RE: HID Conversion Kit - BULB OUT FIX
ORIGINAL: Madcrazy10
I want to thank AAudiA6 for his help. He kindly gave me a call and told me very simply the best way to install the kit. I didn't even use the relay harness and just hooked it directly up to the existing wiring. The instructions should say that you can use either or in the beginning but they are very very fuzzy.
Once I got off the phone with him my kit was working in an hour. Thanks again.

Our office was closed last week.
Glad to hear that you got everything installed successfully.
Please be sure to share the photos.
Thank you, and happy new year

Alright.. Sorry for the delay here but i got them on and pics snapped. I went with 8000k as i wanted the blue color..goes with the theme. 3000k would be ideal if i wanted the yellow. I know the pics arent great.. camera isnt too special and i suck as a photographer but here they are. Im happy with them, theyre great.

RE: HID Conversion Kits - ONLY $200 - FREE SHIPPING!
This is probably a stupid question (but hey, i'm a n00b, right??), but what's the worst that'll happen if the relay harness provided with the kit is not used? The instructions suggest that 'the relay harness is designed to protect the ballasts from power surges and other electrical complications'. So, if the relay harness is not used, the ballasts and or HID bulbs might get damaged during use? Howlikely is that to happen? Does the power coming from the headlight harness fluctuate that much? Am just trying to decide whether or not to use the relay harness (as it seems to complicate the install a little bit - and would be less 'clean-looking'). But at the same time, if it's better to use the relay harness, I'll do that. With the relay harness in place, do you still get the 'bulb-out' message? (I imagine you might since it's only 35W compared to 55W, and you're only connecting through one headlight harness that anyway).
I can't wait to get these working!!

In the end, we would suggest using the installation method that best fits your vehicle.
As for the bulb out error, we usually don't have that with Audi's. If you happen to get it, you can pick up a resistor for $2-$3 for any electronics store, and this should fix the problem.
Please let us know if you have any further questions or concerns.
Thank you again

Vision,
How good are the xenon match bulbs? COuld you tell me a little about them? It is between them and a conversion kit...one being much cheaper, but your website suggests them to be high quality.

In all honesty, you get what you pay for. The Xeno-Match will whiten the output, but they wont be much brighter than what you currently have with your halogen set.
With HID, you notice a drastic difference.
If you're able to shell out the extra money, we would highly recommend going with the HID.
Thank you in advance

Ok, so what HID set should I get? And is it just for low beams?? What about fog lights, etc?
I have a 2002 AUDI A4. Let me know. maybe 6000k or 8000k? Does this then make it true xenon?

You would need a kit for your low beams. If you also wanted to convert your fog lights, you would need to purchase a second kit.
As for color, we would recommend the 6000K.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.
Thank you in advance
