Philips HID Conversion Kit
All this while, everyone is saying that Philips never made HID Conversion Kit.
How wrong.
Philips does make HID Conversion kits. It just does not sell it in the USA because of the legal system.

This kit does not use Philips components. It uses Chinese made bulbs/ballasts (not saying they are bad) by a factory authorized by Philips. The problem is that you now have literally 50 people trying to sell a "Philips" HID kit and 99% of them are selling fakes.

It is like saying Lexus is not a Lexus if it was made in Canada.
Only the ones made in Japan are the true Lexus.
Agree about the ebay guys trying to scam, but not if you validate the 14 digit serial# before buying one. That way you know you are buying the genuine stuff.
I spoke to one ebay guy selling these kits and when I asked for the 14 digit serial# he responded (wow)with "No 14 digit code"

Steve, I have utmost respect for you and the products you sell but please don't give canned answers or answers that are half truth. It just doesn't sound right.

chikoo - respectfully, why don't you order the kit and check it out for yourself. I have been in business for 10 years selling HID conversion kits and have many contacts at Philips. I am familiar with this product so my answers are based on knowledge not opinion. If you have access, find a genuine German made Philips D2S capsule. You're not going to find a 14 digit serial number on the capsule.

Only those products with a label containing a 14-digit serial number are to be verified online to confirm whether the product is using genuine part from Philips or not.

You walk into a Nike shop and the shoes says it's made in China. You buy a Camry here in Australia, which is locally made yet parts are shipped from Japan.
So what gives? you should only by Nikes with lables Made in the US, or only buy Camry when they are imported direct from Japan?
I think Phillips may sell the kit but they may useparts either ballasts or bulbs sourced from overseas. If you love Phillips brand you buy what they sell.
