Ummm, just ordered Bomz CAI off eBay... and it says that HIDs are included too!!

It says that a pair of 9004 Xenon HID Headlight Bulbs are included and that these retail at around $15. HUH!?!? I thought HIDs cost like 100s of dollars. Take a look.

Can someone please explain to me what I am going to get, if they really work, and if I should just chuck the biatches in the trash as soon as I pull them from the box? Thanks.

9004 = NOT HID, period. 9004 for is the code for an older type of Halogen bulb, the type that the 4th gen Maxima uses.

$15 = NOT HID, period.

Bulbs = NOT HID, period.

They're not OEM, they're cheap ricer bulbs that are going to burn out your harness, dont even put them on.
