Im very tempted to pull the trigger on these, but i dont wanna spend the money to find out they are poor quality and or dont last long.

Thanks guys!

I See that comes with the H4 bulb. My 82 MB uses the H4 for the OEM Bosch E-Code headlights I have.

I have the H4 conversion in my truck. No HID bulbs though. The DOT sealed beams are totally inferior.

Ive heard good things from other people, just wondering on their performance in our trucks. For $40, theres not too much to lose I guess. Id just hate to throw hard earned money away.

google reviews give them a 2.3 rating and terrible service. unless someone on here has personal good experience with them I'm gonna pass

Iv used DDM multiple times. I got one set of HIDs that melted the first week, they were replaced by DDM. Phone service was great. But putting HIDs in a a non-projector style headlight is worthless, don't waste your time. The light output will suck, you will have no light pattern.

^^ this is true.

You'll need HID's and projectors, which means cracking open the assembly. Don't do it unless you have the ability (or know someone) that can bake them back together.

I agree with above. I had HID's and switched to to sealed LED's and would never go back.
