Xtec bulb died

My xtec xenon bulb died today. Im pretty sure they have a 5 year warranty on them. But I couldnt find their website or anything so I can contact them. Does anyone know how to get these replaced through warranty??

uh how long has it been. i doubt they have a 5 yr warranty, thats usually the lifespan of "good" bulbs. did you buy from jay a while back i think vividlights.com or did he finally get shut down for bad business. yup looks loike it.there is no xtec website, you need to contact whoever sold it to you.

If all else fails, you can get any HID bulbs with an AMP connection.

99% of all plug n play HID kits use an universally adopted AMP connection.

No I didnt buy it from jay. I searched on google I couldnt find a xtec website but there were some websites that still sell the kit. The guy I bought it from closed his store. He went back to china unfortantly. He was a really cool guy he had replaced my bulbs once with warranty on the bulbs but hes not there anymore.

try ebay for the amp types then. i was looking at replacement bulbs for my audi projectors and they're not even $100 for a pair. so its not that expensive to replace yourself, and you can get a new color too if you want.
