Default HID ???'s for you all that own them

Just curious on what brand people are running and how long have you been running them for? i want to buy a set, but I don't want to buy some cheap ones that will burn out in a few moths, I rather pay a little bit more and know that I will have a good set, thanks for any replies.

Don't buy Goldeneye HID product, I have it since December 2006, I've notice my HID dims, unlike when I first install it. I recommend:

www.hidplanet.com if you are going to retro fit your headlight...

www.mobilehid.com

or GHC brand HID but I dunno the website for it....

I guess that all I know...



www.hidplanet.com: Heard its great and you can read their forums for people who knows a lot about HIDs.

Good luck

G, when I got my set of HID's from there, I ordered the 8000k set. I noticed that they are mostly blue only when they turn on. I got a second set from Ed at Cockpit, and ordered the 6000k set. It was the same thing. I really am not to fond of the ones from oznium. Look into the one's Ed has from cockpit. I could even show you mine if you would like.

I had McCullough in my other car, and they were great and never had any problems. now i have Pilots in my tC. there pretty good too. most HIDs come w/at least a year warranty, so either way, there bound to last more than 6 months.

You're Welcome! I would suggest you to do a retrofit and you will love it because of HID quality projector. Also it last very long time and it looks really good. Good Luck :D
