    My guess is you are doing it wrong if none of them work.

    yes, those should just plug in and go. although my 194's took a bit to "charge up" before they started working.

    the 194s are leds so if you plug them in backwards, they wont work. Just turn them around! And i love my DDM fogs and headlights. THey work great.

    I've ordered bulbs from them before and the glass casing on the hid bulb was larger than spec, didn't fit in my housing, also the bulbs were horribly mismatched and out of color. They were supposed to be 5000k, and were almost an orange red, and very dim.

    Yeah for sure. Ive ordered quite a few things from DDM and ben very happy. Make sure the bulbs work by testing them in the sockets that work and make sure you have the polarity right with your HIDs.

    DDM has been big in the 3000GT/Stealth world for many years and I don't think I have seen one issue from them. The only complaint people had were not getting instructions.

    Maybe the polarity is reversed on the HIDs?

    Only issue I had with mine were lack of instructions, but I figured it out ok. I love them. Inexpensive and from what I can tell, pretty good quality.
