Anyone have luck with the hid fogs from ebay?

My hid fogs are complete junk, they never really worked that well and one side has stopped working altogether.

There are a bunch of kits on ebay for $60-100.... anyone used these?

Or point me in the right direction on where to get some at.

I dont want to spend more than $100.

As they say, you will always get what you pay for. Chip in another $100 & you will get a decent set with warranty from umnitza.

I agree, but i paid $170 for the last ones from bavtoys.com and they sucked, I'm pretty sure bavtoys is related to umnitza

Other members have had trouble with umnitza also.

Based on the last 4 sets I bought from ebay under $100, I'd say I'm right. I haven't tried that seller from your link & might work. I'd say "good find."

and the EBAY is not the bad store, dont get it mix up with other BRAND NAME store.most memebers here think that stuff on ebay is cheap, but it not depend on wath you buy and who you buy it from.

example if the umnitza sell they stuff on EBAY then ppl. think that is cheap stuff too?

don't get me wrong. I am with u on this one buddy. I do ebay too. I was simply referring to the cheap ones on ebay that sucks since krunkman didnt even specify the vendor. I have bought at least 100 items on ebay myself. But since he is having problems with them, I was under the impression he got those not so good ones so we are cool man!
