    Are these real or fake?

    EDIT: FAKE. RESOLVED>

    Ok so i have tried 8 to 9 different brands of HID systems in the last 6-7 years. I have seen fake Philips HID kits being sold on ebay before. I have also witnessed Chinese dealers getting booted from ebay for selling counterfeit philips kits.
    And at last, i actually own a kit that says Philips on it but it is a fake. It works normal just like other kits but its still fake.
    Lately i have been searching for a legit HID system and I came across these two different kits which claim to be phillips (german made). But why are they in China if every single component says Germany on it? I am positive that these are knockoffs but i could be wrong. Why isn't Phillips doing anything about this shit?

    There are brands that absolutely stand out and need not any explanation such as Morimoto. But does anybody have any insight on these two items listed below?

    I would say anything from China will be fake.

          I can vouch for the morimotos. It's three times the price of an eBay kit but worth it. Even my fake smileys look epic.

          If you are ever in my town I can show you.
