You mention plug 'n play but I was under the impression that the HID would require a "kit." A box for the transformer or whatever it is for the bulb and then of course the switch (possible not?) and bulb + wiring itself. Easy install I take it. Just connect the bulbs, run the wires, mount the box, and play?

The box has a plug that goes to the wiring harness for your bulbs, then there's one plug off the other end that goes into the box, and there's another plug off that end of the box that the HID bulb itself plugs into. It's a little hard to describe but when you get the kit, you'll see exactly what I'm talking about. And yes, it's super easy to set up. The most "difficult" part is mounting the bracket for the ballast (which of course isn't difficult at all!)

bump, let's get this list goin' so we can get an order placed, eh?

do we have to get 15 before the order can be placed?

Yeah, unfortunately it's the minimum order I can place. I put a thread up at celicatech for them too, to try to help move things along a bit. If it doesn't pick up in the next week or so, I'm gonna push the date back to Monday, September 15th.

Come on ya'll - these are really nice HIDs - I have them on my car and I can tell you they are durable as hell too. My horror story:
Previously my ballasts weren't mounted - just left rolled up near the lights. Well one day I was driving on Houston's Inner most loop and since it's so old but still gets Hella traffic it has some really rough spots. I Hit one of those bumps in the road that basically looks like a speed bump but at freeway speeds [70mph here] so it's one of those ones that lifts the drink from your cup holders and bangs your head aginst the roof at the same time. So as I'm trying to recover my drink, rub my head and keep the car straight I didn't hear that the DS side ballast had fallen through the big hole next to the battery inside the fender well area. So basically the ballast was hanging by it's wires and bouncing between the ground and the tire doing 70mph down a rough ass freeway for several blocks.
Got home - repaired the wiring and mounted them properly and they fired right back up and have not had any problems since. That's durable IMO. Mount yours up correctly the first time and you'll never have a problem with them durability wise.
Further to this - Griffgirl is a good and trustworthy seller and she needs your business to fund some desperately needed tires. Buy some already!

1st post edited - I'm extending this out to the 15th of September to allow some more time to get this order together and give some of the Celicatech guys a chance to get in on this too. Don't forget, you don't have to just get these for your 6gcs, you CAN get other bulb types for other cars too!

Can you guys still get the IIRC 3K kits for the fog lights? If so I would want a pair. Let me know ASAP

I'll have to ask Culp about that one, I think that might be a special request deal. I'll get back to you as soon as possible though, hopefully by the end of the day today (PST)

no special request, that's 100 % possible. we can pretty much get any type of HID.

Hey guys, I hate to do this but I am going to have to drop of the list for now. School and work are already not coexisting well and I am going to drop my hours at work down. I will keep an eye on the list and hopefully get back on when we are close. I just didn’t want 15 people to sign up and then I would not be able to come up with the cash. Hope this is not going to cause too much trouble GriffGirl. Sorry for any inconvenience I just didn’t want to wait till the last minute.

Thanks for understanding GriffGirl, It means a lot to me.

She is a class act!

So Culp, what is the actual temp for those? And as long as you c=guys can for sure get them add my name to the list.

you already said the temperature, 3000 K the color is yellow, if that's what you meant.

Update; I'm gettin an H1 Bulb, i'm gettin projectors

yep im interested but, does anyone have pictures of the actual product and a picture of em working in a car?

ps. if i get HIDs i need to purchase projectors too right? cause the light will just go everywhere?

This post has been edited by whatthe: Sep 4, 2008 - 9:34 PM

No - you definetly won't need the projectors to use these. I don't have projectors but I have these HIDs and they are great - way more output than stock halogen bulbs.

^ What he said! I also don't have projectors - I will get night time pictures this weekend; with the halogen bulbs in my fog lights, you'll be able to see a VERY clear distinction between the HIDs and the halogens. It's a really great upgrade.
