Plug N' Play HID's !!

[Ranger]

Yeah, thanks assjack!

Don't worry gunny, I'm sure our simple ballasts will far outlast his fancy pants bubble gum sized "digital" ballast...

[MAN]

Can he get the new digital slim ballasts kits? Like this kit http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200363170986&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT. If so, I would be in! I don't want the old style ballasts. The old style don't last as long or look as good as the new digital kits. If he can get them I would pay the difference for the slim kit... Thanks!  

I think they come with a five year warranty....

You will need it... That is if they are in business that long. I have had 5 sets of the old style myself in 4 years, there junk. Now I have the new style HID's in the head and fogs on my truck and Jeep. They old style will only last 8-18 months and will be a lot less with the vibration on a ATV. They came out with the digital slim kits for a reason.

Man,

Sucks that you knew about all this and sat back and watched while we were talking about it. Thanks for being the barer of bad news and making me into an ass. Your the man...

I have not been on here for a week or so.. My bad!! Work has been crazy. I was in NO way trying to make you look like a ass at all. I just know there is better deals if you know what to look for.

Ranger's just sticking up for me, don't mind him he's just being a smartass. Either way they advertise as 5000 hrs (on the ones I have) I believe and 5 yr warranty.... so if they last a couple hundred hours I'd be happy I guess. Just an fyi, I've heard the same complaints on ALL hid's even the big/small, digital/analog, but I've heard way more good then the few bad on all. The big vs small might be an issue , but we are talking about a cigarette box vs a pack of orbit gum they both fit in your pocket.

PS, Its funny how some advertise a 6000k light as being 3 times brighter then a 6000k light. CRIPES!

Diggs, your crazy, but I like you...

Anyone want to buy a set for mister broke and unemployed?

[Ranger]

Just installed mine...Works perfect, still trying to find a good spot for the ballasts that don't require drilling into a major frame section...Have em bolted to the upper headlight bracket for now.

Survived the splash test, There was a lil more water than it looked like across the street and I was like "uh-oh" cause I didn't seal the dust covers yet (had to cut a LOT out to make room for the bulbs).

Gonna do the truck later, looks like rain now and it's gonna take me about 45 minutes just to take the grille and headlight assemblies apart.

[Gunz]

(had to cut a LOT out to make room for the bulbs).

Um Patrick, did you take off the round clear packaging case around the light before you installed it?














CRIPES!

[Ranger]

Yes.dumbass it aint the first time i've done hids...I just didnt want too put too much pressure on the bulb as i put it through the hole...The hole aint that huge, I just cut around the 3 wires coming out

[Gunz]

Ok, I got ya now. I just cut the oem wires by the dust cover, made a small slit, and jammed the new plug (instead of bulb) through. Show us a pic of your lights beotch.

[Ranger]

Probably should've just taken the plug off the ballast haha, thought about it but it was wedged in pretty good...I didn't really hit the bulb too much, and I wiped it with a clean cloth before I locked it in...

SEXY Ranger!!!!

Sorry  I haven't updated this guys. I have been on vacation since wednesday eve so. I've updated the list w/ who has paid. I'll work on updating with who's recieved. and I also sent out a few more PM's for payments for the new guys jumping in!

[Gunz]

Just got an email from the guy offering us the group buy deal....

Hey Mike,

Just wanted to educate your boy on the forum talking about the new slim ballast vs std ballast. Please let him know that the size has nothing to do with digital.  The ballasts I sent to everyone are the standard size and they are digital ballasts.

I also carry the slim ballasts and will glady offer those up for $110 shipped to anyone that prefers those over the standard.

I did not send anybody's kit with a relayed harness as most Raptor's will fire both lights without it. I will gladly provide one to anybody that needs it if there quad does not light both lights.

If someone just wants to buy a harness, I will sell it for $10 and that includes the shipping.

So that settles that haha...The slim ballast'd be nice for easier mounting options but they work just as well...When I do my valves I'll have the front plastics off and probably remount them to the radiator support.

Truck's done! The grille was a beeyutch to get off (the pins kept wanting to clip back in as I was moving down) but I found a good mounting spot that's behind a splash shield on the radiator support...



Little odd thing- the glass enclosure on my truck's kit had a solid bottom that would not slide back over the bulb, so I had to break it (after the bulb was in and away from anything critical) to get it out...Other than that, works perfect...I already pulled my DRL fuses so they will not come on during daytime.
