At what point does it become "you get what you pay for"?

Here are the ones I've got in the SVX... 'course the SVX has actual OEM projectors, I wouldn't suggest HIDs in reflector housings.

Only $65 (well $80 since I got the 55W version) and so far I haven't had any issues after about 8 months (knock on wood).

And back on topic, here's what the Defi BF gauges look like in the cups they come with:

They look pretty "finished" even without a pod IMO.

The prosorts do look cool but are terribly inacurate. I had their boost gauge that gradually read lower and lower until the sender quit working.

I have HIDs in my reflector-style headlights, and I love em. I've had them for over a year, and never had anyone flash their brights at me. Ironically, that happened 2-3 times right after I bought my car with the stock bulbs.

And apparently, I got ripped off on my HID kit. Now I'm looking at one by "raptor" on that site sperry linked for $40 for my fogs...
