hi. i dont normally review. but really think i need to throw this out. i bought a kit agenst everyones gut on here from retro-solutions.com. reason is i first saw them on ebay and of course thought ebay china crap. well THATS NOT THE CASE. they have their own online store, have been in business for years and have not had ONE ballest failure. the kit is super high quality and customer service is A+++++++++. i have been asking questions over the course for a week and they have all been answered quickly. EVEN ON SUNDAY. i first ordered them for the mustang, just to try them out. they worked great except the high/low was backwards (ie low beam was high beam) e-mailed them and they sent me a new relay all wired up for the mustang so it worked. 10 bucks for that. PLUS A LIFE TIME WARRENTY. i liked them so much i ordered a kit for the yukon and LOVE THIS ONE TOO. gunna get one for the highs soon. all kits i ordered are 55 watt. 5000k. just throwing this out.

you cant go wrong with them. here is their site.

i will get pics of the kon later but here is the rustang. **flash is off for all pics** i need to get better ones on a less busy complety dark road as they turn night in to day on some of the back country dark roads when im down in NC.

they are D2R bulbs with HID hosings (aftermarket). they are BI-xenon. cost more and took some work, but worth it for even light with out hotspots.
LOWS!!

guys name is TODD. they origionally only did projector mods on to your stock headlights, but now make kits. i had my local audio shop try and retro some Gmc acadia projectors in to the Kon but they messed it all up so i told them to stop and i will have it done somware else, only out 100. so i think im gunna spring the 750 for them to retro some TSX ones. :D

I must agree , at 1st i was hesitant about buying a "cheap" chinese Ebay HID kit, but i figured "wtf" i've spent more money on bs so why not give it a try , I must say Im 110% satisfied, i paid $100 for a tiny slim ballast setup 4300k for the headlights. Perfectly matched Stock OEM Hid's " PURE White " This $100kit has given far less problems than my HeLLa $500kits check Ebay seller super_digi (shipping took 2 weeks) or copy paste http://stores.ebay.com/justplaza-com-usa Id def recommend the ultra slim ballast just my .02

retro solutions is not a cheap ebay kit though.

their a full online store with a single small owner and give you a+ service. they also modify your stock housings to be legel and have true HID prefomance. while you may have had a good kit off of ebay. i never trust them. posting this was to avoid people going to ebay for cheap kits. not being a dick. just though i would let everyknow. :D
