    Has anyone had any experience with these bulbs? If so how do they compare to stock halogen bulbs in terms of light distance/flood output?

    Haven't had experience with those exact bulbs, but LED replacement bulbs generally aren't going to have great output in there. Will have nice color though.

    Don't expect anything like you'd get with an actual LED off road light/whole housing setup.

    LED replacement bulbs are more for looks and not for performance

    If you are looking for light output, you will not get any from LEDs

    put a HID conversion kit in if you are looking for light output

    You'll be blinding oncoming drivers in no time! :cool:

    But really, HIDs in Tacoma fogs will throw light everywhere and blind oncoming drivers.

    HAve had DDM lights in my headlights and fogs for 4 years. No problems what so ever until the other my headlight failed, talked to them and sent me brand new bulb, igniter and ballast. HAve lifetime warranty. Great lights

    I have HIDs in my fogs and Hella 500ffs but people tell me the thing that absolutely blinds the fuck out of them is my oem parking lights.

    I've had 2 pairs of DDMs installed for about a year now without any problems. Only issue I had back in August was a minor flickering problem with one of the fog lights, which may have been due to some strange hot/cold cold/hot daily temp cycles we had back then. It worked itself out without me adjusting anything, but I'm sure it'll eventually come back as the connectors for wiring very very cheap and brittle. Other than that, I'm still surprised at how cheap they were and how high quality the overall light output and performance...think of them as the Harbor Freight of HIDs.

    Awesome, thanks for the replies! I have been slammed with work so I get very little time to browse TW. Why is it the off road LED's are so damn bright and the replacement bulbs are not? Is it due to the reflectors inside the stock housing or just simply the bulb itself?
