My Review of OPT7 HID xenon kit with pics inside
So I purchased this kit on ebay. The seller has a good reputation and is local in San Jose. Shipping took only a day to get. The quality of the kit looks very well and the color range was true to chart. I was looking for 500k easy plug in play bi xenon bulbs that were able to turn the hids on and off and switch the normal and it was exactly what I hoped to get.
For the price of 35 shipped to your door its a insanely good deal. Here is a link to the ebay auction if you are interested. http://www.ebay.com/itm/121078311830...84.m1439.l2649 And pictures of the results. Left is the hid and right is stock. You can tell its a pure white no blue tint which is what i was hoping for in the 500k range. Has oem look.

I'm pretty sure it is illegal not to mention incredibly rude to oncoming traffic. Hid in projector housings or not at all.

Just my little review on this product
Bought these and after 2 months one stopped working so i took em out. Thought it might have been the bulb that blew but when i went in to check it it shocked the hell out of me! :| |

I had a kit very similar to this in my car several years ago.
My advice: don't do it. Even if other people aren't flashing you, you're definitely throwing a lot more light in their face than you normally would be. HID without projectors is a huge waste. Comparing what mine used to look like with HIDs in the regular housings vs the projectors I got from TRS, there's a world of difference. Projectors are the way to go with HID.

I used to have hi/lo HIDs as well...I now run high watt halogens with a relay harness and the light output is stellar.

Installing projectors will make a lot of difference + you're not going to blind anyone. Once you go projectors you can't go back
