Looks great!! I'd definitely be interested in these. Been waiting for projector hid's with a nice cutoff.
Would you have an option of selling the kit without the D2S bulbs? I have a set already from a previous project that are just sitting in my closet.
Nice job on the bi-xenon's!!!

Indigo why wont you post a final price? I have asked as well as a few others. BTW, are you including the actual headlight housing? I ask because I own a 95 Max and JUST bought a pair of 97-99 headlights. If that is the case that is fine I can always sell them. If anyone else knows the answer to this question feel free to answer.

ok heres the deal. First dont forget my bad grammar cause im from south america. Well...theres two ways to buy this kit:
1. Headlamp assembly(you should keep the black holder where the cristal and base are. I will take a pic for this). And the proyector installed. So you can install your own 9004 normal bulb or 9004 retrofit hid bulbs. It can be installed easy. (I dont recomend this for normal bulbs cause the Lumens is not the same like HID bulbs(1800 vs 3200 aprox.) And the light coming from the projector will not be the same % of light on the road than HID D2S bulbs.
This will cost you aprox. $345 plus shipping.
2. You can get the combo...i mean, you will recive the headlamp assembly(with the base) plus, 2 OEM BMW Ballast made by HELLA and imported from Germany with 2 D2S 85122 philips bulbs with 4300k and 3200 lumens. All necessary wires and my typical manual and the video where i will install all the kit on my maxima again...for better and easy installation.
The price for this is. $450-500 plus shipping.
Heres the other problem to think. Im not making this price formal...maybe will be more cheap...i have to talk with the person who is selling me the parts for better price and then more cheap price for you, The second thing is...i have more than 300 order from USA, Europe, South America...i post a lot of pics on other forums, etc...so im planning the open a Factory and really make this things for big volume.....so if i can do that i should move to Mexico where is more easy to make this real. So i will send you the kit from there(Mexico) anyway you dont have to worry about that cause i should put a small value etc to avoid fees and customs problem.
So you can see...is not like making a cake for weekend im planning to make this a huge business to me and of course guys you will have the best price cause i own my max..and every people who owned...is welcome.
As i told you...i have a pair here ready to ship, i will post a message for the person that i will sale this. Just make a bid and thats it...i dont want to make a profit for this...so good luck. AND PLS BE PATIENCE I REALLY WANT to give you this stuff for you....i really love my car and i know you will think the same way like me after you get one.
"JeffesonM " you really make me think about this...afte i saw your post: "if you have a day job, I'd suggest you quit it now. you're going to be a very busy man "

i'm having a vision...a lot of hid kit in the for sale forum from my understanding the difference between the two kits is the light element, the cheap one uses your stock bulbs and the other one uses the hella one. I could be wrong, but i think that's what it is. the ebay price for the hella light ONLY (without a lens/refractor/ballasts/etc.) is about $200, I think, so the pricing is more than reasonable.
man, i sure as hell hope a lot of people sell their HID kits. sometimes I'll be driving at night and double-check to make sure my lights are on--that's how dim they appear. i'd love one of the older 4300K kits.

if i'm hearing this correctly we can use our 9004 HIDS. Although thats a great price for hids he's giving us, with the trouble i'll have selling my kit i rather use it in the projector headlights. Dam you'll need a massive supply. So ummm, dont mean to bring up an unwanted topic but....how are warranties on these?

if we can use our stock 9004 bulbs, or even our 9004 HIDs, then how is it possible to use the d2s/d2r bulbs he is able to provide? Arent they not the same? I mean Ive seen them both and they are not the same? Hmmm
And yeah, what is the warranty on this?
Indigomax, you are going to have A LOT of orders on these, maybe not the HID kit, but guaranteed for the headlight housings. Assuming you already have a job, it is going to be difficult for you to start mass producing these, and you setting up a factory and moving to mexico is a good investment, but sounds like it will take time, i dont think these will be able for selling for quite a while then. But, you are the man, kudos on your fine work. I still want to buy! But now that I think that I can keep my HID kit, I'll only buy the housings :-D

Or we just need someone to manufacture clearer corner housings. Custommaxima was going to like a year ago and then decided not to.
Not that that is surprising, but still.
