Okay i want to purchase a hid bulb for my 2003 audi a4. i was looking at this http://www.ddmtuning.com/hidkihidbuhi.html kits AApexcone 35W/55W Full Size Ballast HID KitApexcone is a 3/4 size ballast kit. and was wondering if anyone has expireence with this bulbs and how hard is the install. They are fairly cheap and i was thinking of 8000k and depending on that maybe do the fogs. Input.

 

shopxenon.com has good stuff too

 

the other kit is almost half and its 55w

 

you should check how much shipping is first. the install is very easy. audiworld.com probably has a diy for it

 

shipping is free on that site.

 

There's a guy here that sells HIDs are $130 for 12,000k and below HIDs, and $150 for anything above 12,0000k. He's not running an actual business, but I guess all the businesses are jealous of his deals. His brand was a German brand, but he was talking about how most of these HIDs sellin around are just knock-offs that are japanese made and what not. I'm a little confused about that. HIDs are HIDs, aren't they??

 

As with anything, the quality of the components that go into the product determine the quality of the product. I have no idea who has the highest quality country-wise, but the Philips kit I had in my 300Z was fantastic - it seemed much better made than the VVME and related kits for a number of reasons.

To the OP, go for it, but stick with 6000k and below for optimum light output.
