Default Good Quality HIDs(6000K) for is250 in CA

So I live in (818) and I was wondering if anyone knows where to get a good quality set of HIDs for my 2009 is250. I have 6000k right now, got them from Distinctive on Ventura but I think they got that **** from china town because after 1 year or working perfectly(on almost all the time) they burned out. I got them replaced and less than 2 months later BOTH had burned out again.

So I need a new shop that buys a higher quality bulb. Or if someone can suggest a bulb I can just get them installed anywhere.

I paid 225 installed. A buddy of mine said he got his from iJDM toys for $100 just the bulbs. So anything in the range of 100-175 for the bulbs. I know a show that installs them for $50, which is a good deal to me.

Any suggestions or tips would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Garax or MTEC... Install yourself. If I can do it anyone can. I have Garax and no problems at all.

818 nice, where you located? My parents live in Chatsworth. I have Garax 6000k lows and HIDXtra 8000k fogs. The 8000k fogs match better with the 6000k lows due to the housing.

get a set of Garax 6000k. iJDM toy is located in Rosemead. I know cause I pass by it all the time and I am sure you can just pick up a set. And if something goes wrong, u can just return it to them since u are local.

If you want to spend a little more money u can get a set of the philips 6000k bulbs. I head it has a better output compared to garax, but have not seen this in person
