GREAT HID'S ON EBAY (seller HIDGATE)

I'm new to this forum as I have just purchased an 05 300C and my first mod was 8000k HID in the lows and fogs. I researched this site and found a wealth of excelent info. I decided to buy from HIDGATE on ebay. After reading about relays, capacitors, going to radio shack etc. on the forum I was a little skeptical about tackling this mod as I have no mechanical/electrical skill. HIDGATE includes everything including capacitors already wired in and insulated. The box was plain and obviously opened (from wiring the relays presumably) but when I opened the box I found each light had 3 pieces. balast-bulb-relay. It doesn't get any easier than that, the connections are very obvious and anyone can do this mod. Once I installed the units using the many great how-to's on this site I could not believe the quality of the light. It is exactly what I was going for, very blue but not a light blue. The color is deep dark blue and looks great on my blue 300. Some of this is repetitive but I just wanted to share my positive expirience with this community because I found it so useful myself.

I will post some pictures later of the HID'S at night. Also FYI I didn't have to reverse anything with the lights. It appears the polarity is fixed by the seller. There is also a fuse attached to the harness which appears to be installed very professionaly. Just hook everything up normal, mount the ballast and that's it! I will have pictures of that as well.

Here are some pics of my HIDGATE HID's. The kit also comes with a couple of pieces of 3m tape and a mounting bracket (shown in pic) which you don't have to use depending on were you mount the ballast.
