YA2_user_GD3: Yes this is still going on! Feel free to PM me with any questions that you may have, thank you.
When do you plan to release the new model? Very interested in getting a set.

Hi everyone,

Damn I don't get e-mail notifications for new posts anymore, sorry for the late responses!!

trancedsailor: The price will go slightly up just because they are the slim digital ballasts. I'll keep you guys posted

Zangoose: Haha niiice, yep definitely I'll keep you guys posted!

ZLATE: Looks great my friend, thanks for posting pics!!

jeimusu: Lol well your ballasts are digital right now, just the new ones will be SLIM digital. That's the only difference

Lunar: Can't say for certain, still waiting for them to finish making and packaging our kits. Will let you guys know asap

I managed to fix everything. No offense but the write up wasn't helpful at all for me at least.. It seems I have the latest version of the XX kit which looks nowhere close to what the write up had and secondly.. the bumper removal didn't go exactly as I read.. I think it was either it just wasn't detailed enough or the 08 model I have differs...??

But none the less got the kit in and working, it's great. Now I only wish I got a higher temperature because I was hoping the HID would go further and brighter, rather than just brighter. great kit all around!

Also George, is it possible for me to exchange the bulbs for different ones or anything of that sort?

That's good to hear, what was the problem in the end? As for the exchange, hate to say it but we can't allow exchanges once the kit has been installed since the bulb base gets dirty and there's no way for us to clean it. What seems to be the problem with your lights? You might want to look into re-aiming them because if you're not seeing any increase in distance, it's not aimed correctly.

Hey, sorry for such a hassle. You must hate customers like me. Well I rechecked the wires but couldn't really find anything wrong. I'm guessing it was just a bad connection because once i tightened everything up a couple of times it came back on.

As for the bulbs I figured this was going to be the like this considering policies and such. But can anyone give me an idea on how to re-aim? I'm guessing just rotate the bulbs because they seem pretty fixed. I'm looking to just aim a tad bit higher if possible.

Thanks again George.

Morning everyone,

Was thinking about setting up a Group Buy for you guys, wanted to see how the interest was in terms of this? Pricing would be low if a lot of guys got involved. What you guys say?

Best,
George

Installed the 6000k Bi-xenons.
Easy install, took about a hour following the "how to" directions.
No cutting, splicing, or drilling which is nice. PnP.

Wow! what a difference at night.

Hi guys,

Evotech8: Nice hehe, glad to hear you are enjoying the lights and the install was a breeze for you! We'd be honored if you could post some pics of the lights in your ride Only if you have time of course hehe.

trancedsailor: I will keep that in mind! Judging from how much interest there is, we might get a GB started up with some great pricing brackets. We actually got a huge order coming in with a newly redesigned box with some upgraded internal ballast components so they're gonna be even better in design and quality. I'll keep you guys updated once I start up a GB thread

Hi everyone,

trancedsailor: Haha for sure. We're definitely expecting them to be here before the end of September (otherwise we're gonna have a lot of angry people). Keep checking back then because we'll have a GB thread up for sure.

oneduduboy: Sent you a PM my friend, thank you.

Lunar_GD3: I'll take that as a yes simply because the price is gonna be awesome

Hi everyone,

trancedsailor: Haha HIDs will definitely fix that problem trust me. I love driving at night so I could show off the lights

vtecdreamer: I can't say a specific, but it's going to happen sooner than later.
