DDM Tuning HID's Not Fitting Fog Lights?

I tried to install my DDM tuning HIDs in my fog lights and the dan bulb would not fit in the housing. The tabs look close but actually too thick to fit in. ON the stock bulb the tabs are metal but on the DDMs they are plastic.

Has anyone had a problem with the bulb not fitting? I know I purchased the recommended bulb size from the forum

thanx

I believe the fogs are H11's.. Is it only the notch that is not aligning or is the bulb to big? I bought a differnent brand but mine was fine..

I will not recommend DDM tuning to anyone. I had the same problem ordering HIDs for my 2011 Taurus, they wouldn't fit. That was after the 4 weeks it took to get them. Cust. Support assured me they were the correct ones, but to no avail. I then ordered two h11's to go into my max fog lights, and they wouldn't turn on with my ballasts from the Taurus kit. I dont even know if they would have screwed in, never got that far. I got fed up and threw it all in the trash. 4 week shipping time, though they take your money within minutes

You guy's are totally wrong DDM Tuning is the best site to buy our HID's! I purchased D2S bulbs for the heads (8000k) and H11 HID Kit also (8000k), the installation was exactly 20-30 minutes everything fit perfectly. This is my 3rd time buying the kits from them never had a problem!

Just because we had a bad experience doesn't mean we're wrong. Check their Facebook page, it's got tons of bad reviews lately, and like I said I had 2 orders, spaced a few months apart that took over 3 weeks to get to me. Never again

That's because they're coming from China now.
