Default I know a lot of people are asking about HID's so if I started a GB how many people would be interest

I'm going straight to Phillips recommended distributor. They are in the UK but they come highly reccomended.

MTK Kommander as some of you know is one of our leadins authorities on HID's and he reccomended this site to me a while ago.

I have no account with these people I will organizing this "for the good people of HT.com"

I'm going to email them but I need to know how many people are seriously interested.

Thanks.

For us EG guys they have a reflector that takes the yellow out of beam pattern so it looks like true HID. They seem to be really high quality.

That system looks pretty good. The bulb seems to be like a real plug n play system, it even comes with a glare shield for improved beam pattern. So would do this just fit like my stock H4's? That's what I'm guessing. Depending on how long it would take to get here, and the price range, I might be interested.

Yup. Fit stock H4's I have emailed them about pricing for certain scenarios.

If we have 25-30 people, 20-25, 15-20, 10-15 etc. They usually respond by the end of the day or the following. So I may not get a response until Monday.

I might try to call by the end of the day.

I inquired about 9006, 9005, H4, H1, H3. I basically said we are a tight knit community and if I can a good deal on a bunch of kits regardless of what bulb type that there would be more business on the way.

Trey I will inquire for you.

is if it is just replacing the bulbs and using the stock headlight housing with no projector, then how would you get a cutoff line, wouldnt it just reflect the light in all directions?
i am in no way trying to undermine your gb but i dont see how that would get good results

D2R is used in reflective headlight housings.

Reading is fundamental.

http://www.autolamps-online.com/products/h4kit.htm: This shows the bulb with Beam adapter attached.

MTK Kommander showed me the diff on a 91-94 non projector lighted accord. I'll try to get the pics again.

Okay this is how it would work. I would setup a Honda-Tech.com specific password that would enable us to get discounts for us as members.

The best they could do is 5+ people would make it 10% off and 15+ people would make it 15% off. I have done you all the courtesy of breaking down what that mean pricing wise for each kit.


H1 4300k: 5+ people= $495.00 15+ people= $467.50
H1 6000k: 5+ people= $610.20 15+ people= $576.30
H4 4300k: 5+ people= $449.10 15+ people= $424.16
H4 6000k: 5+ people= $521.10 15+ people= $492.15

H4 Hylow 4300k: 5+ people= $540.00 15+ people= $510.00
Here is a vid of how it works: http://www.autolamps-online.com/gasd...low%20lamp.htm

It actually moves the position of the bulb itself so it is a true high beam H4 kit.

H7 4300k: 5+ people= $449.10 15+ people= $424.16
H7 6000k: 5+ people= $521.10 15+ people= $492.15
9005 4300k: 5+ people= $449.10 15+ people= $424.16
9006 4300k: 5+ people= $449.10 15+ people= $424.16
9006 6000k: 5+ people= $521.10 15+ people= $492.15

NSX kit 4300k: 5+ people= $540.00 15+ people= $510.00
NSX kit 6000k: 5+ people= $630.00 15+ people= $595.00

Okay now the kewl thing is say you are like me and you are impatient and you want to get your kit right now but there is only 6 people that want to hop on it @ the same time as you. You'd get the 10% discount.

Now if after you get the kit and you are singing its praises, people on the board start being more receptive to it and then 15 more people buy the kit.....they get 15% off. And the people that ought the kit when it was only 10% off get an additional 5% refund on their credit card so there is no penalty for buying early and we can keep this Gb open for a couple of months.


Warranty Info Taken straight form the site: "The product is sold with manufacturers warranty. No other warranty is expressed or implied.

Well the way that Autolamps wants to set this us with it doesn't matter if you want buy now or later. All that will happen is that if I buy now and by the time 3 months passes by we have 15+ people who have bought that means that everyone (From the people who bought in the begginning to the people who bought 3 months later) gets 15% off.

I figured now would be a good time to get everyone on this (being tax time and all).
