HID kit installed
Installed a set of HID bulbs in the standard headlight kit. I forgot to take a long distance before and after.. But they go at least twice the distance. Like you've got the brights on all the time and more modern looking.
Picked them up from ddmtuning. Under 50 bucks shipped. Been using them in my cars for years. (these are 35w 8000k) Light output before Looking through tinted windshield Comparison Output afterwards Through tinted windshield |

Re: HID kit installed
That's awesome!!
I can't run halogen headlights anymore ever since I got my first set of LED 6000K headlights. From now on it's HID or LED all the way for me! |

Re: HID kit installed
Yellow fog lights are cool, but I took a different approach - on my Envoy I wired things up so that when the high beams are on the highs, lows, and fogs all shine. On low beam you can still choose to run with or without the fogs. All it took was some scrap wire and two diodes. I also used a relay and wired around the ballast killing DRL function. Getting a projector setup is on my wish list.

Re: HID kit installed
I've been very happy with DDM Tuning as well. Have them in my truck, wife's car, two friends' cars, mom's car...except for the occasional plastic clip breaking, I've had no issues with quality. Don't have them on my cart yet, but I'm sure soon enough. :)

Re: HID kit installed
Whats the current draw on the DDM LED headlamps? Will it get me a bit more range out of battery charge? Or are they just brighter?

But I don't know what the draw is on the normal halogen bulbs to compare to. I will say, they don't dim out like the stock bulbs when you let off the gas and you aren't charging. They stay constant, which is nice. |

Re: HID kit installed
Im not finding LED headlights on DDM Tuning. The only thing I am seeing is the DRL Cree LED lights which only put out 335 lumens. which is about a third of a normal halogen headlight.

Re: HID kit installed
Thanks I thought that was high for LED. I know they are out there but they all have fans on the back so that would be bad news bears for an off road cart. HIDs are awesome, I just dont like the time it takes for them to fire up.
