Looky at what i just got

[MikeBlueP5]

hate to break it to you twisted and phantom neither my bulbs or her bulbs are tinted. IT is the gas mixture inside the bulb. There are no filters or caps, or crummy paint on the bulbs. Research more comn guys if you wanna dis on people or at least try then figure out what you are talking about first. and by the way i want you to find a set of APC bulbs that come near to the amount of light ours put out. To each their own man. If you want white go for it. If I want slightly tinted purple bulbs then im gonna do it and another thing to tell you your car will blind anyone just like mine if not aimed properly so dont even start on that topic, these cars werent meant to have hids so the only "REAL" way to get them is to do a retrofit. Sorry to hear that you think that just because your hids are made by Katz that they are superior, but ya know what thats funny if they were so good then why werent they used in OE like mine? Damn thats odd! Oh well! you like your lights ill like mine how about that?

I'd put money on it that an APC Hyperwhite 130 watt bulb would put more light out.
It's your car anyway so do what or think what you want.

i do think they're superior. how many other kits come with high and low beams? sure there's a couple but do they have the quality thats been proven by KATZ? and what are your bulbs the original equipment on anyway? last time i checked Philps and Orsam didn't make aftermarket light kits and those are the 2 main distributors of OE.

here's a couple quick pictures i snapped while cleaning the car up in the garage. obviously not a good palce to do it and it nowhere near catches the true lighting output of the bulbs. i will get pictures of the car on the road this weekend

THere are a lot of vendors out there, but please remember that not all HID kits are created equal.

I have heard so many complaints about Mr. Jung it isnt even funny. Goto the BMW boards and the Honda boards, he has ripped off so many people.

Check out http://www.hidforum.com

Also, http://www.liteswap.com uses a secure encrypted server with their own merchant account.

The reason why some places use Paypal is because they either do not have credit or have so many chargebacks (credit card complaints) that they cannot get approved for one.

looks ballz to the wallz clean, very professional kit, looks like something you'd see on a tasteful showcar, good job bro!

now... to get me a set..

 

[Limited Edition]

Those HID's look really good.
They are aimed exactly where i'd like them..
Although i still wish they were 6000K with more of a bluish/purpish hue like you'd find on a BMW. Please post more poctures of your install and where you placed your ballast.

Post pictures of both high and low beams on a road..
Thanks!

i'm not sure who this LITESWAP member is but if its Eric at Liteswap.com then he knows is stuff and is great with customer service. the customer service thing i can't stress enough. i mean its one thing for somebody to just sell a product to somebody else and have the attitude of "here ya go,thanks for the money. now don't bother me again unless you bring back more of the green stuff." the guys at Liteswap.com weren't like that at all when i purchased my kit. and because of this reason i've already persauded some friends who were ready to but cheaper lesser named kits from another online vendor, cough cough (mr.jung)cough. i haven't heard the most repuatable of stories about those kits that are sold on that site nor have i actually yet to see one. but thats how alot of internet business goes,how many people actually come in contact with the products first? its more word of mouth. if you want great products and even better custmer service go with Liteswap.com's stuff. you won't regret it.

as for the pictures they honestly don't do it justice. yes they are nice but the lights are so much brighter and clearer than could ever be captured by my camera.

Hey there twizted, it is I, Eric

I cruise our reference stat folder once in a while and saw some hits coming from here so I decided to stop on by. I forgot about this forum as we currently sponsor the Mazda6club.

twizted, I know you have told a lot of people about us, thanks for the compliment!

 

[twiztedjeckel]

hey, i do what i can and back a product when a transaction goes as smoothly as this one did and i come away grinning like an idiot due to the outragously cool Xenon lights i bought and installed myself(with the help of The_Glassman of course)

i told you Liteswap, i'd spread the word. actually i think i'm going to go over to the RX-7club and talk them up a little over there as well. there's a thread going on right now about HID kits and installs. those guys are always looking to spend money on their cars because the lighting on the 3rd gen TT cars sucks so horribly.

i was going to go out and snap a few quick pictures of the car on the road but its snowing and the wind is blowing horribly up here so it'll have to wait for another day. sorry guys

one more thing in response to MikeBlueP5, how is your HID kit OE? Seems you got decieved from some vendor's marketing ploy that just because it uses a Philips ballast, it is OEM. Catz has components that are OE in Acura, Infiniti, and Lexus... does that mean that a Catz kit is OEM? NO. Your kit most likely doesnt use a capsule that is made by a OE supplier (
Philips, Osram, GE). No OE supplier produces a bulb higher than 6000K.

Also, in regards to those asking about 6000K colors.. keep in mind that it takes some time for the capsules to "break-in" The temperature rating WILL rise after time.

To me, it is silly to offer anything greater than 6000K. We have had many requests and people approach us for these kits and we have to "educate" them everytime. It is quite annopying actually because some vendors out there have somehow clouded the minds of customers and making them think the higher the K, the better. We could offer 6000K+ kits at anytime and would sell plenty of them, but we believe in selling functional, QUALITY kits.

We have a couple other options in 5500K and 6000K, but I personally do not recommend them.
