Reputable HID kit seller?

For any and all who may be interested, does anybody with some actual experiance thats purchased a drop in kit want to fess up and share with the rest of us who they use,how much they paid,and where they got them from?

I think this thread could be beneficial to myself and many others since it seems to be a topic of conversation that comes up quite often.

I know there's several of you guys out there with kits, so please feel free to pose and share with us ........

1-what kind of kit

2-price

3-where purchased from

4-overal experiance from purchase to install and possible tech support.

Hey, as long as they're reputable and haev quality parts and not screwing people over and taking forever to get stuff-I'll push my share of money their way.

So whoever can contact whoever to get stuff rolling,then go for it.

I was actually planning to order the 4300k HID setup from xenondepot.com later next week. If this GB gets off the groundI will gladly pitch in my share. Count me in.

Well, how about this-anybody who's interested and planning on buying a kit within the next 3 weeks or so just hold off till we can sort stuf out and see what we can get going. This way should potentially save you money, how much money will be the question of the day.

I just wanted to throw out that I've had great success with HID kits from:

http://www.xenonfactory.com/products/

These guys are great and the products are top notch. I've had one installed in my 2001 4Runner for 3 years and my 2003 GTI for 2 years. I'm about to buy one for the 2006 Civic EX. I installed the Polarion products and they are incredible. Alex is the main contact at xenonfactory and he is responsive and great to work with. Give them a look if you want to have another choice.

Their stuff doesn't look bad at all. Little pricey for anybody wanting anything other than their pure white 4300k bulb which is priced at $400. Everything else is $500. The warranty sounds decent as well-3 years.

They are pricy but the quality of the HID kit was outstanding and they really take care of you and have been around for awhile so they are not a fly by the night outfit. Just another choice to look at.

Well, I think when it comes down to it people will probably end up going with the best bang for the buck. They'll be able to pick between quality and price.

I saw they had some other component drop in HID kits that didn't include Phillips parts that were $300 and then another $50 for the optional relay harness. Little cheapers atleast.
