Quote: They DO exist, just not aftermarket, yet. OEM's are using a 5000k in some newer vehicles, but they're very rare, and only for projectors. No aftermarket makes them yet. Not worth a jump of 700k, no one will know the difference.
5000K aftermarket bulbs absolutely exist:

My output at 55W with those bulbs:


Pure white output in my FX35's. **** 4300K.

Quote: anyone else feel DDM are the best bang for the buck? i heard they are not reliable.
No problems here.

Yup. DDM 55W ballasts, AMP to D2S connectors and Morimoto 5Five 5000K D2S bulbs.

Sadly, yes but they're just as good as the Morimoto 50W ballasts. I've seen comparison pics.

I originally bought a 9006 kit for my old retro set up but those bulbs couldn't be used in my current set up.

Plus, I don't trust that they truly have 5000K.

So from reading this thread, I've gathered that 55w Ballasts suck. The ones i'm looking at buying locally are 35w. is that better or worse?

I've got a pair of Ebay projector retrofitted ( replaced the crappy halogen projector with Mini D2S Bi-Xenon) headlights for sale. http://forums.maxima.org/5th-generat...ml#post8491193

Not sure I follow, are you using halogen bulb/rebased HID bulbs on your new projector headlights then. If that's the case, your OEM harness will never work with it since 02 comes with stock D2R HID.

What would you like us to do, without even knowing the model of the headlights? Perhaps buy a new WIRING harness? Return the headlights and buy ones that DO fit?

No. Who said that? That's like asking if you need to use stock rims.
