A couple of Question:
What's the originating country of both bulb and ballast?
Since you guys may be just the reseller, who's the actual manufacturer?
Also what's the difference between you and Xtreme HID's in San Jose and their product with their pricing?

CamryDS,

The kit and parts as well as our custom box are all assembled in China. I think this is the case with 99% of HIDs. According to our manufacturer though, internals for the ballasts originate from Japan and Germany. There are certifications for this.

I can't name the actual manufacturer for purposes regarding our competitors, but yes we are a reseller. However, the biggest difference with us is that we work direct with our manufacturer and are not just a middle man reselling a generic kit imported to the US. We pride ourselves on that. We met with the manufacturers in person both at SEMA and at their facility to coordinate a kit specifically tailored to our standards. Box dimensions, ballast internals, everything. Manufacturers don't just offer one ballast, but many models, each with different cost levels and defective rates that go with it. We make sure we stock only the highest standards available. If you really want to know the name of the manufacturer, I can PM it to you.

I honestly have never dealt with Xtreme HID nor do I know anybody there and I wouldn't doubt they sell good kits also. However I did do a quick google though and found their yelp page. I could not find an actual website for them, only other stores under the same name. To be honest, judging from the photos on their yelp page, their kits look like the typical kits you can get from the majority of HID stores out there. Kits like these are brought in by an importer and are advertised to businesses like us almost everyday. http://s3-media3.ak.yelpcdn.com/bpho...QliO_Wdw/l.jpg

This doesn't mean their kits are bad, but as a business, I can only state how much different our kits are from the competition. For one, our ballast are AC digital, which is a lot more reliable as opposed to DC kits shown above.

I hope this helps. I am in no way intentionally bashing Xtreme HIDs, just wanted to answer your last question as professional as possible. I can almost assure you, once you see our kits in person you will really be able to tell how much better our kits are than the competition.
