I have them in my lows and fogs on my tahoe, no issues for the past 9 months. Highly recommended, lifetime warranty and great price. Put a set on buddy maxima, no issues. Just put another set on my buddys gti, no issues there. Sometimes they have a wait, like around christmas time, but we ordered my friends a week ago and he got em in 3-4 days.

Did you need the wiring harness that wires directly to the battery? Did you go with the 35W or the 50W? And what color did you guys go with? I think Im going with 6K 35W simply because I cant find anyone who has ran a 50W in my car and had good results. With my old Grand Prix I wanted to go with 50W HID's, but the housings on the fogs and headlamps were to close to the bulbs and they would melt the headlights. Frankly not something I want to deal with.

No I did not use a relay harness, you really only need to do that with 55w ones. 35w ones are fine to run just plug and play. I just plugged my oval headlight harness plug in to the ballast, then out of the ballast it hooks into the new bulb and thats it. I personally got 12000K for mine, they are bright light blue. 6k is good color we got that for my buddys gti its nice bright white.

They're a real popular company over on Maxima.org, nicoclub.com, and nissanclub.com. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them.

I wanted to go a little bluer, but I didnt want to lose light output. I think if I go to blue it will look funny on the car. With 6K its a hint of blue, but still within the 4500-6K range where light output is the greatest.

Thats what Im worried about.

I originally heard of them in the old car club I was in and everyone there seemed to have great results.

One of the things Im worried about is customer service and warranty claims.

My friend bought an HID kit from them, with no problems.

Excellent. I think Ill be ordering soon then.

They are cheaper than AAC and XenonWorks even with a discount on both of them. And from the sounds of it they are great quality.
