Just in market for hids and wanted to know what everyone was using and if they would recommend them.

skboyce2 · 07-18-2011, 07:23 PM

Soonerlightning,

I would recommend these a kit from Ricky Stator
Ricky Stator

Never heard a bad word thrown their way

blkstangman88 · 07-18-2011, 08:56 PM

waste of money, hit up ddmtuning.com. the 35watt kit works great with the stock stator and the ballasts have lifetime warr. upgrade the stator and get the 55watt kit for extreme light lol

soonerlightning · 07-18-2011, 09:04 PM

Both my quads have the upgraded stators on the way so I'm not concerned with powering the lights. I would like to have the best light output possible and would like plug and play since I run xc from time to time and don't want splices all over the place

DBiasii400 · 07-19-2011, 09:38 AM

I have bought two 35 watt kits off eBay for $35 shipped, the one works great on my yfz450r and i have had the other on my z400 for a year....they are very very bright

well you will need to get the H6M bulb type and then whatever color (temperature) you want. you will need to cut up your stock wiring and the wiring on the kit itself, but you save a lot of money and I have had pretty good success with those kits...just make sure you seal everything up good so no water gets in

civic_hatch88 · 07-19-2011, 04:05 PM

The kit that i got was plug and play, plugged into the triangle shaped connector for the lights.

Do you remember where you got it?

civic_hatch88 · 07-20-2011, 02:40 PM

Got it from one of the vendors from my work. Was a pain to get it. Can look at the brand when I get home.

soonerlightning · 07-20-2011, 10:38 PM

I want to know what kit you used that was plug/play also.

civic_hatch88 · 07-25-2011, 08:26 PM

Sorry for the late reply. These are the ones that I'm running. Plug and play. 35watt H6M bulb. Color is 8000k.

do they have h6m bulb size? and what year is your yfz?

civic_hatch88 · 08-02-2011, 02:31 PM

It is a H6M bulb and mine is an 09R. I heard u have to do something different to the older yfz's because of stator or wire it direct to battery. Waiting on another set to come in to try it on a buddys 05 yfz.

I actually just had to take my hids off, my check engine light would come on and the quad would start to sputter until i turned the lights off, after that the battery would barely charge. I decided to rewire them and put a switch directly off the battery. it helped a little but my battery still eventually went dead. civic hatch, do you have any problems with the battery draining?

rexysa · 08-03-2011, 07:00 AM

i had the same problem with 08 se. only started it a couple times to show ppl and the battery drained. didnt really want to upgrade stator for lights i use may be once a yr. anyone use led light bars?

civic_hatch88 · 08-03-2011, 04:29 PM

Havnt had any problems yet, not much riding though cuz its been too hot.

gas it!! · 08-03-2011, 04:45 PM

i've had my Trail Tech's for about 4 years.

i have DDM Tuning on my truck and i know about 6 other people with them as well.
definitely a trusted buy.

not sure about upgraded stators for them though. i can't remember what the stock stator outs out. i think its 70 watts.
