a while ago i inquired about putting HIDs in my halo/LED headlights. emailed the people i bought it from on ebay and asked them if they were HID compatible...THEY SAID YES!!! so i was planning on getting the DDM HIDs until i rewired my wires from the headlights to the parking lights and saw "HID IS NOT COMPATIBLE"....

so what do i do? following the instructions or be a knucklehead anyway and put them in there?

IM WILLING TO BET THAT HIDS WILL MELT THE PROJECTORS BECAUSE IN MY STOCK HOUSINGS YOU CAN FEEL THE HEAT IF YOU PUT YOUR HAND IN FRONT OF THE LENSE.

BUT..... YOU KNOW I ALWAYS RUN ACROSS SOMETHING CREATIVE,
IF YOU EBAY AND LOOK UP FORD F150 CCFL ORACLE, THERES A COMPANY OUT OF LOUISIANA THAT WILL INSTALL THOSE CCFL RINGS IN YOUR STOCK HEADLIGHTS FOR AROUND $200. THE ONLY CATCH IS YOU HAVE TO MAIL THEM THE LIGHTS AND THEY SAID IT WOULD TAKE ABOUT 3 DAYS TO COMPLETE YOUR GOOD IF YOU STILL HAVE YOUR STOCK LIGHTS BUT AS FOR ME I DONT LIKE TO ROLL AROUND HEADLIGHT-LESS FOR A WEEK, AND OF COURSE IF YOU MAIL IN PICS THEYLL REFUND SOME OF THE PRICE.

I SEEN THESE ON CHARGERS AND MAZDAS IN THE AREA AND THERE BRIGHT AS HELL AND LOOK SWEET, NOT SURE ABOUT HOW LEGAL THE DIFFERENT COLORS ARE, ONE OF THE CHARGERS I SAW WAS BRIGHT A$$ GREEN RIDING DOWN THE STREET (VERY BALLSY)

@bhsoulja and whoismootoo i looked at those too. i looked them up on youtube and people are saying they aren't that good. lights dont last to long and expensive to replace. and some who sent in housings to have them come back broken and ccfl's loose in housing.
