Quick HID question

Those of you that ordered from DDM. How long did it take to get them? They say they are located in Southern cali on their website but the tracking number they gave me shows something shipping out of china 3 days ago but it hasn't even left china yet. Is this normal? I figured I would have received them by now

Yes it's normal. They have to ship from China since they can't legally sell these in the states.

Because they glare other drivers and DDM also illegally imports their HID kits into the US under a false item description.

DDM has been having problems, they basically quit selling them from there store in Cali thats why they get shipped from china. At least thats what I was told...my buddy had to wait 2 weeks to get his and they ended up being the wrong ones.

None can legally sell HID conversion kits in the US. Those that still have stock on hand can get them out quicker until those run out, then guess where they will come from......
