••ü•• DDE install by Chris- Lead Installer in MD

Seriously guys, unless you don't have an oven, there's no real need to pay $100+ to have these things installed. Search around, there's a member here (goldmaxNYC?) who knows how to remove the HIDs w/the Data Dots. From there, just follow the instructions on housecor's site and there's really no way you could mess it up. Bake, open, epoxy rings in, rebake, seal, re-install. Wiring is cake. It's really just 2/10 on a difficulty scale, save yourself an easy $100.

Look at my sig.... I know how to open the lights. For me, I seem to have more money than time lately, so if this "pro" is in my backyard it doesnt hurt to look at the options. Thanks for keeping your fellow max-head in check though.

There is no big improvement, The electrical part might be that its now easier for the ballast to work during cold days... thats probably it, I might be wrong but i dont see something better they are good as it is
i dont really use my angel eyes during the winter i rather show them up in the summer months!

If you would like install, Labor is $300. We run all our wires with the factory wiring and hide/zip tie them so they are un-noticed.
We also solder all our connections between the ballast, wiring harness, and tap in.
Baking is not the easiest thing in the world. If you mess up, you're out $650 a side. You will get glue on the lense. For those that don't clean it correctly, you will scratch your lenses etc, so be warned.
We take our time. Last Sat's install took us over 6 hours. We do a top knotch and professional job, and that's why we get paid $300+ (yes, we even get tipped ) per install.
The new DDEs will have a more secure ballast. It will almost get ride of the "cold start" problem.
Feel free to email me if you have any questions, or just post them here

you sure do take your time, I have done 2 installs not couting mine and they only take about...tops 3 hours....and $300 just for an install
I CALL THAT A RIP OFF!
anyone paying $300 dollars for an install on rings that are $175 should check themselfs....

Well, two things - before you call "rip off" everyone is entitled to charge whatever they want. And if his QOS (quality of service) which is hard to find these days is better, it might be worth it.
I can only vouch for his QOS, and I know it's good.
If he chooses to lower his price to be competitive, that's up to him.
Remember boys and girls - fast, good and cheap, pick any two

Depends on who and where we ship it to.
Basically, if we get 10 participants, Cynicalwry is offering them for $179.
Or, if you prefer not to wait and save $20, we have them on the web for $199.

We can argue this plenty of times but the truth is someone here might pay 300 dollars, for $175 angel eyes...in my opinion why pay twice as much...? if we got some people here that can help out and still charge a lot less....
dont take this the wrong way I am just trying to save someone money, that might want this product but cannot afford 300 dollars for installation.
