I think you went a bit too cheap on those. I would not be surprised if they failed on you within a month. If they work though, good find Let us know!

Hey, maybe you'll get lucky!!

However, if you're an unlucky soul, I just may be doing a group buy for HID kits varying from 4300K to 10000K colors...keep your eyes open just in case your kit does not work out bro :happy0180:

Holy jeebus do not ever ever ever get that. I bought one exactly like that for my mazda6 fog kit and it failed within 2months!!!! It was purchased at the same price also. Worst 30bucks i ever spent. The ballast is made of plastic and crap out very fast. Try to search for ac kid kit h11 and get the metal one. Thats the one i bought to replace and its still working great. Funnny enough my mazda6 fog is h11 so ill get the same kit for the frs once it arrives.
