How long did the install take? If anything goes wrong (i.e. HIDs suddenly stop working, etc), will they take responsibility for it?

and btw johung, that's exactly how I want my lights to look.
The install was a little over an hour. Just because he had to look for a good spot for the ballast/igniter. If something goes wrong, he'll be nice enough to fix it for you. He does a very clean and thurough job.

I'm on the way back from Alpha Tint right now, and the service was as advertised, if not better. They close @ 6 and I pulled up at 5:30 and offered them a couple extra bucks if they would stay a little late and install my HID's. They obliged, and MAN do these things rock... The install took exactly one hour, and is VERY professional and clean. I'll post pics when I get home.

As promised, here are the pics... They are a fantastic "diamond" white, as has been mentioned earlier. Really bright, and very impressive. Well worth the money - thanks to Xenon Depot for the group buy, johung for the referral, and Alpha Tint for a great installation!

Hey Johung,

my parking light. If my MTEC's bulb goes out later on (hopefully in a long long time)
I will buy xenondepot bulbs. I love the color!
