    Just keep throwin' money at it.
    I have an older set of 900xs' on my 2nd gen tacoma that are in good shape, but the bulbs are fading and need to be replaced soon. They are spots are lack throw past my stock headlights. I have converted a few sets of Hella 700ff's in the past to HID using a DDM tuning kit. Its been a few years, and sounds like DDM has become hit and miss. I was wondering if anyone here has converted a set of 900xs' (a few people in Australian forums have, but doesn't seem to have caught on here)? If so, what kit did you buy from? I am getting mixed reviews after a day of searching and reading different reviews from both here, Ih8mud, and Amazon.

    Would the price of conversion be equal or greater than new LED spots?

    That's what I'm debating too. I could just sell them and pick up some LEDs.
