    IMG_0937.jpg IMG_0946.jpg Bought it 2 years ago as an ornament for my shelf apparently, brand new never used straight from the box original packaging.

    Attached in photos is the order summary with the specifics on what I ordered.

    385 with group buy, its worth 465.

    Selling for 300 plus shipping.

    Just bought a pair of headlights to bhlm because cost of even a diy retrofit is costly.
    Then this pops up!! Rrrr..seems like a great price.. i wonder how much this kit and also hid's in general have evolved since this purchase two years ago?

    They have an updated stage 3 version of this kit, I'm not expert but it looks identical, and I just Built it on their site the exact same as what I have here and it came out to be 435$.

    300 is a steal even if it's (unnoticeably beside some different colors) one stage down. You can always return your headlights !

    I never got around to the project and thinking about it just gave me more anxiety

    So the only difference I saw was they have a 4.0 projector vs mine which is a 3.0. Not sure of the difference tho, but they still sell the 3.0's in their drop down option

    4.0 has a curved shield for a straighter and wider beam being the primary difference. The shield solenoid design is also changed to the lever design rather than the drop down, and plug for it was moved for better installation. Supposedly output is superior to the FX-R. That's what I can remember off the top of my head.

Morimoto 2.5" Square HID projectors with Osram Nightbreakers and Square Morimoto Halos.
    And if you buy this kit your truck will look sick! Just like mine (although I have the square lens/halos instead of round, and my bulbs are 4200k). I will say the light output on the Mini D2S 3.0 is amazing.
