When the group buy is ready, lets us know how to do the purchase.

Would it be done by phone or website and what info we need to specify...

mdfdwarrior:

With the lifetime warranty on the ballast and ignitor, it's a great deal!

Would splicing the wire harness in this kit void the warranty?

It would be direct order off a webpage John created specially for our group buy.  I should be able to provide the link very soon, just need to verify with John first.  All the info you need is within this thread and his product info on the webpage.   The warranty is for the ballast and ignitor and bulb so the warranty should stay in tact...

the sooner the better....i'm ready to pull the trigger on this.

OK folks, here is the link to order the HID kits for our group buy.  This will only be active for about 2 weeks starting from today.

I talked to John, and the pricing changed a little bit.  Actually as an extra bonus our pricing for the 35W bi-xenon kit went down about $5!  Since this GB is for ANY HID kit they have, some of the car pricing went up and some went down.  Overall, not by much perhaps about $5 or so.  I would buy one for my car but they already have HID.  I might pick up an extra kit just as a spare or for my future bike...anyone know what type of bulb the BKing uses?...

Without further ado, here is the link.  All the best!

Got my kit yesterday afternoon and did a really trick install!

Overall, I really like the kit.  You need to deal with the limited length of wiring, but all the kits I've seen have the same issues.  Overall the compenents feel more solid and seem better made than the Genuine Auto kit that I had.  With the lifetime warranty on the ballast and ignitor, it's a great deal!

So, Im dumb. I cant figure out your spreadsheet. How much is it for the kit you purchased MDF? Did you go with the 35w or the 55w?

RobR - I went with the 35W bixenon HI/LO H4 at 5000K.  I just came back from a late night cruise.  It is extremely bright and I am very happy with the kit!  I can only imagine how much brighter the 50W kits are in real life!  They are said to be about 30% brighter than the 35W kits.  I may end up buying another kit and trying out the 50W system on another vehicle...

The GB price is $90 shipped to your door anywhere in U.S.  The spreadsheet is difficult to read.  If you go to the ordering link I posted, the kits will be there with the group buy price already configured for us.

Thom,

Sharp install, I'm excited.  Which hi/lo bulb type do I get if I currently have a stock set up, 9003/H4,H13,9004 or 9007?  I'm ready to pull the trigger on this.

Thanks for setting all this up for us.

Hi Chuck,

De nada!  the correct bulb for our Warriors is the 9003/H4 HI/LO.

I had a few questions, and John (w/ SharpHID) was really johnny on the spot w/ answers...so, i just placed my order...I got the 9003/H4 hi/lo (not the bi-xenon's) for 105 coming my way...I'll post back my install.

Thanks for putting this together mdfd!

I emailed them for a quote for shipping and they have not answered my email yet.

Puerto Rico is considered Domestic for USPS zip code 00961 but I need a quote if any shipping charges apply and instructions on how to order...

hmmm....

if you don't get an email reply, just call Joihn Sharp on the phone.  He has always answered/returned my calls.  Let him know you are part of this GB.

Good Luck!

John called me today and made arrangements and I was able to place the order online

good to hear - keep us updated!

I'm not even sure who all participated?  If you went in on this GB, let us know. 

Last I talked to John, he was planning on running it til the end of August but I see the ordering page is still up so if you want in I'd do it asap before the page is disabled...

Ordered mine a couple of days ago and got an invoice with tracking number today.  I should receive the part soon.
