hey guys,
i just wanted ask if theres anything wrong with HID from ebay?

i found one,
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/BI-XENON-H4-HID-LIGHT-BULBS-KIT-FOR-HONDA-CIVIC-EG-EK_W0QQitemZ370214048710QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_Car_ Parts_Accessories?hash=item56327a13c6&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C 301%3A0%7C293%3A8%7C294%3A50

unsure if i should buy it or not :S

wouldnt suggest it

999automotive are having their sale 155 shipped
id trust them over ebay anyday.

i guess so, they all in 8000k though im only looking for 6000k.

only difference between buying from ebay and 999 is that you can easily get a refund/exchange if you buy it within australia. otherwise its the same quality and they're all made in asia anyway.

if your worried about quality, the owner before me had some Ebay HID installed in my car and have been in car for a while (over 2 years) and not given any trouble. But it is true about getting a warranty/return job with ebay, you will probably pay as much to post item back to the ebay seller.

Just my 2c

Bought a HID kit from ebay a few weeks back, noticed the beam of light twitched/flickers a little bit. It isn't noticeable when driving, but when the light is aimed at a wall or another car you can notice it abit. A mate of mine also has the same probelm from the HID he bought off ebay as well. We both bought from the same seller so just his kits might just have defects. I can't remember the sellers name, but on the site it had a video on the bottom explaining what HID's were.

pretty much everyone has HID from china, if you got good jap ones, id expect you pay more than 400 bucks. but the quality is so awsome. even the box they come in is cooler lol~

Have purchased about 10kits from various stores on ebay for various cars. I think i've had to return one ballast and 1 set of globes back (wrong temp). As everyone is saying, Sending stuff back o/s is a pain in the arse however you can save money. $155 isn't huge, the last single order I got off ebay was for $170 as I wanted to see if the quality was any better then the last store I brought from. Ballast's won't be your problem. Decent globes is what you need to find!

dude buy off the traders here, saves you the hassle,

[kleo]

yeah, if ure worried abt getting dodge then dnt bother buying it on ebay.

yea my expirence with ebay ones is that they will last 3 months before a ballast dies (I drive alot of day and night driving, the car is a daily, non hard parked example of them working in 'real world' conditions)

I would not waste another cent on them not even the jap versions, theyre not something that will last longer than ordinary bulbs and end up ethier getting you.

a) defected for your gangster as lights as they dont meet adr
b) having to trouble shoot when a ballast dies
c) having to then take apart half your car to hide them properly and remove them again when ethier a) or b) happens

just my personal 2c
