Those look legit but you can't be too sure. We know for a fact that Jason's are 100% genuine Philips bulbs and ballasts. Jason's also comes with a full one year warranty on all parts.

These pics look familiar
I ran across this auction this afternoon. Some of the pictures look like the ones on the groupbuycenter.com page--the Accord, the picture of the ballast mounts, the picture of the wiring harnesses, etc. Is this related to discountcycle, or were the pics just lifted?

Addendum: I went to this vendor's web site, http://www.hidconversionkits.com/ ,and saw that the 4100K kit is $435. Is this Jason's site, if not, does Jason sell 4100K kits? I'm afraid the projectors on my ES will concentrate the color too much, and make the 6000K look too purple. All the pics I've seen of the Ultinons are in reflector housings. Anybody have pics of the Ultinons in stock projectors, preferably the 92-96 ES, 92-00 SC, or 93-97 GS?

the way i see it, the pics look legit and all, but you never know what's the final products you receive. i agree it was taking a pretty big risk when i went with jason (i was the first guy). but well it went well and now everyone knows he's for real. so unless there is a huge price break, i would just stick with jason

I concur with the previous statements. Jason is an honest e-seller......NOT one to sell you something as-is. He backs up his products with a 1 yr warranty. I would'nt waste my time and money with anything less. My motto is - If you gonna do it......do it right the first time.

Often times the seller doesn't even know what an Ultinon bulb looks like.
This auction, for example shows a 4100K bulb...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33710
Yet it is being sold as a 6000K Ultinon HID kit.
Same story here...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6755
Both auctions show a xenon bulb with a brown wire insulation cover. My guess is that those bulbs are 4100K Philips versions. 6000K for $400 seems too good to be true. Buyer beware.
