I got my 4300 HIDs from HID Outlet through Amazon.com for $75.99 no tax and free shipping. They arrived promptly. Installation instructions were hilarious, obviously a foreign language translated by a computer or a 12 year old. But, everything fits, the lights work and I am very pleased with the lights and the price. Mounting the ballast was a little tricky because you only have about a 12 inch radius from the headlight. I bent the ballast brackets down 90* and screwed them to the transverse crossmember just forward and a little inboard of the headlights. The brackets are only screwed down on one end, so they might act as shock dampers because they are so free to move. I am 64 years old, and I need the extra illumination these bulbs provide. I am amazed at the visibility, and I haven't had anybody flash their high beams at me. The inventor of the self-drilling self-tapping screw should get at least a Nobel Prize.
