HID help

[synyster]

I'm trying to figure out how to go about putting some HIDs in my 2002 explorer. I know I need 2 kits cause I want everything to be the same as it is now just brighter. I need the 9005 and 9006 kits from DDM Tuning to achieve what i want.

The question I had is would this put alot of stress on my alternator/battery and charging system or should I be fine.

HID kits actually draw LESS than stock (35w vs 55w). You'll be fine.

I have a Linc. MKX that has 9005 high beams and HID (that I installed) low beams. I didnt use the HID for high beams because they dont fire up quick and they are on/off a lot in daily driving. HID for high beams just is not too practical for a high beam.
But, you want a high bulb that shines brighter than the low beams or there isnt much use for the highs. Enter...the HIR bulb. With a little trimming of the bulb base they fit right in and are as bright/brighter than a 100watt bulb at only 65 watt amp draw.
I bought these bulbs about three years ago and used them in my previous car and transferred them to the MKX 6 mos. ago. They do last awhile and dont need a harness for the OEM wires.
If you have the Smart Junction Box pulsed lighting then I would recomend the following to get your HID system from as they supplied me with a harness w/caps. & resistors that fit the Lincolon perfectly. Not sure what your system takes.
