Reliable HID Company?
Hey everyone,
I came across this company selling HID conversion kits and at great pricing. I am not sure of their reliability, and wondered if anyone on here has had any experience with the company (VVME). On the 60DegreeV6 forum, some guy is selling them for $56, but their website has them for even cheaper. The company has a 14 month warranty on the product as well. So anyway, thought I would bring them up for conversation and see if anyone knows the company or has had any experience with their product yet?
Thanks.

that seems a little too cheap for quality hids. i bought mine off of ebay for about 70 shipped. ive been using them for almost a year and they are perfect. they're bright and i've never had a problem with them flickering or shutting off on me. i can link you to the seller if you'd like.

Well I thought the cheapness was the downfall, but I mean if they are just as good quality as the 70 to 100 dollar ones, and they come with a 14 month warranty, why not. But I also don't know the actual quality of them, so that's kinda the main reason for this thread... I'm thinking about doing a projector project, but that is just in the thought/research phase right now. but yea, the link to the seller would be cool as well... just comparing and shopping around...

Sounds like some people have had a lot of problems with them and some people have no problems. So it's more of a play the odds company.
PS I hate everyone with HIDs cuz California blows lights brighter than factory lights are illegal.

I heard of that place but wasnt sure about them, they are only an hr or 2 from me. But most HID kits dont last more than 14 mos, lol so ur prob straight, 40 bucks for 14 mos, sounds good to me, even if they are crap 40 bucks is nuthin
