Okay well i messed up....

I ordered my 55 watt hids from ddm and i messed up and chose the the 9005 bulb, but at the time i thought that was my low beam, but actually that is the hi beam bulb, if i was to purchase a h11 bulb which is the low beam will that bulb plug into my ballast or are the ballast bulb specific? Thanks

You can just order the bulbs, the 55 watt ballast is interchangeable with different bulbs. MAKE SURE YOU ORDER A NEW WIRE HARNESS AT THE SAME TIME. Wire harnesses are needed for sure for a 55 watt ballast.

Yep, the relay is part of the harness. Your Tahoe is looking clean bro, and the HIDs will be a nice addition.
What color are you going with? Just my opinion, but I would stay under 7000K for the best lighting quality and looks.

when i was looking at the chart it said the 55 watt makes the light look alot whiter than the 35 watt, i went with the 10000k 55 watt bulbs

In my opinion, the 7000K 55 watt HIDs are the perfect color. You are pretty ******* blue with 10Ks

Modded are you always on here......you must carry around a computer with you!!!

During the week I am a good amount, but not much over the weekend.
I guess the reason why it look like that is because I post to help others, instead of just reading what people say ad going about my business.
