I'm already in line for a retrofit or I'd be on your committment list. I hope you can get enough interest, though. This is definitely a good deal for a set of OEM HIDs.

FINAL DAYS...

Even though we have THREE commitments, the seller has agreed to do the $900 pricepoint. That said, we're going to close this out on Saturday morning (12/8) at 10am CST. You should receive the PAYPAL invoice from the seller on Saturday. Pending payment is received over the weekend, your lights will ship Mon or Tues.

Thanks,

I have emailed him individually and he's normally VERY quick with a response... I have requested that the sites' members get a discount but, I don't have a final answer yet. As soon as I have something I'll post it up here...

I can, with 100% confidence, tell you that I've experienced NO feedback/static with my install - which includes the adapter harness.

The light output over stock halogen is incredibly different (for the better). High beams with halogen are okay; with HID it's DAYLIGHT.

I think they look better - and they're a DEFINITE safety upgrade for the vehicle. Same price; I'd do it again in a heart beat now that I've seen it with my own two eyes on my truck.

Pics, please!

With my truck being the same color as yours, I'd like to see what they look like agin' the ol' DBPM. This could be the factor that prods me over the fence, lack of cash be damned.

The harness is very good quality. It is a Morimoto (brand) cable that has been modified with an additional in-line fuse (with holder) and Ford OEM pigtails to connect directly to the headlights. My cable had been shrink fitted and had looming over all additional wires. It was very easy to conceal beneath the radiator shroud.
