Good to hear. I recieved word today that all the orders will be processed within 1-2 days and shipping time will be 4-5 business days after they are processed.

P.S. Looks like I will be having true HIDs for my fog lights. I was so happy with the GB and then my bro decides that if I take his HIDs off I can have them. Just gotta buy 1 new bulb. lolol oh well.

Sweet, thanks!

I just ordered the Xenomatch H11 fogs, h7 highs, and 7507 silver "yolk" turn signal replacement bulbs.

The total came to $94, but only $55 shipped after the discount! Sick!

It's not too late! Do it now!

we all need to post some pics after install.

Let me know what you guys think about the h11's. Post pics!! I was looking at them again last night and I have to say that there almost an exact match! Xenon's are 4300k and the H11's are 4200k, as close as you can get IMO. Love mine!

UPDATE: This Group Buy is over. I recieved confirmation from Vision Bulbs today that some of the orders have already been shipped. The rest will be shipped out tomorrow. The Xeno-Math bulbs are being shipped from their warehouse in the US and are likely to get to you quicker. The Xenon Interior and Silver-Extreme bulbs are being shipped from their warehouse in Canada so are likely to take a little longer to ship.

Trip, I installed my HIDs today. I used OEM Honda/Acura D2S Xenons, but will be replacing them with Phillips OEM 4300k D2R Xenons soon. At first they dont match all that well, their slightly purple, but once warmed up, PERFECT MATCH. hehe.. I may have some Vision Bulb H11's for sale once they get here if I can't find another use for them. So for any of you who missed out on the GB keep a look out.

02 pics would be nice. Its the same with the xeno-match. The OEM xenon's need to warm up 1st but once its in full bloom they look awesome with the fogs.

I am now in the process of looking for led 39mm festoon bulbs for the license plate bulbs. I figure might aswell go all the way w/ the xenon's. Might even change my interior bulbs too...hehehe...it will never end. Any suggestions?

For the SuperWhite look on the interior bulbs I think the best way to go is LEDs.. I will be replacing my Blue Interior LEDs with White ones soon.

As for pics, I took some when there was still light out, i'll upload them and see which ones are worth posting. I rigged the light on there though as its a D2S.. it was supposed to be temporary for the weekend till I made the housing work, but one of the bulbs came loose and is melting the foglight housing. So no more HIDs for now, I gotta dremel out the fog light housing to allow the HID bulb perfect fitment. Oh well, looked good while they lasted lol..

I got busy this week..

and just did the order yesterday. Seemed to still work fine.

And is your car lowered a lot? That may do it, as the rear suspension thinks that the car is pointing up! There's a little plastic thiggy connected to the position sensor in the back of the car. If you start to lift the car with a jack, or take off that thinggy and move it by hand, you should be able to make the headlight aimers actuate. If they do, then it's most likely that your car is lowered, or if it's not , is something bent?

Anyway, I'd start there to make sure the headlight assemblies work.

Matt

Well, I think we should start seeing deliveries being made starting tomorrow. Hopefully I can get the problems sorted out with my HIDs and we can compare pics soon. I need to order some new bulbs, anyone know exactly which ones the factory Xenons use on the 02-04 cars? I'm guessing Philips OEM 4300K? If anyone knows for sure it'd help me out a lot so that I can order the same bulbs for my Fog Lights.

Be sure to post pics of your Xenon-Match bulbs! I'll put them on and snap a pic or two when I get them as well. I'll even have Xenon-Match on one side and HID on the other side for a really good comparison shot.

I'm pretty sure they are 4300k D2R's. I guess I'll find out when my HID bulbs come in.

Thanks for setting this up! I just picked up my fogs and high beams! Can't beat 50% off!

Hey, I haven't even looked under the bonnet yet, but does anyone have or know where to find an easy to follow instructions to remove the high beam bulb from the xeon mount? And, I'm assuming you get to the fogs from under the car right?

I got my silver star bulbs today. They came out of Ontario Canada. About 2 minutes to put both in. Great look, now hopefully the fogs will come tomorrow.
