If so, he sells them slightly cheaper in case anyone is interested (63.99 shipped).
Looks like the same kit to me. Mine are still working like a champ.

Mydepot disappeared right after I bought mine, but I bought mine atthe same 63.99 price... kinda worried me, but now there on the car and working great! These 6000k's are bright and just enough tinted blue to be tasteful instead of all "look at me".

Well after hearing all the good about this kit I went ahead and bought a set for the headlights and a set for the fogs..

Unfortunatley they headlight buckets I ordered off of ebay still haven't arrived DOH! But today my dad and I nocked out the fogs.

The installation was fairly straight forward after we got all the active aero and splash gaurding out of the way (or so we thought). We got the fogs out and found we had to splice new connectors so the kit would work (we barely had enough wire to do this). We got it all wired up and had to drill out the little water tight plastic cover and had to silastic (spelling) seal it so it would be water tight. We then mounted the ballasts and fogs, connected all the connectors and we turned them on to see our work!

They came on immediately and got brighter as the ballasts warmed up. Over all I am very pleased with this kit, I just hope the bulbs last fairly long. After install, my dad said he will more than likely get two kits for the stealth, and maybe for the Spyder too .

Very happy with the kit and thanks for the post up of this great deal guys!

Zach.

I bought a set from IntenseHID on eBay ... the box is different, but from the pics of your ballast and the wiring, they look similar. Mine worked great for about 2 weeks, and the driver's side gave out. Still have to troubleshoot and see if it's the bulb or ballast. They worked great when they were working, though. Only $75 shipped too.

To anyone who bought kits from here Items for Sale by sinomedia :

Make SURE that you ground your ballasts (I took one of the corner screws out of the cover and then put a eyelet connector on two ends of a short piece of wire and grounded them to a GOOD chasis ground).

Without grounds, your alternator will not be able to keep a stable battery voltage and you will kill your battery EVERY TIME you use your lights for any appreciable time.

I thought our battery was shot, so I took it to a place to have it checked out. It was fine. Turns out it was THIS grounding issue.

I have this kit in all 3 of my cars. None of them grounded, most are held in place with a zip tie and have had them in the cars for over a year without issue. Great kit at a great price. I will continue to buy this kit, no down side I have found what so ever. And the Snake Eyes looks PIMP with HID bulbs ! -B.
