Hmmmm this company is ISO9001-2000 approved, so their quality control should be pretty high & not some backyard slap together.

Just one question G1, does the warranty cover Australia?? & where do we take it to if theres a problem?

**The only downside is that we have to send it back to China if there are problems. At least they do have warranty though. Hey what can you expect for that price?

**Correction - The Sydndey supplier will handle warranties himself.

What colour are they?

You might want to check if the warranty is void on a DIY job as HIDs are normally supposed to be installed by someone qualified to do it.

from talking to the guy he expects ppl to be able to install it themselves using the instructions and wiring diagram. so it shouldnt be an issue. but i will double check.

Apparently its 4600k-5000k, but no one can confirm (eg VicRoad)

those people who said yes, please contact me on PM or email.

I am in no rush but I just need to filter out who is serious and who is not, so please leave me a private note. I will ask for a $50 deposit before I place the order. I should arrive within 2 weeks max.

look if you guys are so sceptical, then give me $10 each between 5 of you so that i can get mine for the same $450 (full price being $500) price and i will be happy to give you guys a full report. i just need 4 firm buyers to get the discounted price.. so what will it take!? :lol:
