Author Message   Vosnick52 Posted on Friday, December 18, 2009 - 01:33 pm:        Does anyone have better directions and pics since I can't figure out the ones that came with it? I am in the process of installing the HID kit. Thanks   Ccryder Posted on Friday, December 18, 2009 - 02:44 pm:        Did you check out this download? http://ddmtuning.com/support/index.php?_m=download s&_a=view&parentcategoryid=1&pcid=0&nav=0 Let me know if I can help. I have an r versus your cr.   Froggy Posted on Friday, December 18, 2009 - 03:23 pm:        The H7 guide on their website is perfect, thats pretty much the way its done on the CR. Only omitted steps are removing the headlamp assembly obviously.   Vosnick52 Posted on Friday, December 18, 2009 - 05:03 pm:        Those were some awesome directions but were did you guys mount the ballast? It's a tight fit in there.   Froggy Posted on Friday, December 18, 2009 - 05:09 pm:        I just stuffed it in the flyscreen. I didn't bother to secure it, as my cigarette outlet, phone charger, GPS wiring, and soon to be installed heated grips prevent the thing from moving   Vosnick52 Posted on Friday, December 18, 2009 - 05:23 pm:        Does the ballast get warm or hot? I was thinking of good ol velcro.   Froggy Posted on Friday, December 18, 2009 - 05:32 pm:        Warm at best. You couldn't melt an ice cube with it. Also FYI, the high beam has a different bulb holder than the low beam, so a normal H7 kit will not work.   Vosnick52 Posted on Friday, December 18, 2009 - 05:56 pm:        I put a PIAA extreme white 4000k bulb in for the high beam. Holy shit is that HID bulb bright. When I first turned it on I was looking straight at it. It took me a minute until I could see again   Froggy Posted on Friday, December 18, 2009 - 07:02 pm:        Didn't you get the little piece of paper saying something like "Caution: Do not look directly into the light, as it uses similar technology as an arc welder"?   Nillaice Posted on Friday, December 18, 2009 - 08:39 pm:        zip ties hold stuff purdee guud fer mi   Hdwrenchtx Posted on Saturday, December 19, 2009 - 08:07 pm:        installed mine today that is the xblights taillight on the garage door   Micro Posted on Sunday, December 20, 2009 - 12:04 am:        what color temp are you using hdwrenchtx. thinking of going 4300k on mine. i want something close to what the high end euro cars come with from the factory. lotta guys here running 6000K or higher. looks like bluish light to purple to me. i think that color just messes with my eyes. bright as hell but i still feel like i can't see as well.   Hdwrenchtx Posted on Sunday, December 20, 2009 - 11:37 am:        this is what i am running: BIKESINGLEHPH7-8000K DDM 35W & 55W Single Motorcycle HID System Options: Wattage : 55W (+$7.50) Bulb Type : H7 Bulb Color : 8000K low beam only
