    Freakin DDM Tuning

    Has anyone ever had to ship HID bulbs?

    A ballast I bought from DDM needs to be replaced under warranty. They're telling me I need to ship back both ballasts and bulbs to them. But, I don't have those stupid little plastic cup holders they sent them in anymore. I'm sure whatever I do will harm, if not break, the bulbs.

    I just cannot stand dealing with these clowns. Their customer support is atrocious, which is a problem when they sell products that consistently fail. Sorry, I hate to complain so much, but man have I had bad experiences with this place.

    Any ideas on getting that stuff to them in one piece would be appreciated!

    I keep my caps on my original bulbs after install of the hid kit.

    I bought some HID bulbs from them, 3 days later one bulb goes out! Contacted them and they said to break the bad bulb and send them a picture. I did and they sent a new bulb out within a few days. Weird warranty procedure but I did get a new bulb in the long run.

    I just got a package last night filled with peanuts, so I think I'm going to try that. They also requested that I send them in anti-static bags. I told them that was ridiculous because the thing's already broken.

    That would have been the intelligent thing to do...

    Wow, that's really weird. Guess they don't want you getting two bulbs out of the deal...

    I got those c/f emblems from them good quality stuff but one had a black speck on it and I sent an email with a pic and quickly responded back and told me they were sending out a new one, 4 days later had a new one. I'm kinda bummed they are hassling you like that, thought they had pretty good customer service

    Can you say "rust"?



    Can you say broken "endlink connection on shock body"?

    I've always associated DDM with cheap crap. Heard enough stories to make that association...
