I just tried to call VVME and the woman says (in broken english)...sorry sir...I can't understand you. You will have to obtain your assistance through email only. lol

Chevmeister - did you buy direct from them? Their website doesn't list 2008 gmc (that I could find) so I didn't know what parts to order. If not, who did you buy them from? Thanks!

I have been recommended to Dan by multiple people, i have only dealt with Bob there so far, but my experience has been positive... i had talked to a guy with a heavy accent once trying to get a quote on some parts and never gotten a call back once... that was a good while back though, and happens in many shops all the time. I'm sure Dan will get you fixed up :thumb:

thats cause they are located in China lol. when you buy them it ships directly from china to you. Ive heard many horror stories about DDM jsut for FYI. they have bulb issues, and ballist issues as well as poor customer service after purchasing their product.

I bought through one of their eBay accounts. $40 shipped for my lows $45 shipped for my highs. A friend of mine has an 07 nbs, all you need to know is the bulb #. I ordered 9005 & 9006. I know the 07^ trucks are different but I'm not sure what number it is.

I have a CCTV camera system from VVMEs sister company Visonari, another cheap product, and I did have one die, but they did send me a replacement. That system is running 24/7 with 8 cameras, and it works fine. My point being you can get warranty even though they are from overseas.

Good Info - thanks. I'll email them or shop on ebay to locate the bulb #s. I want all my lights to match so I'm going for highs/lows/fogs.

Not to stray.... Where is the best place to get them? I damn sure dont want purple! Just a nice clean white.

You want 5000k or 6000k bulbs... any higher than 6000 starts turning blue, then purple, then violet.... The higher you stray from 6000, the less useable light you get. My friend's 8000k HID's put out noticably less useable light than my 6000k's. The purple ones are just plain retarded IMO... Sorry marcusrushing90 :)

What was the issue on the flow valve? did you cover shipping both ways?
Click to expand...
First it was for a 04 instead of 03, no big deal, noones fault. Called up and yall shipped me another one 2 day express 129.20 total. Put it in and the orifice plug was loose and fell out within 1000 feet of driving and partially locked the converter so I had to pull it and ya shipped me another one but I had to pay full price 95.99 for it. Just checked the invoice and yall didn't charge shipping on the second one. My bad. I then had to pay to send the wrong and junk one back. So basically I paid shipping 3x to get the right part. I'm not really too worried about that. What made me mad at the time was getting the runaround big time and trying to understand the chinaman on the phone.


Sent from my Evo while driving.
