Warranty

Heres the reply I received when I asked about the Warranty for eliteEV HID bulbs


Dear customer.

Due to the sensitivity of the light bulb, we provide a 30 days DOA warranty. As for the ballast, we provide 6 months defective warranty.

That warranty is way below standard industry min. of at least a year? The lights do look good but that warranty isnt very good at all IMO.

The price Andy charges is way competitive. You can look online and find some for $150. Not to mention the waranty provided more than sealed the deal for me. got them quick and they lok fantastic. HPA is the way to go!

Did you put them in the same day you got them? Post some pics when you get a chance.

I did install only to find I had a bad ballast. I put my OEM's back in and I get the car back tomorrow. Once. Out them back in I'll post some pics. Needless to say, I was bummed that I couldn't snap some that night. By the one that worked looked gnarly

UPDATE....

I talked to EliteEV regarding shipping prices... They are looking into it and I expect it to be reduced within a few days.

In addition, for forum members they are upgrading the warranty to 6 months on the bulbs. To receive this, please note you are a member here and want the extended warranty for 6 months. This will be noted on your account.

If you have already purchased, just send them an email and I'm sure they will be happy to notate that on your account.

Blackjack,

Amazing write up on the HID bulb conversions. Just want to confirm that you need the D2S for the projector housing right?

Thanks

You are right.
D2S for our g37 projectors
D2R for reflective housings
D2C is made for both.
