catz 4300k hid kit

-little glare, expensive bulb replacements. Nothing major. I ditched it cause I don't wanna spend $100+ on a bulb when it starts to lose brightness.

this is the kit I had in 8000K. My problem was after a month of having them, one bulb blew out. Had it replaced, then a week later the other side blew out, 5 minutes after that the new one blew out. Took the kit back and had it replaced, but sold it. I dont know what the problem ever was, but 2 beliefs are it was turned on and off too many times or moisture in the headlights. Either way, they are nice and look bad ***, but it seems to much of a hassle for what it is worth.

No problems so far. OEM parts work better than generic kit parts. Been around 2 years with mine and they are okay. Bulbs are turning noticeably more blue, but they all do it over time so I guess it's not a problem. You don't notice it until you're driving next to a car with fresh bulbs and see the difference on the ground. bling-bling right?
