Love Topspeed, and the guys there are great. I bought my wedge bulbs to compliment my 7000k HID's in my Infiniti in 2001 and they let me install them in their garage. Just wish they were open earlier in the morning. When I use to run around Chicago for my last job, I would always pass by and want it to be open so I could buy more bulbs and squash air freshners from Japan.

Haha, Joey is ALWAYS grouchy...LOL!!! I'm at the shop almost everyday and technically I don't even work there, but it is a great shop and they're all good friends of mine. I remember when the skyline was BONE STOCK and was growing to the beast that it is.

Hey Jeff,

I have spent many of times waiting on the sidewalk out front (LOL). I never worried, the days were always nice out!! That place is great and always has what I crave.

I bought my first HID kit there years and years ago. They lasted quite some time. They even helped with install when I couldnt get it to fire up right. Great shop!

Got my hids from them, TechOne, they SUCKED honestly. went bakc 4-5 times for faulty ballasts..
FinallyI just gave up. Maybe it was just that batch they got, or that brand.. but either way I wont get hids from them again.

It had to be a bad batch maybe, because got my H.I.Ds from there and they're fine.
