Thanks to zendengoh . Advertised price 1k plus , so not sure exactly how
much.

Advertisement got two phone numbers and both are mobile nuumbers . No
confidence in buying products from advertiser who do not give out land
line phone number .

Zendengoh , would you by any chance knows anybody selling this kind of
conversion kit under these 2 brand names.

Drex, you mean all these branded HID conversion kit are not from them but
from some approved OEM factories in China ????

Or you mean they are high quality fakes . Kepala sudah pening.

wy4870,
BOSCH is China immitation. BOSCH Germany never produce any HID. As for
other brands that comes with price tag between RM400 - 600, are almost
95% made in China or Taiwan. The brands are registered in China and
everyone knows the intellectual property right in China is almost non-
existance. Any loaded businessman can order a thousand sets from China
and brands it as he likes.

Drex , thanks for the explanation. Wanted to buy a set to put into my
car and they are so many brands out there.

Some of my friends recommend Aura, some says Philips or Bosch . Some even
said, since all of them came from PRC , any brand will do.

Drex, what say you...me need help here.

i can`t say get it from me can I? Big Smile

BTW, it depends on your budget lar. If you are only willing to spend
RM400 - 500, budget PRC kits are your choices.

After all, it depends on the person who install it. 90% of the
malfunctioning cases are caused by the installer, not the product.

I have installed more than 30 cars with 3 diferent brands of budget PRC
HID kit in just a few months time and I have got only one call for wiring
problem, and that has to do with the condition of the stock wiring.

It really depends on whose hands were working on it.
