FS: True HID H4 Bulbs...
I have a complete kit, that comes with everything needed to convert you over to true HID. This kit includes two bulbs also, so you will have an extra one. Also has warranty on it still. Contact me with any questions, askin $125 shipped. Here are some pics I snapped really fast, can get more!
ALSO, these are very very bright! And is a huge upgrade over stock!!

How exactly, if you know, can this kit be installed on the VTR, and does it have hi and low beam?
Hacknslash, any comments on this kit???
I'm interested but have serious questions.

I think the color temp on that one is too high.

As for installing, it should be as simple as replaceing your stock bulb and plugging in the ballast instead of at the back of the bulb, hiding the ballast somewhere is more of a challenge...
The drawback however is that you will only have lowbeam (looking at the bulb it's a single bulb, no solenoid, only two wires...) this is enough for most cases though...
The other thing is that it's probably going to give of a nasty glare as the bulb and reflector isn't a perfect match... Could be good or bad depending on your preference, nobody will miss seeing you, but might be annoyed by the glare...
And me personaly, I would prefer the 6000K bulbs to the 8000K... but that's just personal preference and a bulb can easily be swapped...

I forgot to mention that, thanks, its low beam only. It is a simple plug and play. And with the low beam in the hawk its super bright! It a rediculous improvement over the stock bulb. The reason I am selling is because I just got the low/high beam ones. And personally Its not a ton better, better I didnt want to pull the lights apart on the hawk. I have a video posted on here when I first got these, I will dig it up. I think the 8k is a perfect color and lights up 3' past each side of the road and just an insane distance down the road. If you need anymoer vids once I find the other one let me know!

No problem...
I try to be fair, and give balanced information...
The lowbeam on a HID bulb is a great improvement on stock bulb... Altough to be fair... it's not even close to the sharp and focused light of a HID bulb with a true projector... That truly is like a bit of portable daylight... So don't expect Anto's or Haknslash's results...
At the price, these are a great improvement over stock, for a projector you will end up at around twice or more... With a lot of work custom fitting it into the light housing... This is a 5 minute swap...

Not hating, but why wouldn't I pay about $100 for a 50 watt bi-xenon?

A moderator should clean out this thread. It is a For Sale thread and not a Tech Discussion thread. We're disrespecting the seller here, and he is being very patient about it.

Well, I agree, it started out as a simple answear to a question, but now It has gone beyond that... I will "self censor" so it doesn't need mods... I'll leave the first post so not to cause confusion...
Altough to state clearly to skip confusion, there was no bashing, it was all information, and nothing negative towards the selling item...

I dont know on this particaular bulb. But I know xenon bulbs are not HID. Might have to do some research, but I am not so sure on this. Any true HID's I have seen are no where near this price and I dont see a dual bulb on the pics of this to make it a true hi/lo HID. And its from China, my guess is its not true HID. But maybe someone here tell me wrong. Plus I will warranty my bulbs and my kits will come with two of everything, so you will have an extra if you have to send one in for warranty
and here is something about xenon in HID's: http://members.misty.com/don/d2.html
