Default Need Help Identifying HID Kit

I have an 07' that came with HIDs installed by the previous owner so I have no clue what brand or lumen rating they are. The driver side bulb went out on me and I'd like to find the most economical way to replace it, i.e. not replacing the entire kit but just the bulb or one side.

Here are some photos of the kit, anyone have an idea what brand these are and where I can get a replacement?

If not, do you have a recommendation on a new kit that will hook up directly to the wiring thats already installed so I don't have to re-run it?

Let me know - thanks Drew

Try switching the bulb over to rule out the bulb or ballast first. If the bulb then replace both so they match.

Looks like the DDM Tuning kit. Most likely the 35 watt. The older ballasts tops were silver newer ones are black.

Thanks Guys - I switched over the ballasts to confirm it was the bulb that failed.

The kit does look similar to the DDM kit in the links above however I found these replacement H11 bulbs at XenonDepot that have the same connections.

Ordered a set of the 6500k to try them out.

Thanks again for looking out!

Hi,

You definitely want to go with a pair of bulbs if you want to ensure a colour match.
Thanks for the business!

Steve
