Thanks! I already bought the 55w kits for both high and low, so its too late now. If I can, I will take a picture after they are installed of High vs low. Also, I went with the 8K(I also heard they would wash out) If I do get an error, I will run down to LA and just pick up the kit there(they are relatively local to me, but don't have the 55w kits on hand as they are illegal in CA)

Installed the ddm tuning kits in the low beams. No error code kit, no errors either though flickers a little at idle though. Doesn't seem to affect driving though

I installed the kit and had no flickering or any issues for about a month. Then the flickering started slowly. Shortly after that only one headlight would turn on and I would need to restart the vehicle to get them both to come on. Bought error code eliminates and that did nothing so I gave up and pulled them out.

At cbrider: my wifes mercedes c300 had the exact same issue. It was getting the right voltage. I thought maybe it was the ballasts, so i traded them out and put the suspected bad ballasts in my silverado which worked fine in the chevy. Nothing would keep them working, so we had to go back to silverstars.

Real bummer bc my wife really liked the light output.

Just get your HIDs from SHARP HID and get the BOW harness. I have installed them on three of my cars from a Cadillac to a dodge and no problems..

I've already bought them,and I looked around before I did. Ddmtuning has good prices and lifetime warranty. Most people don't have issues and they are upfront about the issues with Dodge. My Chevy has them with no issues.

55w ddm kits.
Off- good to go
Idle-light flickering
Wot or heavy throttle- lights have heavy flicker and turn off.

I'm going to throw in the 35w ballast and go from there.
