    Not as nice or refined as an expensive, name brand HID set, but it works. for about a bill, i wouldnt mind.

      I have the prolumen kit and I like it :). No problems yet *knock wood* and I've had them in for more than 6 months.

            I have the ones on ebay that are 90 + 40 shipping (and 16 on the 2nd set) and they work great, only had em for a week now though so far. Also 1 of the clips is too tight and brittle for when you plug the bulb side of the harness into the housing, like clockwork 1 of the 2 tabs snaps off, I was 4/4 on this no matter how careful I was, but the other tab still holds it snugly and I don't think it'll be a problem, if it becomes one I'll tape it up.

              I would recommend a name brand HID kit.

              I can get from apexcone from a good friend for 150 plus shipping. Let me know. 50 dollars more and easy to deal with warranty :)

                I got a set from this seller yesterday. They came very quickly, UPS were exactly as pictured/described and seem after a painless P&P install to be fine. They are 9006's for my Landcruiser.

                The two provisos I have are (1) they came from China (not "America" as stated in the auction) and (2) are not as nice as the Hella set I had in the e30 but they cost 127.00 shipped.

                I am sure they will last for at least a year and if they do I'll be happy. I'd also say the seller responded to emailed questions both before & after the sale promptly.

                I'll post tomorrow after I drive with them in the dark.

                  Here is a picture. After two days with them, I am pleased.

                              i have a set in my e39 and there is not check light error.

                              cheap too! comes with brackets which makes mounting them a hell of a lot easier then zip ties or the useless double sided tape.
