looks real enough, the guy has lots of positive feedback read some of the comments some of the negatives are mostly about shipping time and packaging and installation issues which are explained within the listing, I would suggest you read all of the ad and ask questions before ordering and make sure you order what YOU need, there are obviously lots of variations, check double check then order.

[1991_Vn2nV]

So looking at the negative feedback its poor quality, the lights flicker. Many have had defective ballasts, burnt out globes, second hand condition kits. Some have only lasted 1 day, others 2 weeks. The seller seems to have poor communication and getting a refund or replacement doesn't look like a pleasant process. Plenty of people taking paypal claims and some even going to police.

I think what you have done is not really fair listing only the negatives with no seller responses and out of 3100 odd sales there are only 80 odd neutrals and negatives and half of them appear FALSE and or MISLEADING there seems to be alot of ignorant ebay haters out there, you just can't please everyone. one seller response

"our defect rate is less than 1% when installed properly"

read listings and feedback carefully and always read instructions even if you THINK you know how it is done.

[BANKS]

You get what you pay for

Yeah but there are common themes there. Positive ebay feedback is worthless as few give helpful information. People are chasing feedback for themselves also. How many people have had issues since giving original positive feedback as well?

[666vt]

yeah i think ill give them a miss!

all valid points, in no way am I trying to sell this guys items, I just think fairness is in order, I have made several purchases on ebay and have had one problem item not as described I left a negative and recieved a negative feedback for my troubles, now a buyer can only recieve a positive feedback or NO feedback.

You want HID's? Gerald at gadgetmaster is your man.

Hid's flickering can be the balast not getting enough power. It's best to wire them up straight to the battery and use the factory wires as the trigger.

Yeah fair enough. Its a matter of opinion really, I personally won't buy off a seller that has negative feedback like that. But plenty of people will and the majority of those don't get burned. But knowing my luck i'd be one of those few that would

[Calaber]

I wouldn't touch this blokes stuff with a bargepole. I don't care if he does have plenty of positive feedback, the negatives are sufficient for me to stay away from his products. It's obvious they are made in China and are probably absolute crap that you couldn't buy anywhere else but on ebay because no reputable dealer would handle the stuff.

In this case, I don't even think you would be getting what you paid for.
