  1- How do I know which bulb fits my car?
The bulb type should be indicated in the owner's manual of your car. You can also check this site to get the info.


2- Why don't you have kits that have a high temperature color like 8000K?
Light coverage drastically decrease after ~6000K. At 8000K you will get a special look but will practically won't see anything while driving. We won't sell products that can be dangerous to you. If you still want higher K rated bulbs we can get them but by special order only.

3-What is your lifetime warranty?
It's simple. If you buy a product covered by our lifetime warranty, any defective part of it will be replaced for as long as you own the kit. That's how sure we are of the quality of our products.

4- Do I need a harness to power my HID kit?
Actually, there is little, if any, chance of any of the automotive parts in the headlight circuit being damaged by in-rush current. In any decent non-oem ballast design, the current is limited inside the ballast to 7.5 amps. 50W kits are an exception.

ALL ballast manufacturers recommending harnesses do so in order to accomplish one thing. Protect their ballasts from internal damage caused due to voltage sag and increased current demand to compensate. Whereas the car relays will easily handle 30 amps continuous and 40 amps surge, the ballasts are extremely heat sensitive and will fail rapidly with high internal current loads on startup.

Likewise, the wiring on most cars will handle over 12 amps continuous load and should handle at least 20 amps for 3-5 seconds per the specifications for that wire

So unless specified by the manufacturer of the ballasts, the harness should be unneccessary in 35W HID kits.

We can supply harnesses as required though in 35W kits if they aren't included and you want one.

5- What is the difference between D2S and D2R bulbs?
D2R and D2S bulbs are for factory HID installed bulbs. D2R bulbs were originally designed for Mercedes-Benz. Consequently, D2R bulbs and D2S bulbs (used initially by BMW) feature subtle differences at the base of the bulb for fitment purposes. The differences primarily consist of a cut-out and notch for fastening purposes being located differently. In addition to the base varying slightly, D2R bulbs are easily distinguished by ceramic paint along the sides of the capsule.

So please check your owner manual if you want to replace factory HID bulbs o see if you need D2S or D2R bulbs. You can also check the link in question #1.


6- What is the color of the light and lumens output in 35 Watts HID vs. 50W HID kits?

Color Description 35 watt Lumens 50 watt Lumens
3000k "Ion" yellow 3200 4000
4500k Pure white 3400 4200
5000k White with a tiny hint of blue 3300 4100
6000k White with a violet hue 3200 4000
8000k Sky blue 3100 3900
