Man you guys were right about being patient, I placed order on the 19th, went online to check status and they had a notice due to chinese new year, shipping will be delayed. My new ship date was yesterday, I emailed a couple days ago and still have not heard back from them, they sure didnt hesitate to take my money though. The other ship date they gave for orders after the 20th is Feb 1st. Is anyone else waiting too?

You can spend $25 bucks or you can spend $200. Its all gonna do the same thing and some zipper head built it. The DDM stuff is top notch. Like I said Ive got the DDM's 5K on my Polaris RZR for around a year and they are BRIGHT!!! Ive had the headlights and ballasts submerged on several occasions and never a problems with them. Im gona put some in the new SG.

I know they aren't made here, but the units talked about here were purchased from a company in China. You buy a kit from CustomDynamics or Kuryakyn, these companies are right here in the states and you have American's manning the phone and you have some protection for the purchase

I was talking to my father in law asking him what HID kit he went with, he said he has the Xentec HID kit and so does about 5 or 6 others that we ride with and none of them have had any problems out of theirs at all. I forgot when i posted this thread that him and the 5 or 6 others we ride with have HID kits because I was out of town working. They have all had their kits for going on almost a year. No problems from any of them.

I just received my order this morning. Quality looks good but everything was in Chinese, there was no instruction sheets with any of the 3 kits I ordered so now I have to ask if anyone knows if I am missing a wiring harness.
I ordered a dual bulb kit for my RG, and 2 single kits for the kids bikes. There is 3 identical harness in the box, so if the dual light set up takes 2 harnesses wont I be short one? Or does the dual set up use one harness? I just roughly open the box and Im not going to get to the job for a week or so. Thanks in advance for any info.
