DDM VS Apexcone

Apexcone is a hassle. Ballasts are big.

I'm just telling you, don't order from DDM Tuning unless you want a 2 week wait for your order to ship.

So what would you suggest then?

Or stay away from Apexcone forever. I love them, however I hate their "Lifetime Warranty".

BTW. i did get my fogs from DDM tuning i got mine in enough time for me. I did not mind the longer wait for shipping. but i did save a bit of money.

no longer do you save though. DDM is $70 + 25 for harness. We are $95 including the harness.

Apexcone ballasts have dropped in quality and we don't carry them anymore. DDM is slimmer but unless you want to wait 3 weeks for your kits don't order from DDM Tuning. We don't use them anymore because they are always backorder and warranty exchange take forever...

Apexcone is a "premium" brand hid kit, so in other words a marketing ploy.

Apexcone used to be a very good brand, but like Oliver said, they have dropped in quality.

haha, that's not true AT ALL. THe apexcone ballasts have a lower fail rate than the DDM ballasts. Always have and always will. (.015 vs .02%) A full size ballast with the same quality components as a slim will always last longer due to cooling ability.

The ONLY reason we don't carry the apexcone is that they are full size and a pain to mount.

Damn, well I guess I'll have to upgrade to DDM when my Apexcone fails lol...

Old DDM kits no. They go to DDM. New DDM orders go to new supplier.
