ebay replacement D2R xenon bulbs
has any one bought any of their replacement Xenon D2R bulbs from ebay that can range from like $20-$40 bucks shipped ? If so anyone have good luck or bad luck with them ?
Here are a few examples http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/D2R-H...Q5fAccessories http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Nissa...Q5fAccessories http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/D2S-D...Q5fAccessories |
i have the 8K's had em for 4 months now, and they work perfect, i forgot what i paid, it was the vendor that had a green fast shipping as the main pic with the bulb in the back... when it gets darker ill take a pic
|
eh, you get what you pay for i guess
|
i did... i paid for some 8K HID bulbs and thats what i got
|
i got mine from the seller HIDKING or something.. they work great.. have been on the car for 7 months or so.. it was $40 shipped IIRC
|
Be careful who you buy from, been screwed over several times within the past 6 months, everybody on eBay thinks D2C is D2R. Most sellers will send you D2C if you ask for D2R. I gave up and went with DDMTuning.com, was well worth it.

well 100% of the HID bulbs or kit sellers that i've seen on ebay tells you to include in your notes what type bulbs/Kit you want to avoid confusion because they have almost every bulb in stock, so i would hope you would contact the seller to verify your bulb type

I've ordered several kits and bulbs from a seller on ebay, xenonwholesale88. I've never had a problem with them and they ship out their items very quickly. They also have every kind of bulb in stock so you have to specify before you buy. I've made several purchases using them and have nothing but good things to say, so if you wanna give them a try go for it, here's a link. They're about $25.99 free shipping.

get the phillips which are oem, you won't be disapointed. A lot of the colored ones like 6k 8k etc will last about 6-10 months and start to go pink.

i bought some on ebay for my old civic. usually the ebay ones are reputable ones to deal with so have no hesitation when saving money haha

Old post, but just to verify - D2R would be what I'm looking for, correct?
I'm looking here. Thinking I want the 8000K bulbs because I like the almost-blue look of newer HIDs rather than just bright white. |

Yeah, it seems like you get a slightly different color depending on where you get your bulbs.... I got 8000K's from ddmtuning.com and they are just very slightly blue... some 8000K's seem really blue...

Crap. Now I'm debating between the 8k and 10k... although I know the 10k won't be as bright. Hmmm.
|
Finally ordered my HIDs. Decided to go with the 10k because I want the dramatic blue. Almost went 12k, but decided I have enough police attention with my lead foot. Don't need more attention from strange purple headlights...
|
i bought some 12k and it seems like when its humid or rainy outside the passenger side headlight wont turn on i have to keep turning it on and off till it finally goes on....so i thought maybe its the igniter so i popped my stockies back in and they turn on every time....i also paid 15.99 for mine so what do you want....lesson learned

Good luck with the cheap bulbs man They tend to suck sure there are people who have them last long but its just not worth it to me I go with Philips.
|
They look fine to me! (But yes, I did save the original bulbs just in case.)
|
DDM uses the same ****ty Chinese bulbs you can get on ebay for $13/pair. Get some proper 85126 D2R bulbs for $50/pair for the best light.
