    yeah. It will probably be like $15 to ship em to ya i'd guess?
    Price of whatever HID kit you want, plus the "labor/materials" listed in my price breakdown, then just cost of shipping to you

    Sounds good.

    So, since it seems like there are a fair amount of interested people that want in, why don't we say we get around 5 orders together... When the 5 is filled, i'll PM each person and you can then PayPal me the money and I can get the stuff ordered, converted and sent out to each person in the order they are on the list.
    So, if you want in on it, fill out the following:

    Username, which Hella's you want, which HID kit you want.

    Would you sell a set of three with the hid upgrade 35w? What would my total cost be with shipping. Get paid next week other wise i'd have already signed up

    Thanks wasn't sure if you would break up the set and if you would charge more cause of it. Sounds like a sweet deal

    Well, im sure there'll be someone else along the way that would want 3 again. Only thing is i'd like the HID kit to be one of the common ones, ex: 55W slim 5000K or 6000K temp. something like that to make it easier to sell than some random one.:cool:

    never heard of shimming the bulb. The conversions friends and I have done have seemed pretty good just doing a direct swap, but that makes me curious to try that now...

    Makes total sense to me, I actually was thinking about the position of the HID arc vs the standard coil and was wondering if it was different the first time I saw the HIDs. The HID converted hellas do see to have a little bit more of a flood pattern than with the standard halogens, next time I have a set to mess with I'll try playing around with the position a bit.

    On my lights they are 100% spot beam. Even after the HID swap, they are a condensed bright ass "spot". I have the "500's" and not the "FF" I wonder if that makes a difference?

    The lights look great. I've just gotta work on aiming them...I had them hitting the ground 15-20 feet in front of the truck. Didn't get to adjust them last night, the wife demanded I spend some time with her since I've been working on my truck all day every day. Will get them adjusted and post pics ASAP!
