I was reading a thread on HIDplanet.com that really got me thinking...Tell me if this makes sense to you:
Warranties don't mean squat with these kits. At least for US distributed kits. The government is cracking down on US distributors big time. To date (11/2004), NHTSA has investigated 24 HID conversion kit suppliers; all investigations have resulted in recalls or termination of sales.

How do you get a warranty/replacement parts from a company that is no longer in business or doesn't carry the product anymore because the government busted them??
If you must buy a kit, I would suggest purchasing one from a distributor outside of the US.
Here is a link to the thread:

This makes complete sense... If these companies close down I really dont have any warranty what so ever unless I buy from a company that is based outside of the US??
Thanks for your time... Just want to make sure I am making the right choice especially when spending several hundered dollars.
