Review on πŸ’‘ H1 8000K HID Xenon Iceberg Blue Bulb by XENTEC - 1 Pair by Sean Julian

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great product at the right price

So the car I bought had these headlights and of course one assumes. For about $99 at the store I figured who needs to drive at night. Checked, found them in several places for a $50 pair. Then I thought why Revain doesn't have everything else. $32 with overnight delivery. (Something like that, don't quote me). Anyway I thought why not. sooo I ordered them on a Friday evening, the order was processed on Saturday with an estimated arrival date on Wednesday (doesn't sound overnight to me). On Monday I came home in daylight, checked the mail, and there were headlights that went faster than light. I felt like a frog and installed them immediately, the first attempt was a terrible failure. Apparently the ballast block in my car is slightly damaged (I recommend buying complete with ballast and headlights). I turned on my light and nothing but disappointment. Looked under the hood again and found the ballast was broken and the pins had to be reinstalled. Plugged it in making sure the wire took the pin. BAM Vudoo Magic I had a $10 headlight that was almost identical to the $99 headlight (piece if I didn't mention it before). The only thing I noticed is that the ballast might flicker a bit when you first turn on these outrageously bright headlights.

Pros
  • Automotive
