if you want something worth the money, read up on that forum.
That stuff just looks like crap...and consider the fact you're buying a 70 dollar "HID" lighting system while ppl have spent time and good money into theirs (300-500).
...altezza world? boooo

"Don't waste you money dude."
No! You don't waste ur money at all. You just get what you pay for. Yes, not thing can compare to HID, but it's way better than what so called Xenon or super white plasma bulbs that cost you $ 70-$80 buck; such as PIAA. I've bought lights from this seller twice, and I'm very pleasant to buy from him again in the future.

looks like junk to me... all it does is increase the halogen wattage which isn't safe... even 100/80w halogen bulbs aren't safe, eventually the stock 9004 wiring harness will burn out... don't waste your money.
i'd say, save up $300 for a McCulloch 5300k kit on eBay... u don't want anything over 6000k. Those HID kits are junk...

HID KITS WITHOUT PROJECTORS ARE GARBAGE. YOU CANNOT USE THEM SAFELY IN A REFLECTOR HOUSING. CARS WITHOUT PROJECTORS AND HIDS INSTALLED FROM THE FACTORY HAVE REFLECTORS SPECIFICALLY BUILT TO CONTAIN THE MASSIVE AMOUNT OF LIGHT THEY PUT OUT. OUR HEADLIGHTS WERE NOT DESIGNED FOR IT.
McColluch kits are CRAP. Do NOT buy them. They are one of the worst brands you could ever possible buy and I cannot believe people actually spend money on that sh|t.
Redteam I DARE you to take a picture of your beam pattern at night. Drive up to a white wall 15-20ft away and take a picture of the light against the wall. Seriously I dare you.
And I have to mention, you paid $389 for that crap? I paid $350 SHIPPED for TRUE HIDs out of a Mercedes, PROJECTORS AND ALL.

Email Davide Shannahan at ptcfact@bellsouth.net I got them from him, as well as a few of my friends as well. He's a great guy to do business with.

[QUOTE=formz]Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but that HID kit is absolutel garbage. That picture proves how much glare you sending off in every which way direction (more importantly, into the eyes of everyone coming at you).

SO true. I had HID's in my car too. I am back to stockers and actually happier than when i had that massive amouont of uncontrolled light. Its all about quality verse quantity, but some people are just "blinded by the light" No pun intended.
