Price for the 9004??

93SOHC, Taras in Victoria would be able to clarify the lense/light dispersal pattern characteristics of our lights. I'd say he's pretty much of an expert in this area. PM him.

They do make a kit for 9004's it just wasn't listed on their site so I wasn't sure if they did or not.

I would imagine you could use the stock lens, I don't see how it would affect the light that much. I know you guys have foggy lens but there was some crap I bought from crappy tire that cleaned them up nicely.

And the price for the kit would be the same at 380 cad I would imagine. I don't see why it would be any different

Ok, I've been following this thread, but maybe not clesly enough lol. I'm assuming that the HIDs are the entire light assembly?? or is it just the bulbs? I'm so confused...

in a way it's just a bulb, HIDs are specail thought they use xeoen gas which burns brighter than halogen gas, I think that is basically how it works. But these bulbs need an inverter (ballest) to make them work properly

ok, So i'd have to modify the housing then? Why aren't there just projector assemblies for the MX?? that would be so much easier..
I guess my real question is why are a couple of bulbs costing almost 400?

First off there is no modfying of the housing required, and yes it seems like alot of money but when you see the difference you know why you payed that much money

What am I looking at? A no name kit, with no name ballests and bulbs (my guys kit come with Hella Ballasts and the Bulbs are made by Toshiba) that costs 385 cad before duty and crap hits you once you try to ship it across the border? A non-local seller? By all means go ahead and order from this other dude, but I am pretty sure you would have been happier with my seller.

Lol wow dude, all I said was check this out... I'm not about to spend 400 bucks on a couple of bulbs, I don't care what they come with. At least, not without seeing their performance in an MX-3.
