I bet they're simular to the Silverstars... Looking for something better than that. I don't feel safe driving in a car with poor lighting (compared to stock HIDs i'm used to at least). With HIDs i can see every bump on the road also.

It depends on my free time after I finish my current contract. I do the parts and help here more as a favor for the RX community and don't really make anything on selling stuff.

There is a lot on the web about these lights and they are very well lit. Supposidly 75% of the light that a hid puts out. And a very low % of the heat.

Or something along these lines..

1 year and 4 dead ballasts later, I gave it up and put a set of Silverstars in.

I have the xenon depot 4300k philips kit with the ultraslim ballasts. No complaints or problems yet. Though it was also like 500 bucks.
