Just got done installing the HI/Low HID's. The retaining clip for the low's was a PIA.

And ofcourse with my luck one of the ballasts was also bad (high beam). I emailed for a replacement and once that comes in will have to go through the install process all over again.

If ordering today, approx. how many days will it take to arrive to NJ? Thanks.

NJdrool · 09-10-2008, 09:10 AM

Mine took about a week with standard shipping to NJ.

Hey guys, I just want to express my concern for the fact that Matt wants to charge me $30 to EXCHANGE bulbs. They are unused. I just looked around on the net and DDM Tuning charges $30 to PURCHASE a set. Not only that but DDM Tuning offers the kits $80 cheaper... Thanks Matt..... you did a great service for us, But I do not want to deal with you again.. Its not the factor of $30, its the principle.

As I stated to you in my PM,

While DDM does carry a lot of the same items as we do, you will not find the same level of customer service as we give. The reason that our prices are higher is that we have people that make sure your order is shipped out the day to place it or early the next morning and keep a lot of items in stock. I know the DDM warehouse and know from people ordering on other forums that they are constantly out of items and on weeks long backorders.

Yes, DDM is cheaper than we are on items, but the bitterness of poor service lingers long after the sweetness of cheap price is forgotten.

Sincerely,

Matt

We will continue to provide the best service to the lotus forum and bring you items at the best price we can.

You need an H6m bulb.

Does the 660 use 1 bulb or 2? If it uses 1, let me know and I can do a 1/2 kit for you...

It has 2 seperate headlights. Just one bulb per headlight.

Can you get that kit>?

Will the kit survive the bumpy ride>?

Yes and yes.

If you click on the link in my last post, you can choose the H6m option...

Matt,

My driver side headlight doesn't turn on at times when starting up the car. I end up having to turn the car off and back on, which usually fixes the issue. Any suggestions?

There's a bolt near the windshield on the passenger side. Its the main grounding point up front. Make sure its tight.
