I ordered a set of hids for the Cobra, both headlights, and fogs from vvme. I got the set for $89 shipped. I went with 5000k on both heads and fogs.

Could someone post a picture of a stock cobra bulb next to the HID bulb? I'm trying to figure out if there is any bad scattering of light using HID bulbs in a halogen housing.

There ALWAYS will be, no need for pics to prove it lol. BUT, with that said, it'll still be 1 MILLION times better than OEM shit bulbs.

Tons of scatter.

I'll try to get a video sometime soon in case anyone is curious what they are like.

ive been having some issues with my headlights from hidguy, i have the hi/lo controller and at first the headlights would flicker it looked like the highs and lows were switching by themselves and now the driverside headlight goes on and off by itself. im pretty irritated. ive checked and there are no loose grounds or wires wtf gives.

I just installed this exact kit on a friends Cobra. Fogs didn't work. Was getting power to the box but no power out of it.

Anyone know what part this is called? Obviously the one with the red arrow pointing to it.

One of my ballasts fell off while driving. Bought a new one off ebay ($15 shipped) but when I went to install it I realized it didn't have that part (in the picture).

I emailed DDM, they said my best bet was to buy a motorcycle hid kit. I think it is like $25. But they want $15 for shipping as well...because it's coming from China I assume.

ordered my head light and foglight kit from DDMtuning. except mine was $128 shipped. was $65 for the head lights and $45 for the fog lights. guess they went up in price. i didnt get any of the extra wire kits or anything,. just the high/low bulb 6k and fog 6k. super excited to see what they look like. factory cobra highs suck.
