Trying to gather more interest from the HID group buy going on the Honda Pilot forum.

hi Joseph,

here are the prices for your group buy below. These are the lowest prices that we've ever released to keep up with the competition. Please inform your customers that not all "Philips kits" are created equal. There are many companies that can buy Philips capsules and ballasts but that is where the similarities end. Our difference starts with the quality of our injection molds. Compare Xenon King, Xenon Depot and Lava Lighting's bulb bases and it is easy to see a quality difference. We not only guarantee a correct base fitment, we also guarantee that the focal point is correct for an optimal beam pattern. That is very important! Every so often we see pictures from other competitor's kits where their customers seem happy but they didn't seem to notice that their beam pattern was slightly distorted. This is often due to poor rebasing quality control. If the focal point if off by just half a millimeter, you should notice a less then optimal light output.

Then there is our dual relay harness difference. We offer a setup where each individual ballast is connected to a separate relay harness with built-in fuse. This way if a relay does fail, then only one of your lights go out. Our competitors either do not offer a relay setup or offer a single harness. If that single harness relay fails, then both of your lights go out... this isn't a good thing especially at night!

The next difference is the quality of our wiring and connectors. We've tried both Molex to AMP and found something better. Wiring and connectors are important in these HID applications because they are subjected to moisture, heat, high-voltage and currents. Being in the business since 2001, we have tried and ditched many brands and use only the best in our products. The connectors and wiring have made a difference in the warranty return rates and the longevity of the HID system as a whole.

Warranty is another important characteristic of our company that sets us apart. We actually honor our warranty claim for 5 years (the longest in the industry) unlike other companies than have bailed on their customers after the initial purchase. It's sad but it happens more often than you may believe. Many customers from our competitors have bought from us after not being able to get a warranty claim from their previous supplier. But there is a catch for this group buy if you'd like to see it that way. Normally we cover shipping costs to the customer for warranty claims but for this group buy there will be a $15 S&H cost for each claim to help lower the group buy cost.

My recommendation for Honda Pilot owners is to run the dual relay setup especially because it's a new car. This way dealerships can't blame the owner for warranty issues caused by the HID system as it bypasses the factory wiring.

There are 3 numbers listed below as XXX/XXX/XXX. Each represents the HID system as follows:
price with wiring harness (not a relay setup)/price with single relay harness with fuse/price with dual relay harnesses with fuses
