I'm not sure what these are. The company makes them inhouse I guess so they are not Sylvania or Hella. My buddy has em and they work great so I am gonna try out a set. If they are crap and blow out prematurely I'm gonna go Kung Fu on someones ***! LOL

They are local to the Bay Area so it's not like I can't go to the company and complain. They also offer a limited 1yr warranty.

Actually, that's where a bunch of people on here have referred me to regarding where to buy the HID's for my truck and the H4 conversion for my Bird.

Hmm, because they have seperate ignitors and ballasts. That's not where I am getting them from but they look similar.

I'm just gonna try a set anyway. LOL

"The XenonDepot HID Conversion kit will use genuine Philips bulbs and ballasts."
That's what you want

Ive had the xenarcs for about a year and a half. Never had a problem. I always lock the safety brake so that when I turn on the truck the lights are out until I release the break to let the lights come on otherwise a light may not fire up with the truck
