btw, welcome to the site!!

 

Where I got my stuff from without any problems.
www.suvlights.com

 

thanks! I've been lurking around for a while but never really registered until I just picked up my TL-S...

what kind of components do the kits from suvlights use? Philips?

 

You should also check out http://www.hids4less.com and http://www.hitechimportlighting.com They have some really good products.

 

Anyone tried the kits from http://www.misterjung.com/ ?

 

alot of people at Bimmerforums and DTMPower I think have bought his kits and they aren't the greatest quality, the bulbs start to turn colors after a while and not sure which components he uses...

 

$480 Shipped. Let me know.

KaOTiKM3, he uses Phillips and maybe a few other names, you can e-mail him and ask him all the questions if the info on the site is not there. I heard from some people here that other sites have shipping problems.

Also, he always has the latest stuff that's out in the market.

PS He also has a forum where you can ask questions.

 

I just learned that the 6000 put out 10-15% less light than stock HID's. They are whiter but don't illuminate as well. Makes no sense to lessen your visibilty for more $$$$$.

 

true, I knew this information all along, but as far as I'm concerned I like the look of the 6000k better and am willing to sacrifice a bit of light output. To the untrained eye, however, the 6000k's look brighter when in reality they aren't.

 

Yes, it produces less lumens. But it looks so nice. I personally think it's brighter than the factory 4300K bulbs. And definately much whiter and purple.

 

Great minds disagree, I guess. I think the safety aspect is more important than looks. 15% more visibility is significant IMO.
