Howdy From Texas Again!

One more thought about these wannabe lights. Look closely at the eBay
listing. Nowhere on the packaging are these packages labeled "HID." The scam
artist who put up this auction is trying to lead you to believe that you are
getting HID lighting. YOU ARE NOT! Their A/B comparison of the "Stock" vs
"HID Xenon" would suggest that you will be getting the improvement that they
illustrate. However, scroll to the very bottom of the page and you will find
in the text:

"True HID kit cost=$1,895.00
Retail Cost on these EuroDezigns Bulbs=$59.99"

If you buy these 9004 bulbs you are not getting true HID lighting.

Let the buyer beware! It is scum like this seller that ruins the fun of eBay
for everyone.

Cheers For The Holidays!
Bruce
