    Yes they are...they are just aimed differently, so the highs will lets you see a lot further away.

    Nah you can run it no prob. You could either have the bi-xenon in one bulb housing, and just have a dummy bulb in the other, or you could run xenon lows in one housing and halogen highs in the other. (probably would require some wiring).

    I installed my DDM H4 Hi/Lo (35W 5000K) and H10 Fog Lights (35W 5000k) yesterday. One of my H10 bulbs was blown straight out of the box, so I sent DDM an email w/ picture of bulb, and they responded with a personal email and already have the replacement bulb in the mail on its way. Install went great, took a total of 2 hours for full 4 bulb install. I will get some pics up as soon as I get my replacement bulb. Just wan't to reiterate that DDM Tuning is a great company and will be going through them for the Wife's Corolla in the near future.

    Bummer. I guess the silver lining is the testament to the design and engineering behind our trucks and the quality of product of DDM Tuning. On a side note, deer are a-holes!

    Yep, I'm running them in Depo headlights from ebay. No issues. Like was mentioned earlier, for any given wattage, HID's give off way less heat than halogen, so no need to worry.
