catz zeta 00 system

Does anyone have any idea where I can purchase Catz Zeta 00 system for a 2k1 max, at a good price? I am interested in the complete system
or just the ballasts.
Thank You for the help!

I've seen them in action on a 2K max. It looks "slightly" brighter. When they fire up, you'll see the lights turn on, then the Zeta ballast kick in and it bumps up the output slightly. With the price of HID's now, (<$400) you should go real HID.

Yeah I was that person who said they are crap. Because I used to be a Catz Zeta dealer, and their system is nonsense. I mean all it does it raise the voltage levels to a constant 14.4v from 12v. This gives you about a 70% increase in wattage to the bulbs. Problem here is the bulb runs hotter and burns out quicker.

And Hell no does it come anywhere near a HID kit. Dont spend the 200-250 on this kit. It is a udder waste of money.

Do they have different products? Are you talking about all their products? They have a group deal for the Altimas right now for H1 HIDS for $400.

they sell/make aftermarket lighting. the zeta just don't work well.
the quality of their product is good..not bad at all..IMO.
H1 HIDs enh? hogan may want to jump on this thread and give some HID lighting info. are they doing just H1 or can they do others? 9004, H4, 9006? etc etc.
TIA

Here's one thread on the true HID kit from Catz. It lists for $550, but the group deal for the Altima is $400. Apparently it's a true HID and not that cheaper Zeta $200 light upgrade.
