Which HID kit to get (ebay?)
I'm looking for a HID kit for my high beams and a H1 kit for off road lights. There are so many to choose from on ebay and I have no idea which ones are the better ones. I see so many trucks in traffic with burned out HIDs.
Somebody told me to look for electronic ballasts, that's all I know.
Any advice appreciated.

Be sure to get a relay harness for each kit and they will provide them,

The more anyone sells of any type of product, the more bad things you'll hear. especially if it's your own backyard...
ALL CONVERSION KITS are somewhat cheap. unless you want to spend $300 on McCulloch then go ahead, but i'd rather buy 2 kits off HIDExtra for a full spare set at half the cost of the other brand. I've had mine for a while now with no issue's.
Another problem with ALL conversion kits regardless of brand, are the bulbs. Unless you do a retro-fit with Original style HID bulbs (i.e D2S, D!R..etc) they will have less quality salts&gases in them for lasting and producing a high output. Most aftermarket bulbs last about 400-600hours as compared to OEM style bulbs like D2S that last 2500-3000hours.
When I talk about conversion kits, I am referring to bulbs that are mimicking halogen casings such as H13, 9006, 9005...etc Those aren't OEM style HID bulbs(True genuine HIDs) and are made by inferior Chinese companies.
I'm sure if you didn't like their product they would refund you!

Thanks for your guys opinions, I think I'm gonna give them a try. I just missed their 40 percent off promo, I'm just gonna wait for the next one. That's cheap enough to throw it away if it doesn't work.

I will definitely give kudos for HIDextra. The product I received was great quality for what it was, and their shipping was just absolutely fantastic. I would certainly buy there again, and I would recommend them to anyone looking to purchase.
