Alright i see everyone asking for cheap but good HID kits.
Most of you know i own a shop and i'm the process of setting up a big order
So to help out Oznium members i'm setting up a group buy

If we get 5 people the kits will be $90 shipped
10- $85 shipped
15- $75 shipped
20- $65 shipped

I can get any color.. anything above 10000K will be extra.
Bulbs like H4, H13, 9004, and 9007 i can get single bulb or w. high beam which is a regular halogen bulb on the side. Can get bi-xenon but don't recommend them (also an additional charge)

So who is in??

1. Mrkai

they have the tendency to stop working..either in low or high beam position...ask around most people tend to stay away from bi-xenons.
If you want bi-xenons i'll be more than happy to get you it

Not to be rude but DDM has them for 60 bucks with lifetime warranty. So Im curious what brand you got and what type of warranty your offering? I'd pay the little bit more to buy from someone on here and help them out and know my warranty will be honored.

Very tempting, but brand and warranty mean a lot.

I have been looking at getting some HID's and so far the leading candidate fro me to buy from is the company on ebay that radioflyer has successfully used many times.

What do you mean by warranty? Before i was in this business i bought the HIDs b/c they had "Lifetime warranty" bull...i had them for 2 months and both ballast went. To get replacements i had to pay $25 per ballast. The kits i sell have a 1yr warranty from the manufactor..but if anything happens beyond that i will take of it for you. I'm not here to jerk people around.

Kits are 100% waterproof. I've had the one in my fogs for over an year and they are exposed to all elements(rain, snow, salt, mud, ect..) and they still work like a charm.

As far as brand they don't have a brand. These kits are what other "brands" buy. They simply slap stickers on them. I can get pics of the boxes they come. The box i get them in i pay alittle extra but its a generic box that saids HID and color chart ect..

I think the Warranty question was self explanatory. Each seller is different, thats why I asked what you offered. Free replacement, 15,20,25 dollar replacement cost etc... So whats your manufature warrenty of 1 year include, how much is it gonna cost me if something breaks?

Friend had a ballest go out after about 5 months seller shipped one out no charge, we just had to pay shipping to send the old one back. Each seller is different, this is just an example of one. And Like I said, ill pay the extra to support someone business on this forum since I don't think anyone whos been here for awhile like yourself is out to jerk anyone around and I'd rather my money stay inside his group then go to Joe blow whos selling the same thing.

Kindschi pretty much hit the nail on the head with the warranty comments.

If you get to the 20 qty. purchasing or get close I will buy two sets as the price will be very competitive with what I have looked at.

I understand what you are saying..for the first year you would pay shipping to send yours. and i would send the new part out to you. After the year you would have to pay shipping both ways. I would loose money but i want to build a reputation. So in other words its basically lifetime warranty from myself. These kits are not being resold from another distributor or seller so i can stand behind the products. Hence why i can afford to sell at such a low price if we get 20 people.
As far as money wise... I would require a deposit to confirm the order. Once the group buy ends (which i will have a end date by this week) i will privately get in contact with the buyer and let them know what is the remainder balance. I know its a different system most people use but i feel this is a "safer" method for both buyer and seller.

Again if anyone has any question please feel free to ask

The only other question I have is you say that price is based on "people" but I am thinking you mean kits, is that correct?

I want/need H11 and 880 bulbs, and I am thinking something in the 6000k range.

As far as color temps..the ones that fit in this group buy are from 3000k to 10000k I can also ge exotic colors and higher temps but there will be an additional cost. I'll post exact prices later today

KnateBeatz - 1
DJ Tricky - 2
A-Ray - 2
02 cougar man - 1
clutch - 1
Kindschi - 2
__________
10

that is if everyone sticks to it (like the ones that said they'd want more people in on it before they buy). So looks like we could use a few more, tell your friends! Lol.
