FS: HIDs kits (previously a GB), 3-5 day turnaround, no min order! Pix pg 1 and 13. Options

[GriffGirl]

Edit: I'm currently working with a local supplier, and as such am able to receive and ship within an average turnaround time of 1 week, often less as he stocks 9006s in white to blue colors since they're the most popular for him. All specs on the kits are the same as before. I've been running this same kit in my own car since July 08, with battery acid on one of the ballasts even, and have had no problems whatsoever with them. And it rains here. A LOT. For 8 months out of the year. So I feel totally confident in the quality of these kits.

Here are the details on the kits:

For sale are HID kits shipped to your door for US$134.00 (this price is for the continental US).
High/Low HID kits are available (for cars that use the same bulb for the highs as the lows, not Celicas). Cost is $165 shipped w/in lower 48.
AK, HI, APO/FPO & International shipping rates vary greatly; please PM me for current shipping quotes.


Description:
-Kit includes 2 HID ballasts, 2 HID bulbs, mounting brackets and screws, and necessary wiring/plugs. The kit is plug and play and plugs into your current headlight wiring harness.
-Warranty: 1 year
-Specification:
Normal Input Voltage: 12V
Allowable Input Voltage: 9V-16V
Normal Input Current: 3.5A
Ignition Voltage: 23KV
Operating temperature: -40degree ~ +105degree
Life Time: >2000 hours
Luminous flux: 3, 200 LM
Bulb Watt: 35W

Available lamp types:
H1, H3, H4, H4(hi-lo), H4(H/L),H7, H9, H11, H13, 9004, 9005, 9006, 9007, D2S, D2R(suitable for all kinds of auto, such as BMW, BENZ, AUDI)
Color Temp: 4500K, 5000K, 6000K, 8000K, 10000K, 12000K

Here is a guide you can use to see the color temperatures. This is only an estimate: what you see may vary from monitor to monitor; further, I pulled this from the internet and it is not intended to be an exact representation.


This is the actual kit (photographed by myself, not a generic picture)


This is a 9006 HID bulb up close (photographed by myself, not a generic picture). Sorry it's kind of blurry. I'll work on replacing it with a better shot.


You can choose the color temp of your preference as well as the bulb type.
When ordering, I will need to know the bulb type and color temp you want, as well as your location if you are outside US.

Payment will be accepted via paypal or money order.

My paypal account is mjgriff1 (at) gmail.com PLEASE include your name, site user name, address, color temp and bulb type. I don't want to misplace any orders and all this info will be necessary for confirming your order.

[NgoFcukinWay]

I've been meaning to ask this, but are the ballasts and whatnots waterproof?

[GriffGirl]

They are well sealed to protect from water/moisture, and although they are purported to be waterproof, it would probably be more accurate to say that they are very water resistant. As far as resistance to normal conditions, you should not have a problem as long as everything is mounted properly and securely. However should you recover your vehicle from a pond or lake at some point in the future, I wouldn't count on the HID kit being salvageable.

[supaneko]

9006 is the headlight type for a '95 ST, correct?

Now... Since we have the headlights separated, would it look odd having the 8000k color for the low beams and then off-white for the high beams?

Definitely interested. Just gotta get my questions answered and you can count me in!

Yes, 9006 is the low beam, 9005 is for high beams.

This is for all non-projector type headlights correct? Then would the projectors require the H1 bulb?

... and these are plug 'n play correct?

Correct, that is for stock USDM bulbs. JDM low beam projectors are H1.

[pittfirefighter]

Griff... i have a blown ballast and bulb from sets that are still under warranty.... should i go through you for these or culp?

[GriffGirl]

Since they were purchased through Culp, you should go through him for any warranty stuff.

[supaneko]

You mention plug 'n play but I was under the impression that the HID would require a "kit." A box for the transformer or whatever it is for the bulb and then of course the switch (possible not?) and bulb + wiring itself. Easy install I take it. Just connect the bulbs, run the wires, mount the box, and play?

[GriffGirl]

The box has a plug that goes to the wiring harness for your bulbs, then there's one plug off the other end that goes into the box, and there's another plug off that end of the box that the HID bulb itself plugs into. It's a little hard to describe but when you get the kit, you'll see exactly what I'm talking about. And yes, it's super easy to set up. The most "difficult" part is mounting the bracket for the ballast (which of course isn't difficult at all!)

[GriffGirl]

bump, let's get this list goin' so we can get an order placed, eh?

[CaliJeff]

do we have to get 15 before the order can be placed?

[GriffGirl]

Yeah, unfortunately it's the minimum order I can place. I put a thread up at celicatech for them too, to try to help move things along a bit. If it doesn't pick up in the next week or so, I'm gonna push the date back to Monday, September 15th.

[DEATH]

Come on ya'll - these are really nice HIDs - I have them on my car and I can tell you they are durable as hell too. My horror story:
Previously my ballasts weren't mounted - just left rolled up near the lights. Well one day I was driving on Houston's Inner most loop and since it's so old but still gets Hella traffic it has some really rough spots. I Hit one of those bumps in the road that basically looks like a speed bump but at freeway speeds [70mph here] so it's one of those ones that lifts the drink from your cup holders and bangs your head aginst the roof at the same time. So as I'm trying to recover my drink, rub my head and keep the car straight I didn't hear that the DS side ballast had fallen through the big hole next to the battery inside the fender well area. So basically the ballast was hanging by it's wires and bouncing between the ground and the tire doing 70mph down a rough ass freeway for several blocks.
Got home - repaired the wiring and mounted them properly and they fired right back up and have not had any problems since. That's durable IMO. Mount yours up correctly the first time and you'll never have a problem with them durability wise.
Further to this - Griffgirl is a good and trustworthy seller and she needs your business to fund some desperately needed tires. Buy some already!

1st post edited - I'm extending this out to the 15th of September to allow some more time to get this order together and give some of the Celicatech guys a chance to get in on this too. Don't forget, you don't have to just get these for your 6gcs, you CAN get other bulb types for other cars too!

[massbrandon]

Can you guys still get the IIRC 3K kits for the fog lights? If so I would want a pair. Let me know ASAP

[GriffGirl]

I'll have to ask Culp about that one, I think that might be a special request deal. I'll get back to you as soon as possible though, hopefully by the end of the day today (PST)

[Culpable04]

no special request, that's 100 % possible. we can pretty much get any type of HID.

Hey guys, I hate to do this but I am going to have to drop of the list for now. School and work are already not coexisting well and I am going to drop my hours at work down. I will keep an eye on the list and hopefully get back on when we are close. I just didn’t want 15 people to sign up and then I would not be able to come up with the cash. Hope this is not going to cause too much trouble GriffGirl. Sorry for any inconvenience I just didn’t want to wait till the last minute.

Thanks for understanding GriffGirl, It means a lot to me.

She is a class act!

[massbrandon]

So Culp, what is the actual temp for those? And as long as you c=guys can for sure get them add my name to the list.

No - you definetly won't need the projectors to use these. I don't have projectors but I have these HIDs and they are great - way more output than stock halogen bulbs.

[GriffGirl]

^ What he said! I also don't have projectors - I will get night time pictures this weekend; with the halogen bulbs in my fog lights, you'll be able to see a VERY clear distinction between the HIDs and the halogens. It's a really great upgrade.

Only 4 days left so now's the time to get in on this if you've been thinking about it! Local delivery is available for those of you in the Portland area who might like to save on the shipping! (hint-hint Legit!!!)

It appears there's no electricity in and around Houston due to Hurricane Ike, so I'm gonna push this 'till next Monday (the 22nd) so people can send payment. Hopefully power will be restored by then. So bump! if anyone else wants to get in on this GB.

Those of you who haven't paid yet, please do so so once the Houston guys are in, we can proceed. Thanks!

4300 H3 bulbs. Brightest and those are the bulbs you need I believe.

[GriffGirl]

Bump! I wanna finish this GB off so I can get the orders out - if anyone is considering picking up a set, please do so now so I can close out this round and we don't have to wait any longer

[CaliJeff]

Griff, quick question, where are these being shipped from?

[GriffGirl]

They'll come to me first, so once I get 'em and inspect them, they'll go out. I'm in Oregon - 97206

[GriffGirl]

BUMP

[CaliJeff]

Free Bump for Griff! YARRRR GUYS! Vanimos

[GriffGirl]

bump let's go kiddies time's runnin' out!!!!!

[CaliJeff]

griff, if one were to use the bulbs only, and there was no HID to power it, what would be the results?
Also, how much for a purchase of bulbs only?

[DEATH]

I'm just thinking ahead and ordering spare bulbs plus I hate the blue color of the ones I already have [personal preference - they look/work great if you like the blue] so my spares will be the ones that are in it ATM.
I don't believe the bulbs will work with the regular wiring at all but IDK. The ballasts just look to be large capacitor/transformer type but electricals aren't my bag so...

[GriffGirl]

bulbs only are $45; no, they wouldn't work w/out the ballasts though, sorry

[wannabealilfaste...]

I have heard these are illegal in cali without having projectors to point them at the ground. Supposedly because of the stock housing the light will blind people at night , and you supposedly need projectors because they are aimed at the ground. Any truth to this because i would hate to get behind a cop if i had a set i already seen a buddy get a ticket for it.

[massbrandon]

Do you still need another person?

[GriffGirl]

Yes!

As far as the legality in Cali - if your headlights are aimed properly, it really shouldn't be an issue. IDK if technically they are legal or not, but plenty of people in Cali have them, that's for sure.

[GriffGirl]

Okay, I've gotten further clarification as to the legality of HIDs:

They are illegal on most states, it basically comes down to " if your car didn't come with them from factory they are illegal" except those that have HIDs as an option and even those would have to change the headlamp housing for HIDs, as halogen lamps and HIDs are different as well.

So basically it's install at your own risk... I haven't had any real issues w/mine. I got stopped in Cali at like 3 am in the redwoods, but my headlights weren't aimed properly (my d/s was kinda whacked out). The cop asked me if they were stock and I told him they weren't, and he was just like "wow, those are really bright, get those aimed." No biggie.

So after you've ordered them - how long will it take to process/ship?

[GriffGirl]

Here's the update: order went in on the 6th. I'm guessing I should receive product some time between the 24th and the 31st. I will post another update as soon as I have more info. Thank you to everyone for your patience with the unforeseen delay what with Hurricane Ike and all, and of course thanks to Culp for extending me the courtesy of accepting an order below the minimum this time around.

So they come to you first, and then you ship to us?

[GriffGirl]

Si señor. That way I can inspect them before sending them out too, to ensure they are the correct item and are in good order.

[stephen_lee]

when will the next GB be, or will you be able to sell them individually as culp did?

[GriffGirl]

I'd like to get another GB in time for everyone to get delivery by Xmas, but it depends on the turnout. I'm more than happy to start another one now, with the date left open-ended for the time being until some more names start popping up on the list. I don't want payment for them though until we have a confirmed date for this next round.

So, who's down for Round 2?

[stephen_lee]

I've had these lights for over a year and i LOVE them. very good buy and totally worth it

[GriffGirl]

bump - looking to see if there's interest in another round, I'd love to get it going so everyone can have them in their hands by Xmas

[GriffGirl]

Package tracked on DHL.com - looks like it's in Portland, should arrive to me either later today or tomorrow. Will update once I get it.

[CaliJeff]

I"M SO FREAKIN ANXIOUS

[GriffGirl]

Edit: They got delivered to my house but no one was there to receive it! Crap, I thought I was having them sent to my job.

Hopefully they left a thing I can either sign or a note where I can go get them in person.

[GriffGirl]

I signed the slip so they'll be left at my back door today

Tonight when I get home I will inspect all of the packages and ship stuff out tomorrow & Thursday

[CaliJeff]

hip hip hooray!
