I'm pretty sure that the ones sold from Matrix are the same ones you find on Ebay. Matrix is good though, I've dealt with them before.

Ijust bought a set of those and I'm not to sure if I want to keep them, they have never been installed they are brand new in the box, I'm just debating if I want them or not. Let me know if you are interested and if you are I can give you a better deal than what they are selling them for

The only problem with them that i have is the whole halo doesn't light up, just the bottom half. You can see it in the pic..
But other than that they look good to me
IMO

I had a set of TYC prjectors and I sold them. They are good for looks and all but when it came to lighting up the road they sucked. So I switched back to my cleared stocks. Much better.

Mine didn't and I went through 3 different types of bulbs. They were ok on dry pavement but wet sucked ***. Some people say they were bright as hell, all you have to do is adjust them to hit the road more. I did this and they still sucked. I like my stocks better. Won't have to worry about HID look-a-like bulbs soon, my Audi is on it's way!!!!!!!!!

Cleared stock headlights
I think it was the best mod I did. Cheap, noticable and fairly easy. (Haha took me around 6 hours the first time on my car, the next time it took just about an hour.) I didn't have a single problem with it by following the DIY. Its noticable, yet subtle and sets you apart from all the senior citizens who drive 7th Gen civics. Clear your stock lights and put some aftermarket bulbs in there.

Yep thats the best way to go by clearing your headlights. Looks a lot more cleaner even though a lot of people do that. Just make sure you double seal em' really good. I had those angel eyes and they suck ballz big time[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG]. Couldnt see a thing, sold it for $150 and i bought it for $200, oh well [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG]

I have went through 2 sets of bulbs on my angeleyes. I think I will sell them on ebay. It should get mea quarter of my HIDs. I'm going to paint my stock ones and clean it and reseal right this time. Teh angel eye socket is too compact and gets too hot. The reason why I have gone through the three sets of H1 bulbs. I have to APC super white on my car right now and they are decently bright, not as bright as the silver stars though.

I have also seen a lot of confusion between the Kelvin rating and the colors. IF you go by the wave length(rainbow, remember ROY G BIV), the lower Kelvin rating should be blue and 10K should be purplish. All the HID kits are not regulated. I have seen 8000k look blue on one kit and the 6000k look purple on most kits. My friend has HID plus 9000K on his supra. They are purple. I saw this GS400 last night with blue HIDs everywhere(headlights, fog lights, and parking lights). I want my car to be all blue and black. Guess what I am getting. My friends are all telling me to get 9000k, but i think I will stick with 5000k - 6000k. Now just what company...?
