    My HID kit from EBAY

    6000k 35 watt HI/LOW HID kit.

    This is the company



    First thoughts:
    "Man this kit is cheap for a HI/LOW HID kit."
    The shipment was very fast and the quality of the wires was great but the box was ****ty.



    The ballast was super slim so you can mount them in great locations.





    JDM with normal headlamp on passenger side. EDM headlight with HID on drivers side.



    Boht HID and EDM headlamp


    Low beam Maybe it needs adjusting(They are new lights as well so that may be the case)


    High beam(I thought it was going to be HID as well. It is a dual bulb. HId lows and Halogen highs




    Finally thoughts:
    The good:
    The ballasts are super slim and can be mounted in tight spots. I mounted them where they are because I'm lazy(lol). If you wanted to you could mount them where no one would see them. The wiring is super easy and has very good quality. Shipping was super fast(2 days). Good communication with seller.

    The bad:
    I was under the assumption that this was a HI/LOW HID kit with both highs and lows as HID. They are way too blue for my liking. The light output isn't as bright as I was expecting(this could be because the headlamps are new and also because they are only 35w).

    Overall:
    They are worth the 65 shipped I paid. Would I buy them again? No. I want a more true white HID kit.

      Maybe I'm just seeing **** or maybe it takes a few times to get the bulbs to warm up nice because they are looking more white now

          they will break in actually. mine did at least.

          you should just buy a new set of bulbs for the kit you already have. then keep these 6000k as a set of back up's.

People who race cars of any kind think motorcycle racers are absolutely off theirs meds. But there's one group that everyone agrees is made up of the most extreme, the most daring, and absolutely craziest people in racing - rally racers."

                  Ok took the first true drive this morning. I can say that the dr side headlamp needs adjusting bad. Its pointing down and towards the pass side. Its not bad bad but I can tell its off. The light on the ground was white but I did see a little blue in it. I need to find a flat 100ft of ground to adjust them properly. That should be fun to find lol.

                      My jdm headlights and corners came with pigtails on all the lights. I didn't know about the adapter so I spliced wires and connected them that way.

                            i've heard the bulbs that last the longest are the single filament ones. the kit i was going to get for my 323 deleted the high beams but guaranteed a stupid ammount of hours.
