Seriously check out www.ddmtuning.com. Slim ballasts, life time warranty, best prices I've been able to find anywhere, FAST shipping, easy installation and they look awesome!
9007 hi/low full kit are like $69.95 and H11 fogs are like $49.95. Here's the link...

Also is the HID wiring harness (http://www.ddmtuning.com/index.php?p...=133&parent=94) necessary? This how-to (https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/showthread.php?t=92078) makes it seem like it is.

The Hi/low lights come with their own wiring harness so there is no need to purchase one.

you don't need to remove the headlight bracket to reach in there for the fogs unless you have chubby arms. the other way you could do it is to take the screws out of the splash guard underneath the bumper and they are right there

Got my DDM HID kit done. I grounded both the wires under the headlight brackets where the screw holds it in place for the headlights to sit properly, hooked the positive to the circuit breaker where the rod is. The ballasts are really concealed along with the box and tucked the wire harness under the grill. The only thing you can see is the red wire and I'll have that covered up soon. Just got to get my hi beams to work right because it looks backwards when I turn them on. Just going to take the blue connector and switch the two wires around and that should solve the problem other than that those are some good HID's from DDM Tuning. I'll post some pics soon.

So I recently bought HIDs at a car show. Turns out they sold me 9004's instead of 9007. I repinned them, and they work great now. Anyone know anything about reliability and longevity of the lights if I'm using them differently. Everything is stock.

So I put a set of HID's in for a buddy of mine today on a 2006 chevy cobalt lt. He claims he bought the bi xenon bulbs for his headlights, however, his brights don't work when you turn them on, but his low beams work fine. The set came with a relay harness which I hooked up with the extra plug on the passenger side that doesn't plug into anything. Can anybody help me with this?
