Default Whats the Best HIDS kit?

Hey CL. I am looking for a good HID kit for my 01 GS. I wanted to go 8k 55w headlight, 3k 35w fogs, and 8k 55w bright lights / daytime driving lights. There are many HID manufacturers out there. I was wondering what is best reasonable priced HID kits manufacturers. Your suggestions please.

Yea, been looking around for a while now heard mostly good things about DDM. the thing is what options do i need tho. Like HID Harness, Error Code Eliminator, Adapter cables. Do i really need all that.

well I didn't use any resistor to eliminate the head bulb out warning i did what most people do is just remove the bulb from the cluster and call a day or if you are in a rush place a small piece of black tape over the the warning light .
now for harness i still holding out til summer im a firm believer in direct power from the battery to run Hid ive done that to just about ever car i own and had nothing but good output vs stock wiring brightness output

I have an HIDextra 6000k kit on my SC and I like it a lot. Their customer service is great and the shipping is quick!
