 feet in front of the bumper and you now cant see anything.

you cant tell me that you can 'aim properly' and still see without blinding people. after installing pnp hid kits in multiple different cars and trucks and finally doing projectors last fall (in both cars that i had at the time) that I will no longer do pnp hids. its worth the extra time and $$$. imo.


that is the retro that i did on my ranger

Ok, for my 2004 Grand Prix GT2 I going to go with the ddm 9006 for my lows and 880 for my fogs. Both 35 watts in the 5000k color. I am getting the optional two wiring harnesses to add direct power to the ballasts.

BUT FIRST:
Has anyone had problems melting or using 35 watt hids in stock fog light housing?
Has anyone had any problems melting or using 50-55 watt hids in the stock headlight housing?
