| great price... but there isnt any info about them? like the manufacturer, warranty, nothing... and he mentions bulb size, but doesnt say anything about the plug type on the bulb... if you get the 90* angled plugged on the bulb.. it isnt going to fit into the housing, you need the straight plug... usually 9006XS they call it... | |

| That is a good deal but make sure you find out what brand they are and also if they come with any anti flickering harnesses otherwise you will have to buy those separately. You need them to keep your lights from flickering while they are on. | |

| oh, and if you decide to buy them...... from what i found when i was looking for HIDs myself, i would suggest getting a color temp no more than 10000K (mine are 8000K) because of something that has to do with light wash... and i understood light wash to be something kinda like the difference between regular and HD tv | |

You havent had any problems with only one bulb turning on? i have had 0 problems with them. no one bulb, no flicker, nothing. when you install them you have to make sure you flip the one connection where the harness from the car would plug into the stock headlight bulb. just flip it when you put it into the ballast of the HID. LX cars are reverse polarity and if you don't flip that plug you will have the problems you mentioned and also you burn out ballasts. | |
