    FAQ

    Q. Is there a warranty?

    A. Yes. We offer a one year warranty on workmanship. TRS components follow the TRS warranty period. For info on warranty for specific parts, review TRS website or contact me directly. All warranty claims will come through me and I will handle it for you. No hassle warranty.

    The cost of shipping the headlight(s) to to me is the original owner's responsibility. I will be responsible for the cost of returning the warrantied headlight(s) to the original owner within the U.S. Sorry, if you are outside the U.S., you pay shipping both ways. This warranty is NOT transferrable. Any modifications and/or tampering of headlights will void the warranty.

    Q. How hard is it to install the headlights and wire harness once I receive them?

    A. If you have a slight bit of mechanical skills, then the installation will not be difficult. The wire harness is plug 'n play, no splicing of the OEM harness is required. The new, retrofitted headlight bolts up the same way your old one was removed. Wire harness instructions are included with your shipped headlights as well as online.
    http://www.theretrofitsource.com/pdf/trs_tech/Bi-Xenon MotoControl Relay Harness.pdf

    The OEM headlight aiming mechanism remains fully functional. After your retrofitted headlights are installed, some fine tuning will be required utilizing the OEM adjusters. Fine tuning is defined as matching both the left and right cut-off so that they are level with each other. As a rule of thumb, I recommend aligning the height of the cut-off to be horizontal with the upper trunk line of the average sedan.

    Q. Where can I learn more about retrofitting, projectors and HID bulbs?

    A. The Retrofit Source (TRS) has a tremendous amount of online material to enhance your retrofitting knowledge.
    http://www.theretrofitsource.com/trs_tech.php

    Q. What's the difference between the bulb colors?

    A. Kelvin Ratings: 3000K - Has a golden yellow output perfect for use in fog lights. The yellow light penetrates through snow, rain, and fog more effectively than white or blue light. 4500K - Has a slightly off-white output similar to that of sunlight. Most cars that come equipped with HID headlights from the factory use 4500K bulbs. If you want the most usable light, 4500K is the Kelvin rating for you. 5500K - A pure white output, no tinge of yellow, and no tinge of blue. 6500K - A white light with a little tinge of blue. As you move into the higher kelvin ratings, your light output will appear more bluish-purple in hue, but the bulbs won't be physically as bright. As HID bulbs age, they go through what is known as "color-shift". When the bulbs are brand new, the output is whitish-yellow and as physically bright as it will ever be. As the bulbs age with use, their output turns more pure white/bluish and also starts to dim a bit. That's why cars with factory 4300K bulbs that are 5+ years old look like they're running 5000K or higher bulbs.

    You quoted me $750 for mini H1´s, mini Gatling Guns, blacked out, and color changing Halos. Would it be cheaper in this group buy?

    The convincing is underway. So if I chose to upgrade to OEM housings, how much would that raise the price?

    Okay sweet. So it's safe to stick to aftermarkets, or should I just go ahead and move up to OEM?

    So if I kept everything the same and just switched the color changing halos to white only, how would that affect the price? Thank you for answering all of my questions.
