With shipping it was around $85. Not bad at all considering I saw another kit for $150 just for headlights lol.

So we can put HID's in the foglights of the Ranger without worrying about melting anything?

Posted this in your other thread, but your fogs should be H10. Also the 6Ks wont be matching since the top is 55W. IMHO, if you want the matching look you should get 5K fogs.

I believe they would. 55W washes out the color. Here's the DDM color chart that shows the colors for 35W & 55W to show you what I'm talking about:

OK thanks for the info Tom, I just got off the phone with DDM, since I ordered them recently. They were able to change the 9005 for H10 and change the 6k to 5k.

Just got an email from DDM, all 35w raptor HID kits are on back-order until the 7th. So my 55w should be here by tuesday, should be getting my fogs by late next week or early the week after.

Drew, the 9005 vs the H10, knowing that both are the same size or fit towards the fogs, are both the same in brightness. That probably was a dumb question to ask but what the hell.
