abervintageman42 Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 LOLScrew that! A $30 hid kit will most likely fail continuously. A lifetime warranty dont mean much in my eyes... So now every couple months when the el-cheapo ballast burns up, you gotta get under the hood, take it out, put a factory bulb back in, look like a fool in a clown car driving with 2 different type bulbs, pay to ship your item back to the company, wait at least 1-2 weeks for them to receive and or fix your broken ballast, most likely pay return shipping, take out your factory bulb put the new ballast in. and then pray it dont happen again, which it probably will. Spend the money on a good kit once, and never have to worry again. Futurevision HIDs are great kits with and Bruno provides great customer service and fast shipping. I love mine and work flawlessly. Im also pretty sure SMD members get a 10% discount!!! I messed around with cheap kits in the past with these lifetime warranties and had to argue with the company because I was told I installed them wrong. I got so sick of the problems and doing what I listed aboved and got my futurevisions and never looked back! ive had friends who have had their kits for over 2 years w/ no problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clouduz Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 yeah i have el cheapo 50 shipped hid kits (lows and fogs) off ebay for 2 years now and haven't had a single problem. Price doesn't mean it will last longer or indicate that it SHOULD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why by sundown, rockford, stetsom, sd, cactus, DD, quality amps when you can pay less and get the same sq, power and quality with Boss, Pyle, Pyrmid, kole amps for 1/20th the price......

audiofanaticz Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 i really dont see how your comparing HIDs to car stereo.... Im not... Im comparing brand named items that have reputation as quality products to cheap ebay products that you buy on the cheap, but never get what you pay for out of them. :01nocomment8so: Theres tons of threads on this site alone of people that bought these cheap kits and they have failed numerous times. However, most people are not smart enough to use the search feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indytrucks Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 i really dont see how your comparing HIDs to car stereo.... That exact thought was going through my head as I scrolled down and saw your post There is ABSOLUTLY nothing wrong with DDM. In fact I just ordered some for my Jeep about an hour ago. That is why I clicked on this in the first place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTX J30 Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 When you buy a cheap ebay kit you are taking a gamble. It could be good it might not be. Quote Once or twice I have missed having a back seat / rear hatch, but all in all people love to see a walled vehcile. It just screams "i'm not fucking around with my setup, im loud" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because futurevisions does this too, I found a small error with their site and sent them a PM, it was fixed in a couple minutes.. I have seen how they treat their customers.. Just give your plastic HIDs a month or two then come back and if they didn't melt then kudos to you.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
