When they both were working it looked so nice. With that headlight out it looks like crap. I can't believe this kit is acting up already

Just wanted to say thanks to Ducati for helping me trouble shoot the headlight out. It wound up being a loose ground, now their back at full strength:peace:

Hell yeah I was freaking out big time. I had a cheap ebay brand by Xentech before and they were just terrible. They would constantly flicker, turn on and off at random. So I asked Ducati what brand H.I.D. He would recommend seeing how I don't have the pockets for the projector headlights rite now. And he said the 9008/H13 :Morimoto Elite from The Retrofit Source. And they work great. No flickers and just a loose ground on my behalf. So you can see why I was freaking out when the headlight was out_ I thought my Raptor was cursed on rejecting H.I.D.s lol

If you guys want the best of the best HID Ballasts, UPGRADE to Denso (Toyota) OEM ballast. You might have to order the specialty ballasts if you don't have D2s bulbs. These are the same ballast that come in the Lexus LS400's and the warm up time is literally 2-3 seconds as in specs but to the eye, these buddies warm up almost instantly it seems!! They are brilliantly brighter than the 55watt ballasts I had compared to my 35watters. You can also order the in house boosted version that cranks out 100WATTS! I'm tired of buying the cheap HID ballasts from these Chinese "copied" companies.

35watt- http://www.theretrofitsource.com/product_info.php?products_id=12811

Or the BAD ASS BOOSTED ones 100WATTS!!! - http://www.theretrofitsource.com/product_info.php?products_id=12811


Hope this helps

Rated.... I freaked when I got my morimoto 5five 6000k and one day I had them on and started the truck :Grenade:. One of them went out and would NOT come back on.... I literally switched lights 10 times in the housings before they started working again! Make sure you freakin have those things off before you start the truck!!:flipthebird:
