cheaper ebay hids

I know this topic has been discussed but I would like to see how many people actually used these and how they held up and how pleased people are that bought these. Sorry and to specify hids for the fog lights.

All the cheap kits on eBay come from China, and all use the replica Philips ballast. As far as realiability, it *should work for at least one year no problem. And even if it dies after one year, it is so cheap so just buy another kit. Just make sure to get a kit with a relay harness to get power from your battery directly.

No NO ....that link is perfectly fine i just checked it right now there is nothing wrong with it....you can go on craigslist and check it yourself...go to nyc and auto parts type in HID put in for maximum price 100 you'll get a few but pick the one that says 95...I am in no way trying to swindle anyone ...I'm straight up and trying to look out for him the way people on here look out for me....

and instead of doing something negative you could have just said listen it's a bad link and I would have checkd it out for you...

+ how am I trying to swindle him if i told him to check it out himself ..you can even check me out on NYCMaximas...I am standup!!!!

Nismo i checked the link it's working fine if it's not let me know or just follow what i said above so that you can see for yourself...if you need the # I'll get it for you too

on top of that i said that i would do everything through paypal and send him reciepts for eeevvrryything...

EDIT even said he can call so he could verify everything himself!!

You should get ed for talking !!!

choiiii....you're dumb, slow, and/or silly. Stop talking now. Link works fine for me too. Maybe if you learned how to use a computer correctly you'd have better luck in coming across as "smart". But then again, don't learn how to use it, as I work in IT. Since people like you don't know what the hell they are doing, I get paid good money. Thank you .

I can vouch for the following: MaximaKid, NYCM, and CellTech. Go pick something else to flame on, but please wear your flame suit for safety reasons. Thank you!

Maximakid isnt trying to scam anyone. He's only trying to help the guy out by getting him a nice deal on a HID kit.

so b/c its a bad link he should get banned?? You need to work on how you justify things. Btw, the link works just fine and maximakid was trying to look out for someone who was looking for HIDs

I have a few post on here...not on NYCMaximas...and I said we can do the transaction through paypal so he can know that I'm serious...that way he can have proof of purchase has reciept for the transaction and has all my info...THE LINK WORKS as everyoonnnee has vouched for. the link ALSO has all the info address phone number and everything so if he chose to he could have gone directly to them himself..i didn't even have to be a middle man...

I think you should listen to the people on here and stop writing....or like kzoosho said RETHINK YOUR EXISTENCE!!!

The link is working for me. Maybe before you try to get some banned you should check a little futher. Maybe your firewall is not allowing you to open the link. That **** happens to me at times.

no problem nismo..i think you thread was kind of hi jacked...lolz...sorry

but yea the ebay kits working fine for a lil while then the ballast starts to go ...I know from experience...you'll might get good ones that last you...but it's better to spend a lil somthing and get a kit from a local retailer that you can call up anytime if you experience difficulty as opposed to trying to get in contact with someone on ebay where all you have is an email address...

if you ever have any question hit me up on aim or PM...ttyl and good luck!!

I would get 6000k. It's the best combination of looks and output. The higher k you go...8000, 10000, etc. the lesser the output.

I have 6000k in my retrofitted TL projectors:

Not that I think you were wrong but I just thought it was funny that you had whine about it.

That has nothing to do with why I posted. I would have defended him whether or not he made that tread on NYCM if I had seen this on here first.

The fact still remains that, that loser up there jumped to an assumption incorrectly. Whether or not someone whined about it has no bearing on anything.

Oh and watch who you call a newbie. I've been around this game as long as you have. You wouldn't want to be talking about yourself now would you?

Perhaps it's time to flame you? Seeing as you've been here so long...you probably have a flame suit handy right?
