I have these eBay Motors: 9003 H4 9004 9007 HID BiXenon KIT Bi-Xenon Hi/Lo (item 190196832222 end time Feb-10-08 02:30:00 PST)

in 4300k, they have low and hi beam, I was able to install it easily in a few hours and they look and work great.

I got the VVME kit off of ebay. Works great so far. I think my hi-beams are on instead of my low beams, but cops don't seem to mind so I guess they're legal.

I reccomend bi-xenon for inspection and flashing other motorists that flash at you.

I've heard as long as the ballasts are made in Germany and not in China or Japan you are ok. These are the ones i've been looking at on Ebay... eBay Motors: H4/9003 9004 9007 H13 Hi/Lo Bi-Xenon HID Conversion Kit (item 320209681269 end time Jan-26-08 11:19:21 PST)

these are the ones i'm looking at:

eBay Motors: HID CONVERSION KIT Bi-Xenon 9003 H4 9004 9007 H13 Hi/Lo (item 360018482839 end time Feb-08-08 01:15:07 PST)

they use a shield that moves to switch from low to hi beam. this is suppose to reduce glare. i've seen other hi/low kits that move the bulb up and down, but i've heard those often break and produce the most glare.

anyone have any experience with this style and does it really reduce glare?

from my ebay kit

4300k, looks whiter in person, camera gives it a bit more glare and blueness than it actually has

19 psi · 02-11-2008, 12:43 AM

You aimed yours so much better than mine. I have black housing with eyelids and my shits everywhere

Previous car I bought a "german" technologies kit for about $350 in a group buy. Fancy packaging blah blah blah put it in worked fine.

Just bought a ebay kit for $70 for xentech, not so fancy packaging...but you know what the lights, ballest and all the cabling looked EXACTLY the same, looks that same in the car as well
