Yes, That is the price for the Piaa Bulbs. MSRP is actually more then that (84.95). These are very good quality bulbs, super white light, and great road coverage.

Thanks
Dan

Not to dis you or anything Dan, but PIAA are really expensive for what you get. Yeah you are paying for the quality, but if people are looking for just something to match their xenons, then there are cheaper options out there. I think I am using Phillips BlueVision bulbs. They cost me like $20-30 and look awesome next to the xenons. Perhaps you should offer something like that for the people who don't want to pay that much for a light bulb...

I had bought some of those 20-30 dollars bulbs my self a while back, and had them die on me in 4 months, just to have the Mfg not stand up to the warrentee. I'm not saying this will happen to you, but I want to use a bulb that will stand up to use, as well and have the MFG stand Behind it. PIAA is a very reputable company, and will stand behind there products. This is why I am offering these bulbs. Thanks for you responce and feed back.

I too had experienced limited lifetime of the cheaper bulbs. I use to keep the original bulbs in the car in case they blew. It got to the point where I could change the bulb in the dark (when else?) in about 3 minutes. PIAAs are more expensive but only if you're replacing them more frequently than annually.

What I want know is:
1. If I wanted to do a 3 light set-up, emulating the original Italian Job configuration, could a third bracket be added to the center?
2. Can the brackets be mounted anywhere along the grill?
3. Must they be mounted in the bottom slot or can they be mounted higher?
4. Would I be able to purchase a third light since you offer only the kit and the bracket?
5. Do they work with the Aero grill?
6. Is the PIAA on the face of the lens removable?

Thanks.

Dan.........Glad to see you're carrying PIAA. I know some of the MINI bulbs are hard to find ie: H-11.

Dammit, I paid $85.00 + 6% tax a month ago. I should have waited a bit
