    I may be replacing my current DDMs for another pair since they are SO freakin cheap now. We don't need any of those error correctors in our car. What the hell do they mean by HID harness? That seems like a necessity.

    AudiSport, I know you've been running the DDMs for a while. Have you ever had any issues? I just installed a set of Depo ecodes with the 55w DDM kit (6000k bulbs) and they worked wonderfully the first night. Well, last night I went to turn them on and only the left headlight came on. I had to flicker the headlight stalk about 10 times (on/ off) before the right one came on. Any ideas?!?!

    TIA

    Bad ballast is my guess or the ballast is going bad and will work on occasion.

    do you have these ballasts or are you just speculating? just curious - because i hear that the DDM ballasts are known for this issue and these (my) ballasts are brand new...

    I've had about 5 sets of their ballast and went through like 3 sets on my old Bimmer. My buddies have also gone through a fair amount of these as well. That's the price you pay with a $39 kit I guess.
