Prolumen HID Kit

Anyone used this hi/lo kit from these guys for a 00-01 Max?

http://www.ddmtuning.com/products/Pr...it-103-85.html

Anyone have any other recommendations for quality kits?

TIA.

Looking to pick up some HID soon also...after shipping, the one you posted will be about $115.

For whatever its worth, there are group deals by Umintza for $50-$100 and by Operatic for $130. I'm cant really figure out what the difference is between all these, if any, but when I buy I'll go with one of the group deals unless the price difference is huge. Always good to support the sponsors and always nice to go with reputable sellers from the org

i got my 35w H3 kit from them during end of december and its still running like new.. haven't had a problem with it so far.. only thing i didn't like was how long it took for them to ship it.. but that was because a lot of ppl ordered from them and they were in back order and it was during christmas time.. but for the price, you can't really beat it.. i got it for $54.xx shipped!

I have bought 3 digital slim kits which have been installed in my fathers 325i, my mothers 2006 4runner and I have a 50 watt slim kit. All of them have been going strong for over 6 months. So far so good with my 50 watt kit

You can mount them almost anywhere under the hood and they look nicer (cleaner). Those are the only advantages.

Hence the name....I was wondering if it had to do with the bulb size/fitment. But thanks again.
