Would you do this again? LOL

Looks Fantastic man...

Thanks block8head. I only dremel the left headlight and enlarged the mounting holes to the projector to align it, didn't do anything to the right side except enlarging the holes on the projector. I did opened both projectors and did minor adjustments to the cutoff because of bowing on both sides.

Since I learned to attach photos I figure you might enjoy some before pics of my installed before texting with block8head. The fxr tend to ride upwards to the right. Last photo is thru the windshield. All photos before and after are approx 30+-feet .

The silverados are fortunate to be able to install the frx projectors. It's trial n error and you gotta have patience. Now that is just for the projectors...with the ddm kits and morimoto kit, you gotta be persistent when problems arises..im a newbie with the hids but it comes down to the connection to battery, ground, connections to each other, ballasts touching the bulbs, and ecms. I done so much reading from other hid sites that r available. No matter how you look at it motomedic is right on the money. Gotta order 2 kits for ddm...morimotos has its own troubles. They r all made overseas at a discounted $

A little alcohol goes a long way...thanks to moto and block8head for contributing to this thread, without there guidance and assistance , everyone would have more complications with hid installations..not to mention projectors installs.

 

Block8head is the first to do the fxr projectors...u the MAN!

I am having problems with my hi beams HID's from coming on I installed the low and hi beams kits from DDM and I have gone through these 20 pages but seems no one is installing these. I have a 2014 Silverado 6.2 LTZ I have the relay harness, error correctors, blaster and 9005 blubs. My low beams work great after missing up on passenger side hooking the bulb up black to red blew out blaster on that side. I have tried swapping out relays and fuses and reattaching up hi beam with the red to other color and black to black. My lows stay on when I try to get the hi beams on I get the blue symbol on my dash but no hi beams.

I just installed the oem high beam bulbs and they don't come on also the fog lights don't come on even with the high beams off. I have the whole front grille off and about to install it back on low beams work. Where are the fuses or relay for the high beams this is my first truck always a car guy.

it's been 6 months since installing the 55w ddm kit. 80amp relay that came with ddm kit had to be replaced twice. I replaced it with a 40amp relay better quality and no problems since. I also had the right headlight blinking rapidly so I replaced the canceller on the right side and it also happened on the left side a short while later so I also replaced the left side. both left and right side cancellers were replaced with after market from ebay and not ddm.

Exactly why I'm not "sold" on these kits...too amateur-ish right now.

Just spend the $ and get a Morimoto kit. Sometimes, you really do get what you pay for.

Aside from the capacitor issues mine have been great. I ordered 2 kits but that's because I'm planning on retrofitting the fog lights. Still waiting to do that soon. Waiting till it goes to the shop to get the oil changed and oil life remaining computer module changed out. I don't feel like hearing them say that it's broken becuase of the fogs being different. So as soon as I have time to do that I'll change the fogs

I bitched it on my customer satisfaction survey from GMC.

Important!

 

My headlights will not turn on right now. Does anyone have any suggestions? I have already checked all connections. I unplugged and replugged everything. Changed out the relay. Tried manually turning on the headlights. Nothing happened. I just disconnected the battery and hoping that helps. Just wanted to take the time to post while I am waiting a few minutes before reattaching battery.

    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
