Looking to purchase a cheap ebay HID kit. Please dun flame guys...

i know that i get what i pay for....but i just need recommendation on which seller has a more reliable kit than the rest or which seller you have your kit from and if it is still running strong?

 

Why not go with one of the forum sponsors?

 

+1

 

forum sponsors are quite expensive... they run about $200 a kit... a cheap ebay kit does the same job really... no difference at all... im running a cheap ebay kit... havent had problems with it since... any ebay kit will do just fine. i got mine for around $70 shipped. which ever kit you decide to get, have fun and post some pictures.

 

XenonDepot and MobileHID are always great. Even though they might be a little more "pricey" than a typical cheap ebay kit, at least they have customer service, they answer on time, and they're knowledgeable about their product. Plus, they honor their warranties and you don't have to worry about them closing out on you.

And sorry to be a party pooper, I've just heard lots of mixed things from some people. I used to want a PnP kit, but after I spent days, weeks, and months reading up on some stuff (mostly at hidplanet), PnP kits just don't seem feasible. In all honesty, you would thank yourself if you did a retrofit, it's worth the extra $$$!

In any case, if you're still looking for a good PnP ebay kit I'm not one to preach the search button (I find it sometimes useless), but here are a few of the more "recent" threads about ebay kits/vendors:

And scan any thread titles that even mention 'HID' in them, you'll likely find some good info. Hope you find what you're looking for.

 

Forum vendors have a reputation to uphold as negative feedback on their products can be posted/discussed on this forum. I believe the customer has more "say" if anything is wrong with a product purchased from one of the vendors. One of the forum vendors even offer a 3 year warranty.

Ebay vendors don't really have a reputation to uphold. If they get enough negative feedback all they have to do is open another account. Yes most of them offer 1 year warranties, but how long will they even be around to honor them if anything happens?

This is just my opinion on this subject.

 

yea the ebay HID imo does the same thing...just without the customer service

 

mobilehid.com has a CL special. Check with cliffud.

 

u can buy 2 or 3 hid in ebay for 1 from the vendors

 

I just got kit from 5000K hid it claims to be from japan. On the box said tokyo japan. Seems to be good and shiping is from us.
