Looky at what i just got

i personally have never had any problems with paypal. i think the company i got the lights from actually redirects you to paypal when your filling out your order thats how they receive payments. i think...


like i said, different companies use different methods. whatever they can do to make their system the most cost effective and easiest to put together. myself i really wasn't looking for any problems with mine that why i went with a little higher quality company like CATZ-FET. i had a set of driving lights from them that were outstanding that i paid a pretty penny for as well so i knew the quality and craftsmanship involved with what i was getting. these are deffinely not the cheapest system out there but they're one of the better names in the aftermarket lighting business. i'm just hoping the install goes alright without any problems which i'm sure it should. besides the ultra useful:rolleyes: japanese instrucitons it does come with very detailed english instructions.

i'd like to get these lights in possibly thursday night but more likely friday night because i'll be showing the car off and driving in the local St. Patricks day parade to advertise for a friends business.

i thought that was his wife:p

well boys time to go install the lights. i'll be back with all the info your requesting and hopefully teh victor of this little test tonight.
 
tell us how the install goes....
And how difficult you would rate the installation.
i'm worried about doing it on my own if i order a kit...because i'm a dumbie with it comes to these things.
tell us where you installed the ballast as well...
pictures are always great!
 
Hey guys i just posted in another thread titled Real HID with my kit versus the misterjung kit, i highly recommend his kit, no joke, it is the 7000k violet (its the one in my girls S10 next to my pro 5) hers are very bright white and purple, and mine are really blue-8000k's

i was thinking about getting HIDs, but

A) cost
B) not enough other people have them, so it makes u stick out.

of course, people with the spicy mica dont really care for B anyways... :p
 
at misterjung.com they are 379 shipped to your door, ready to install. Thats by far the best deal I have found.

sounds like a good price, maybe to people who have actual jobs, lol. most of the months paychecks go to just paying for the car...so id rather pay my 370 for the car payment than 379 for some lights, but yeah thats not bad price at all.
 
oh yeah thats a really super price for a set of low beam purple/blue lights. remember,the higher the kelvin# you get the more useless and basically ricey they are. i've still yet to take pictures due to the fact that,well, work sucks but how else am i going to pay the bills.

i promise by this weeked probably even friday night i'll have the pictures up. i'll probably start a new thread for it as wel
 
s*** if making them colored is ricey then all bmws, lexus', mercedes, and acuras are ricey as well, and dont say its because the projectors because they all do not use them, and also did you forget how easy it is to change bulbs if the results are not satisfactory. If i wanted plain white lights i would have stuck with stock. To each their own. hell if we want to get ricey what the hell is a car painted orange? not that i dont like a orange car/mazdaspeed but you need to redefine ricey. oh yeah what about your wing? isnt that a bit ricey? and another thing if the HIDS worked properly there would not be a use for the high beams, also a reason oem hids dont have them, so do a little more research!
 
Can someone tell me if your MAZADSPEED works on one bulb for everything? meaning, does our headlight bulb work as a daytime running light/ low and high beam?
Or is there a seperate bulb for the high beam?
 
Unfortunately for all of us who want to do HIDs, the MSP has H4 headlights. The H4 design bulb combines low and high beam into a SINGLE unit. I have only seen a couple quality kits out there that do both hi and low for H4. Most of the time, you just end up without one or the other.

The CATZ dual kit gets the Hi/Low effect by moving the bulb, and the Autolamps-online kit uses electronics to 'warp' the ionization pattern inside the bulb to get the effect of high and low beams.
I'm not sure how much the CATZ kit costs, but autolamps wants $600 for the 4k kit and $735 for the 6k kit.

Probably the best option for an MSP owner who wants HIDs would be to install the P5 lights, which DO have a separate hi and low beam bulb. Wiring required, though....

BTW, the reason one of out members called the 7k and 8k kits ricey was because to get that color requires filters that reduce the total light output of the bulb. Under the filter, they are the same bulbs as the lower value kits..... As for BMW and Audi, they actually use 4-5k bulbs in their systems, not 7k+.... They want LIGHT output, not spiffy colors....
 
I'd second that. I would prefer to put on P5 lights too. but if I am going for HID on my MSP, I would probably get the one from autolamps-online.com since their kits have the best quality.

exactly. that or they tint the bulbs. some even use different gasses. if your looking for some blue lights just go buy some cheap APC ones and save yourself a couple hundred bucks.

that link shows the CATZ system which i have and installed. alot of wiring between the ballasts,ignitors and high/low control box but easy as hell,plug N play all the way. nobody can screw this up i swear. below is a link to the site in which i purchased mine. $600 but worth every penny i think. great customer service as well.

enjoy till i get pictures of my own to put up.
 
In Canada, yes, the H4 is our running our daytime, lows/highs.

The P5 however, has 2 different bulbs.

I'm assuming the MSP is the same as the MP3...this is somthing I never looked at when I seen the speed
