ok i ordered 4 of these sets. came quick, but this is what is pictured on the site with a black finish (even stated in description of ad)

and this is what i received:


I avoided the "slim ballast" because the connection to the ballast doesnt look safe imo, its only plastic and will break off very easily

Also I bought two of your 55 watt kits. The ballast is what is shown in the pic and looks good, however you sent me normal 35watt bulbs with 55 watt ballast. Im no doctor or anything, but shouldnt the bulbs be 55 watt rated as well with this kit?

please pm me back

HID bulbs typically do not have ratings of 35W or 55W; this is because the internal workings nor the chemical composition inside the bulbs do not change if you use 35W or 55W ballasts.

Instead, the increased wattage of the 55W system operates a bulb at a slightly higher color temperature, making the light brighter.

I bought 4 of these kits and they flicker.
1 ballast also died within 2 months.

Potential Solutions:
• Turn off the daytime running lights and/or auto-light on feature to prevent those features from affecting the operation of HIDs.
• A relay may be needed for specific vehicles to help regulate power for the kit so that the lights will stay on consistently.
• A pair of capacitors may be needed for specific vehicles to help store power for the kit so that the lights will stay on consistently.
• If the capacitors and/or relay fail to resolve this problem, there may be malfunctioning parts.
