^^^they are illegal...trust me. Just because you didn't get a ticket doesn't mean they're legal. I stop 20ish people a day only about half get tickets. And the HID's became popular aftermarket lights a few years ago. It take a little while for laws and officers knowledge of the law to catch up.

Ohh, Soo are you saying it is not worth getting the HID lights? And is the 8k fine to get?

Nope....I didn't say that......Check my pics and posts. I have 6000k projectors on three on my cars. I believe they are much brighter and safer than halogens .....IF.... they are installed and aimed correctly. As I stated about all HID's are illegal but as long as you stay in the white spectrum it is much less likely you will be stopped.......buy 8000k at your own risk. I recommend 6000k, plenty blue.

Thumbs up Re: HID Kit on Ebay

DDM tuning customer here. Ordered 2 sets (6000K Fogs/Heads(Hi/Lo)) Got the fogs in a few days but he heads were back ordered and got them a week and half later. may have taken longer but they let me know that they were back ordered and sent shipping confirmation as soon as they were ready to ship. Overall I was very happy with them. You cant beat the price! IMO the 6000k's make the lamp look like a slight blue color but put out a bright white light. Any higher than that the light that is put out starts to turn blue and when you see blue on the road it looks cool but its truly not that bright and gets annoying. I had 10,000K for about a week that a buddy let me try and could not wait to get rid of them.

And that's why i will buy from them.

Not their fault if they are victims of their popularity, offering what seems to be a good product (haven't seen anything negative said about the product itself), at a lower price than hong kong ebay sellers.

Looks like they come with mounting brackets which is cool. What was the final OTD price?

Whats up with the pricing? $7 HID's with $30 shipping. I buy from ebay all the time and when people list things in this way I try to stay away from them. They just look kinda sketchy if ya know what i mean.

Yeah i know what you mean about that.
But that is how they do on this lights. They basically sell you the lights for the shipping price and the 6 buxs is the shipping price.. Just a easier way for them to get people and make money.
And the total is 36.90

Not a bad price about the same as DDM with shipping. You go with the 6 or 8000k's?

I had 8k's for about 8 months and I never got stopped for them. I angled my lights properly and never had a problem out of them.
