    I'm willing to bet the DDM kits and the GB kits sold here are all made in China.

    not true, i have purchased several OEM HID componets (denso, phillips, matsushita, etc...) that are quality made. there is quality stuff if you really look for it...but not if your getting one of those kits that comes w/ a HID bulb that has an H4 base, than your out of luck on quality!! (but thats just my own personal opinion, dont everyone get all crazy cause that comment!!)

    All kits on egay (including DDM tuning and other venders on the boards!) are Chinese stuff though...take it for whats its worth.

    The more important thing to me was a warranty and history of good customer service. DDM Tuning had that when I bought mine, so that helped me make my decision.

    Best bet is DDMTuning.com or VVME.com. I have had both and work awesome, as well as customer service and warranty.

    You can choose whichever.

    Tacoma models 2005-2010 are all the same.

    I personnally have bought three sets off e-bay: headlights, foglights, and for my twin hellas on my bull bar. they are super bright and i'm yet to have a problem with any of them. they were $49. plus $9 shipping each. they came with a 2 year warranty but im yet to try it. the way I look at it the price was right so even if they only last 2 years I'll get my moneys worth.
