the 70$ dollar kits seem perfect for the price dont they? BUT those 70$ kits usually dont hold up you will have ballast issues and possibly bulb issues.

now there are alot of kits out there that you can go with and so forth 270$ seems kinda high.

I use Gx Performance kits here locally and on my own cars and never a issue with them, had them on my mustang for a yr now and not one flaw.

just watch out for the ebay HID's iv installed those cheaper kits and there a pain (no wire harness) no tech support etc.

We support the forums here and also provide a discount to all members just by using the coupon code at checkout for 10% off: MUSTANG

Our HID kits work on all Mustang model years with no capatibility issues that the cheaper kits will have. The AM kits are standard 35w kits, not 55w and they also do not carry a lifetime warranty at their very high prices, they are just simply overpriced.

We are the ONLY manufacture/vendor offering bulb coating necessary for some 06 and all 07+ Mustangs!* Our kits come with a full lifetime warranty on bulbs and ballasts!

CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFROMATION

The DIGITAL brand has been a trusted brand by MustangForum members for 3 years running!

*bulb coating service is available purchased separately

These fall into that $70 cheap kit category you just said where not all that trustworthy. Then you said you used Gx Performance kits that are local to you in Sarasota Florida... but these are VIPHID branded sold in Minnesota going by the telephone number listed!!!!
