if you looking at the cheap hid conversion ones, they are not worth it. I still have them installed but they don't light up the road good enough. Sometimes have to turn on to high beam just to be able to see something.

That sucks man, which kind did you buy? I read the rep on the guys selling them and most of them is like 99% positive. By the way did you find one that hooks directly to harness or did you have to cut the wires? Those xenon lights look so cool. By the way ive took out the pop up headlights and made some of my own custom wait untill you guys see the pics on these things.

Many of the cheap kits use sub standard bulbs and ballasts ...
Avoid this one : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Parts...em350072136494

It says 2 year warranty , but when the ballasts die they say send them back , then they say these have been abused , sorry no warranty ... Told me that water had got in them ...

Thanks for the info venge. Was that one dim as well? How long did it last? I'm in a tough spot though I'm really on a budget. Can someone tell me one they would recomend?

They went out completely after 2 months ... I installed for a buddy , you'd think the ballasts should be sealed < I installed them in a very protected spot ...

I bought mine from Oznium.com they are very bright , unfortunately he no longer sells them ... the ebay ones were about 3/4s as bright as mine side by side ... mine are also much bluer and have a nicer beam pattern ...

Know anybody else that sells them? By the way im having two projector headlights in each place where the pop ups used to be, might make up for the lack of brightness a little.
