Hey guys i have plans to attend at the tail of the dragon and i install H.I.D headlights along with othere things on the side and wanted to know if any one would be interested in me bringin a few of my kits with me, I have about 10 kits the crossfire takes 3 kits, 2 for the hi and low and 1 for the fogs, most places charge around 150+ but i will be able to install at only 80 dollers per kit or 225 for the whole car which is the price for 1 kit at some places. Just seeing if you guys might be interested.the install want take more than an hour

 

I'll take at least one for fog lights, thanks

 

What brand, and what color? Thanks

 

If only I had fog lights. I have low beam's and don't use the high's because of them.

 

I don't see you on the list of attending Crossfire owners ??
Do you want to be listed as attending ??

If so I need to know your home town and state, year color and model of your Crossfire and the nights you intend to stay at the Fontana Lodge.

Hey guys, I am going for friday and sat, the kits are made by xantec and colors are all 5k unless some one request otherewise, By the way my Car is a 2005 white coupe limited. Home town as stated wilson nc. The price for the hid kits should stay at 80 bucks unless are cars throw a light out warning light when installed ill be doing my own crossfire in a week or two to work out any kinks and find the best way to install them. I have done over 50 kits but non on a crossfire but like i said ill have all 3 kits installed on my own come time for tail of the dragon

 

99.9% sure you will get the "light out" on the dash, except 'base' models.

Anyone know if the SE red convertibles have this feature?

James

 

hehehe... have fun, especially if you ever do an SRT-6

 

A better idea would be to go with a apexicon hid kit which cost a little more but carrys a lifetime warranty and an light out error fix. even with this type of kit i can sale them installed for 110. if any one wants a certain color temp othere than 5k let me know i got 3k-12k 3k being yellow and 12k being purple

 

@James, the SE coupe has the same lack of light out indicator the base has, if I remember correctly.

@ hunt - I am not trying to step on toes, but don't you think the rates are a little high?

 

I Actully think its pretty cheap 110 for the kit and the harness so the car want throw a light out, maybe its cheaper in your location but just a basic hid kit with no extra hardware is 150-200 in my area with the extra harness it would most likey go up to 200-250. if it were not for the extra hardware i would be able to do 80 but not only would it most likey throw the light out, but could turn the hids off.

 

I am not sure where you are sourcing your kits, but I have purchased several of the Xantec kits for $40 on ebay, and if you are buying bulk, you should get a better deal, the resistor to ensure no light out is cheap as well. That is a pretty healthy margain.

I have personally installed 6 kits on other members cars and never charged a dime, as have others that came before me. I am not trying to say the pricing is ridiculous, but seeing as how you have never done this on the XF, I hope you do not loose any of the metal clips in the headlight housing, need help seating a bulb or adjusting them after install....

I will stop bothering your thread, and if anyone needs help installing anything at the Dragon that I am competent to help with, all I ask in return is a drink (or two ).

Not trying to bust your ***** here, Hunt, but this community is pretty tight knit and try to help each other out when we can. I look forward to meeting you at the Dragon and hopefully we can grab a beer....

 

Better make that 6 pack, the little guy can put them away !!!!!

 

Philistine!

I did them for a beer and a smile.

 

And some broken tools LOL

 

Yeah, but YOU bent it! Make sure everyone is clear on that!!!

 

Max, I was going to share that....but decided to wait and let you do the honors. Our new friend is not quite a friend......yet!! We will get him up to speed shortly.

 

YUP...Max did mine at the Dragon last year for only a cold beer and a burger !!!! And my 5K kit was only $42

Good times to be had by all!

Maybe the 2011 Spring Dragon? See y'all!
