one more quick question

is it normal when u first turn on the lights that they flicker a little bit? im sure it is, just making sure. i think its cause the xenons need to heat up a little bit, correct? because after 3-4 seconds they are on perfectly, than if i turn them off and turn them right back on their is no flickering.
i dont think thats normal.... but im not a electrician so dont take my word for it.

Thanks Cliff. I'll place my order after my finals are finished (last week!!! ). Hmm, I hope you have this later on if I'm successful on my low-beam retrofit idea haha

The part in bold is funny. For those who don't know lights, it seems like you'll be sending everyone 194 individual bulbs, not the type of bulb . I know what you mean though haha

Cliff!! New to the HID setup world!! Maybe you can help me, I have a 2000 GS300 (halogen lighting). Is it better to retrofit my halogen casing with projectors and then do and HID kit, or will I get almost the same results using a HID conversion kit in my stock halogen casing (cheaper)?

Also I would like to have my low beams white, so should I use 5000k, and my fogs yellow, 3000k? And for the harness, do I need to order that separately or does the each kit come with one?

Thanks for your help!!

RI-Lex - yes, extensions can be included to ensure proper length.

iskon - nobody has ordered it but i'll post up some pictures of that for you. sorry for the delay in good quality photos, the battery charger for the 8mp camera went in the wash with my cargo shorts a while back. a new charger finally came in the mail.

-future- I think we spoke on the phone today? if that wasn't you, the ideal setup would be to get a set of ls430 projectors retrofitted into your factory housings. will the light output from a kit in the OEM headlights be the same results? no way. but - do you get decent light output with the kits in the OEM housings for a fraction of the retrofit cost? yep.

eyezack - thanks for the heads up - concentrate on school man. the offer will still be around next week, and the following week, and the week after that... etc. and yes, you will get 194 SIZE led bulbs, not one hundred and ninety four led bulbs.

lilflip - the first few times the light may tend to waver but that's only because they're new.

Thanks a lot man. Yeah I've been asking a few times and I'm sorry about that but I just would like to see how the color looks before I buy your kit (I'm kinda picky). Thanks again though

408is350 - your fog kit shipped but your low beams are undergoing testing to ensure proper color temp. they'll ship out tomorrow. sorry for the delay.

iskcon - did some photos and tested out temperatures with the temp gun. holy cow you guys won't believe how hot these bulbs get... will post tomorrow.



RI-Lex - don't worry buddy, yours was packed with many extensions to ensure everything reaches.

future- sounds good man. the light output will be phenomenal.
