Default Ohh which HID kit's do you guys like?

This is not a color debate but there are so many kits out there, There are at least 3 on this site. Anyone have any opinions. Another board had a JDM kit, they seemed decent.

thanks

I have Mobile HIDs, great product. I installed the DDM tuning hid kit on my fiance's car and I saved almost $100 over mine. They work quite well too for $50

I have the Mobile HID ones and they're going strong even after almost two years and lots of nighttime driving!

4 for 4 for mobile HID, that's pretty good odds so far.

thanks for the feedback

Mobile HID.

I had one bulb go out and the customer service was great. I sent my old one in and he sent me a new pair for my car. No probs and no questions.

ok guys so Mobile HID sounds like the place to go... but what range did you guys get? And do you just swap these in place of the stock bulbs.. any modifications that need to be done? thanks

I've got the 4300K. Looks good and bright enough for it.

The only "mod" you'll need to do is to install the relay and running the wires. It should be pretty much self explanatory. However, make sure to remove the orange/red (or some other color lol) washer from the new HID bulb. Kept trying to shove the bulb in but it won't fit... because of the washer, haha.

Here's the thread to the VLED turn signal.

I'll probably get it the LEDs too but I just can't justify myself into paying soo much money for two light bulbs... haha.

what do you guys think of the HIDXTRA kit that is sold on here for $60. Its hard to know what's quality or not. You don't really known that your paying for a better kit or not.

I'm going to order a set today or tomorrow, advise appreciated.
thanks
