Here is another player: http://www.vvme.com/product/detail-20023.html
For $50.00 it's worth looking at, IMHO.

Mike:
I have not talked with them. I have sent them an e-mail with your questions and some of mine.
The $50.00 price is for a kit that contains enough for two headlights ( two each of: capsules, ballasts, brackets and one wire harness).

well, I dropped the hammer on a kit;
http://www.xenondepot.com/product.php?product_id=1 38
just don't feel good about the eBay options and the Digital Xtalights are just a bit too expensive.
I also ordered the relays of eBay to get a 45 second delay on start up. |

I purchased two DEI-528T on eBay;

They are much bigger than I thought they would be, but I'm sure I can stuff them somewhere...
I'm going to use this for reference;

Nick how do you like the hid lights on your bike, I still have not decided who to buy from, it can wait I have been working on the rear of the bike and when I am done then I will do the front of the bike, I bought super bright leds one set blue and is suppose to look like the blue tint of the hid lights and the other amber to go were the running lights are, I can use them as turn signals in the headlight housing or use the blue to match the hid lights so when I drive with the high beams on it will look even with all six bulbs looking the same, my bike is in the shop and have to wait to test them.

I'm still waiting for them to arrive, they may show as early as tomorrow.
I have a big day of installs coming up and will do my best to document it all. I have a Stebel horn, Osram H11s for the highs and some amber LEDs for the running lights. |

well, the HID kit arrived today...
still waiting on the amber LED wedge bulbs and an xblights.com tail light.
I'm thinking I will hold off on installing anything until I get my electrical situation stabilized. I just need a few days to ride... we are getting 6-8 inches of snow here tonight. |

Does installing a H.I.D kit void the warranty?? If not, someone from Buell said to my Hd service man today that the Kit (I have already installed) is causing some amp. battery issues that I have to pull the kit before they block my bar code or vin # (can't remember which one he said). Blown away from that call, this my third bike kit I have installed. Need some advice. |

This is what I know so far the 35 watt bulbs which are the same for HID lights on high beam all four are on and will drain the battery in traffic, this is what I was told today and can not believe I was told that because the bike on high beam has the low beams on to, now the heated grips are on a circuit that will shut down if the battery gets low, now why did they do that? I am getting hid and was told by my tech guy buell is working on a kit or upgrade or replacement for the charging system because it is weak. Mike |

my 2 cents...
pull the kit out and let them finish the troubleshooting. I have been staring at my kit sitting here on my desk for 8 days, just for that reason. This is the same as a computer manufacturer voiding your warranty for installing your own RAM. Its outrageous but they can get away with it because we are not using parts that were tested and/or engineered to be used on this bike.
I dropped my bike of at the dealer two days ago, bone stock. Let them figure out where the volts are going, then I can unleash the HID kit, the Stebel, the H11 high beams and any other goodies that we come across. |

Guys can't thank you enough, Man it was awesome driving day or night with those lights. So, the chrging sys. (stator) is too weak, almost thought about puttin' a Odyssey dry cell in there and lettin' Her ride, but I will let Buell address the issue. I will be doin my HD services (in quick intervals) on this bike during the warranty, (Hid's are not a quick on/off install) do ya think I'd be able to put them on ''legally'' in warranty?? |
