So I have been looking at DDM tuning HID kits, but before I buy one I need to know for sure that the bulb will fit behind the stock projector without modification. Also, does anyone know from experience the difference in brightness between a 35 watt and 55 watt kit? I am just wondering if its really that much different.
Thanks,
Logan

If you get the correct bulb type.

35watt runs a lower "lumens" count then 55watt. So yes the 55 watt is brighter
Example:
Bulb Temperature 3000K
35 watt 2950 lumens
55 watt 4800 lumens
55watt is much brighter and hotter.
"heremymind" says that 35's should go into the fogs and 55's should be used for low/hi beams.. The smaller the housing the higher chances of heat build up.

I missed that about the wattage. The 35watt kit vs the 55watt kit color will look different from each other. The 55watt kit color is lighter. So a 35 watt 6000k kit would look like a 55watt 8000k

So definitely the 55 watt then.
The page also asks about a dual in dual out harness, anyone know what that is? I've done some Googling but couldn't find anything but other people asking questions about it.

You don't need that harness
