To get HID you either have to have a kit yourself, or get a car with it from the factory. You can purchase an aftermarket HID kit Here, and while a good kit is expensive, its worth EVERY penny. HID's are something useful, that you can see and enjoy on your car every day.

Before purchasing this we should make a sure its not defected headlights with bubbling issue, maybe they trying to sell them out with Discount* before to put on sale new ones without bubbling issue?

After you put the discount code in (at the shopping cart) the $600 discount applies.

@ Herofmine...I also have the same set up. You will loose the AFS capabilities once you install the NEW LED strip headlights. I'm on the fence.

Not worth losing the afs for me, it's one of the most useful parts and also one of my favorite parts of my car. I also love watching passengers faces when they see the beams sweeping across the road! Wish they made the LED with afs though .

yup i would not sacrifice AFS just for LED strips, better to get F sport exhaust for that money, i wish they could do some discounts on F sport exhaust

you guys are really hyping this AFS b.s... from what I read it barely does anything because the projectors suck period. my question is are these the non defected bubble ones and if not hows the output, or else I can always get a retrofit with way better projectors and cutoff for that much.

yea but thats like saying buy the fsport springs before revision just because there is a warranty...if you can avoid it all together warranty or not then thats what a consumer will do. I honestly can say I have never noticed my AFS actually doing anything and yes I do have it so loosing that would not bother me however a blinking AFS will since I am OCD about my cars :/
