Default HID's for sale

I ordered an HID kit for about 150 bucks and decided i don't want to use it, so i want to sell it. It is an 8000k HID kit that i'm selling for $75 bucks to whoever wants it. I'll accept payments through paypal only. The bulbs are H11's and meant for the Quad lamp system, meaning the headlights with 2 bulbs per headlight.

To bad I don't know what an HID kit is. What do you mean by 8000k? Thats 80,000 (thousand) in value/units. Do you mean watts?

HID = High Intensity Driving (lights) usually you see them on your higher end vehicles, lights usually look bright white or with a blue tint to them. They're a lot brighter than stock. 8K is the Kelvin temp which deals with the color temp. 8K will have a blue tint, 6K will be bright white.

Understandable that you're trying to get some money back, but you might want to try another site or ebay. This forum already has offers to get them New for $52 shipped with warranty.

Might want to list the brand, etc. Not all HID kits are equal. Cancelers?

Come on, you can't put statements out there like that and knock a company if you're having problems. I have mine on and my FM works just fine. Maybe people are not connecting them correctly or installing them in the wrong locations which is causing interference?

So for 52 shipped and with a warranty, can you really beat that?

Wrong, High Intensity DISCHARGE. I think the sylvania's silverstars give you better than adequate lighting over the OEM bulbs, and no problems with bulb frequency messing with your radio.

OEM HID's are "projectors" vs. Ram's chrome "reflectors". Reputable vendors don't promote HID's in reflector housings. To avoid glare issues, beam must be aimed extremely low (therefore ineffective). Projectors not yet available for 4th Gen quads.
