HID in Stock Bucket

[junior varsity]

as i recall, my harness was for two also, but only one bulb and one ballast, so you just omitted the other stuff (I just chopped it out).

[He Man]

well if thats the case, ill just get another ballast then and stick it into my dual headlight setup.

I have to check the other package, acause i also bought 2 H3 bulbs and ballast +harness for my friends 749.


edit: they are missing the harness for the 749 unless the power connects straight to ballast....

oh and they are also missing a ballast..... -1 for DDM...

[junior varsity]

Weird. My setup is a "box", i'll call this the wiring "junction" - the wiring harness connects here, and the cables to the battery, and the stock headlight wiring plugs into the wiring harness.

This plugs into the ballast/igniter, which plugs into the bulb, as well the extra wire or so from the wiring harness, which seems to also plug into the bulb.

LOL...He Man's (bad) luck strikes again...and again...and again...   

[junior varsity]

Yeah... I don't get that. It went straight into my 99's metal headlight bucket no big deal. And into my Desmoworld headlight bucket (also metal) no big deal. Weird.

Also, weird you are having rotten vendor luck with the packaging

[He Man]

bah.

Did your car harness have 1 side longer then the other?

This one is just like my ebay one that i paid $100 for. The only reason i bought a kit was beacuse a few members here have the DDM one and talk good of it. Im hoping thats true.

[junior varsity]

Mine was the moto one, and I believe it was two equal length runs of wires, and I chopped one out rather than ziptie-ing it up.

[He Man]

bah im going to see if they can send me a new harness, one isde is baout 18" max. the other one is over 4 feet.

i called in, and their mailbox if full. waited for 10 mins no one picked up so i used their online help thing. they gave me a ticket number and im suppose to get my answer via a msg board with a login. They email me my log in and all of a sudden teh whole msg board is blank. I clear my cookies and its back up again. somethings messed up with the login.

Hopefully i wont have to click on the dispute charge on my creditcard.

Price = Great.
Quality = Good enough from what I can tell so far...
Customer Service =    Good Luck!!!

From my experience, they'll straighten things out with you...If you can ever get a hold of them. 

[He Man]

well then, looks like that dispute button on my AMEX Is going to come in handy.  im giving them 3 days max to answer. free HID kit for me then. just need those damn ballast.

[He Man]

spent 20mins installing it to see how it looks. ehh. Notice that i have 2 bulbs, but only 1 ballast. lol 1 eyed monster

[DucLeone]

do you only have 1 beam then?

HI and LO use the same bulb,you can hear the magnet clonking when you hit the HI,
basicly the bulb moves back and fwd.

i bought this kit in 35w h4 hi/low a little while back and haven't gotten around to starting the install... i think i'll give it a go this weekend though since i'm sans ECU anyway and make sure at least that the bulb fits in the stock headlight bucket for the 2005 S4R

[He Man]

what did you get in the box?

how is the wire? i bought the same kit and they make the beast with two backsed up my order with no ballast.

yeah i went to install mine, and after opening up the headlight etc., and test fitting the bulb, i realize they didn't include the freaking wire to attach to the battery.  awesome.  so i called them up to ask if they could send me just that wire that was missing, and they said no, and that i had to order the freaking $35 bulb replacement kit, just so that i could get the wire, because of course they can't just sell me the damn wire separately.  so, $45 in total with shipping...  real stellar.

btw their policy requires that you notify them 48-72 hours from receiving your package of any defects or missing parts.  it's also worth noting that they included no slip in the box for me to even check that everything was there.
