    Maugan VX,
    no, the HID kit I referenced was for my A4 and came from Canada, Lltek I believe, there's always the chance it was operator error as well but my mechanic dealt with two ballast changes through the company with no improvement, I had more experience with my mechanic than I did with Lltek so I cut my losses and returned the product in exchange for store credit
    From what I understand, people have been generally pleased with Tone's products and he's a good supporter of the site if that helps any
    Good luck!

    I have Tone's kit and it has served me well with no issues for many years.

    Keep it at 5000K and no higher (higher numbers = bluer tint).

    I run 6500K and they are bright white with no blue tint at all. The research I did before I got them indicated that 6500K is the closest color temperature to actual bright sunlight. At night it lights up signs from quite a distance. Also the set of HIDs I got have shields around the undersides to make it so glare isn't reflected into oncoming drivers' eyes.
    The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on me.
