[DML] Re: Who wants "TRUE" HID headlights???

["turbodelorean" <dmcfan@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes I realize that the Sylvania kit is an HID kit. The reason why I 
called it a true HID kit is because of the projectors. The older 
forms of HID did not use projectors and the lighting was improved 
but with the use of projectors brings out the best performance in an 
HID set up. Sylvania's kit also does not use the greatest parts 
available for the money. The kit's are made through HID Performance 
in CA and will be sold through a DeLorean vendor. They make all 
custom made HID lighting systems for every car. Also one guy said 
these have to be DOT approved. The kit is made with all parts that 
are here in the US and on multiple cars. Any high end car you see 
with HID headlights use the Philips D2S or D2R bulbs. I also realize 
that for some people the price would seem out there but like I said 
call any parts dept at Audi, BMW, etc and see how much it will cost 
for the components that our kit has, it is over $1,700.
