    Lol, ok, thought the question was a little weird at first! Same brand, new design, at least, if you're having problems with the 3Fives.

    If they are 35w AMPs (for the Mini H1 kit) we are completely out. If they're any others they'll be shipped immediately.

    Don't get me started about those old ballasts. We're not happy with our supplier on this one. :(

    Tried out the 55w DSP ballasts and it came on first time. Will cont. to try thru out the week before hacking the old ones up. Thanks TRS

    Update: Well one of the DSP ballasts went bad and I think il the other one is on its way out as well. Good thing I didn't cut the old ones just yet..

    Is this GB coming back online in 2014? I'd like to place an order but if it's going to be months away from being active again I think I'll have to look elsewhere.

    And yes, first post. I have a tundra... so shoot me!:p Taco's are too expensive haha

    Good luck.

    You aren't going to find a price anywhere close to the GB price on a quality projector retrofit.
    Even the full price isn't bad.

    Awesome, thanks for the update!

    Not true, there are new kits available from individuals selling them secondhand... probably often purchased through TRS and then never installed. A morimoto mini complete setup just sold the other day on a tundra forum for $200.

    However, I've purchased directly from TRS in the past and have been very happy with the parts, and I'd like to give them more business. :cheers:
