Default Dark Syde Racing Plug-n-Play HID's

Just got my new 6000k plug n play HIDs from Dark Syde SRT-4. Heres my review.

Shipping
I ordered on tuesday, they were here friday afternoon!

Customer Service
Absolutely fantastic. Ryan gave me his personal number incase I needed help with anything. I took that as an oppurtunity and did call him before the install, just to make sure I didnt do anything wrong. Thank god I did, i was going to splice wires! He reassured me the correct way of doing it, which was MUCH easier then what I was planning on doing.

Install
The easiest part about it! Take the stock headlights out, and unplug them from the harness. The new HIDs screw right back in like the stockers, then you connect the power and ground into the harness. No splicing or anything, just plugging them in! Then you have to mount the box. Your kit comes with bolts washers zipties etc, anything you would need plus more to mount your boxes. On a scale of 1-5:

Easy [1] 2 3 4 5 Hard

Overall Opinion
AWESOME. You know when youre driving down the highway, and theres 30 cars in the oncoming side with their headlights on, then you see one set of HIDs on a bimmer or lexus etc, and it makes ALL the other cars yellow headlights look horrible? Well that car is now me Everyone compliments them, and its a very nice touch to the car at night. I can light up roadsigns from farther away then I can even read, its great. I had the stock bulbs and hated them. I got silverstars, and they werent much better than stock. Waste of money actually. Then i got the EuroDesignz online, and i liked them alot better. Finally i got sick of those too, and Ryan hooked me up with these. They are very inexpensive and very worth the money i assure you. They are VERY bright so dont stare into the headlights for very long

I just had a nice photoshoot at the ocean, those pics will be loaded soon and i will post them up. Big thanks to Ryan at Dark Syde Racing HIDs!!

Heres a quick snap in the driveway with my digicam. Wait until you see the high quality pics!


And this is a shot of the car that everyone thinks is a luxury car at night. ( Seriously.. a guy from a nissan dealership saw my car at night.. and he said "You shoulda got a 350z, I bet it would have been alot cheaper." I said, "Really? What are they goin for?" He replies with a hilarious, "Oh about $42k."

Easier is not always better. The correct way would be with a upgraded relay harness. Its your car though.

honestly i see you popping into every one of my posts dogging HID's in non projector housings...its actually quite tiresome to hear you go back and forth back and forth.... i wont delete your posts as its constructive remarks and what not... but honestly if its not pertaining to your .02 cents please just relax a bit... i have had HID's in many cars with much more finiky multifuntion switches and have yet to have an issue (i had these in my 01 RT durango and my 03 RT and never had an issue and they are still running the bulbs that came originally in the kit). just lay off a bit..
