There was a thread a couple weeks ago about these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...7433769&rd=1,1
I heard these were a good deal and no probs. Good quality too. I'm not sure first hand but I will be buying these instead of the $450 ones from xenon depot.

^^for those in the ebay link..

**BEWARE** Some vehicles require more work than others due to their unique bulb housings. Possible removal of the bumper required - Check in your Vehicle owners manual.


we dont have to remove our bumpers do we ?

Ok i just ordered my HID kit from xenondepot.com.
I went with genuine phillips 6000k instead of going with the cheap ebay brand.
I will take pics after installation, thanks guys.

I bought both of my HID kits (2 cars) from AACstyle.com. Thier 8000k, plug and play kit, digital ballest just like phillips and all the other expensive brands and I only paid $236 shipped. Best on the market as far as I'm concerned.

Not hard at all if you buy a plug and play kit. You have to mount the ballest somewhere but thats it.

Got mine from my audio shop. $300 installed, and it took them about 20 minutes.

I got my first HID kit (McCulloch) from internet seller. Later I got my 2nd HID kit from Xenon Depot. I really like the XD kit. The light output is much brighter than my 1st kit.
