Re: HID fogs where can I get them....?

anywhere you want. a lot of people here have been mentioning VVME.com recently.

...i personally like DDM (made by apexcone, they offer a lifetime warranty & have super slim ballasts).
either way, i suggest you look for something with a lifetime warranty on bulb & ballast + good customer service.

from what i've heard, DDM last longer than the regular apexcone ones.
for the fogs, you shouldnt have a hard time with the install; most put the ballast above the fog unit. not hard.

Re: HID fogs where can I get them....?

my only advice here is... don't worry about lifetime warranties, unless you're dealing with a VERY established company.
HID sellers/companies are a dime a dozen... they come and go ALL the time, and realistically will not be around a year after you purchase your lights.

It's happened to me twice already.

Idk about that advice, catch. Apexcone been around for at least 4 years that i know... excellent customer service.

55w will give you a lot more light than 35w. 35w is enough, but if you want to go with a higher temperature (more color) and dont want to want to make up for the loss in performance, go with the 55w. Otherwise, 35w is plenty.

Well yeah, if they've been around for awhile and it's reputable, for sure.. it's a good option to consider.
Most other hid sellers will not be around for long.

I'd like to see someone try and redeem their warranty with vvme in 3 years.
