Go with led, Less problems and hassles. I work for a car dealership and we have done HID kits for a while. I just switched to led's after all the problems with ballast and bulbs. Hard to find a good product these days. Sure I can get them swaped out, but its just not worth it anymore.
I used to use DDM until ballasts starting going bad very frequently. Switched to The Retrofit Source and couldn't be happier.
I went with DDM for my lightning, almost right away I noticed one of my ballasts was bad, they replaced it immediately and I haven't had a problem for almost 2 full seasons of riding everyday.
Where did you purchase the LED kits. Been thinking of going this route on my vehicles...Go with led, Less problems and hassles. I work for a car dealership and we have done HID kits for a while.

The one we get from our distributor are from China...everythings made there these days I guess. I have purchase sets off of e-bay and the are all the same. My wife has had hers in her van for a year and no problems. Her HID's I worked on constantly. Retrosource HID's would be the best if you go that route.
