    not that ebay link, but also cheap ebay one, less than $75.
    go for it, you will love it!
    and you wont go wrong when install it, because the plugs are unique, only fit or not fit, you dont need to locate them ;) only possible wrong thing is negative and positive, but doesnt matter, just change back is fine

    yes, need to do a little surgery: drill some holes for the wires
    but it is not big, just take time and patience;)

    i have thought about 8000k too, but you know, we are driving zed, i m afraid blue or even more will draw cop's attention easily:cool:
    so i decide 6000k + 3000k= white + yellow, should be ok

    Hey,
    I'm thinking about buying some of these and I wanted to get the same as you. So it's just 4300k and H3 right? Cause I was just wondering if there is a difference for jap spec and aus spec..because currently I'm using the H3C in my jap spec zed, well I'm pretty sure I am..

    I had a read through the thread in the FSBB from that ebuyproduct guy and i think that H3 bulbs can be used in a H3C socket, i may be wrong tho..

    my zed is J-spec too, low beam and foggy are both using H3
    so yes, H3, 100% x 100% sure!

    H3 and H3C bases are the same and will clip into either housing. only difference is the plug on the back, which is irrelevant with HID's.

    Yay..I just bought a HID kit too..same as you 4300k H3 kit :D...
    Can't wait to do a comparison photo :)..

    Thanks for posting this thread up, I was always considering buying a kit but the price always put me off a bit, but for just over $70 delivered you can't go wrong..and everyone seems to think that the dearer doesn't mean better..

    Damn you Renee!

    Since you got them, im too tempted to say no, so looks like I am buying a set now... :D

    By the way, did you buy just the 4300? Or did you get a set for the fogs too?

    I bought mine Sat (16th) its Monday now and according to my tracking number my lights are still in China somewhere lol. Im driving around with 1 light right now lol. Gonna be a BIG difference when I finally get those HIDs in :thumbup:

    Hahhaha..you go buy a set too :p
    Nah left the foggies for the moment..don't know what I'm gonna do with them, cause they come on when I turn my lights on..like I can't turn them off..and I reckon if they were really bright like my new HIDs I'll get in the crappers..but yeah, I'm still thinking about the whole thing..

    As do mine, but I have a button next to the cruise control button and the light switch, that turns on my hallogens in the fog lights. My fog lights have 2 globes in them, one the stock and the other the hallogen, so it must've been done before I got it, but see if you have the light switch in your car.

    Yeah I've tested that..it does nothing..the wiring is all wrong in my zed..

    Maybe one of the fuses are out for the switch, or maybe you don't have the extra globe in there? Then you could just run the normal globes, and use that switch to turn on the HID's if needed.

    Is it safe to say everyone on here has probably ordered a set of these now? lol

    No worries :)
    I'm happy to have helped out so many members.
    The stock lighting in 300's is really crappy. HIDs bring them back to life :zlove:

    Just a note of interest - I was looking on the net and apparently HID bulbs get brighter after a few hours of use. Kinda like how brakepads get better after they've been bedded in. I can't wait to drive my car at night again!

    Be careful with that. Mate of mine had his 300 defected because both normal lights and fog lights turn on at the same time. :lame:

    Yeah I read that once installed they have to be left on for 5-15mins, and that after 50hrs of use they are worn in properly..well I think it was 50hrs of use..I'll need to re-read it again when it comes in..

    Yeah I know about that, but my foggies are like my parkers, they come on after the first turn and stay on with the driving lights with the second turn..
