They run an eBay store also and that is where I picked up a set of 55 watt 9006 HIDs for my truck (equipped with projectors). I first learned about this provider on a GM truck forum and folks spoke highly of them.
Mine shipped directly from China by DHL and they arrived in only a few days. I was surprised by the quality. Usually we associate the words danger and junk with China made products but not the case with these HIDs, at least the pair I ordered.
The wiring appears to be silicon and the connectors are all weather tight, the installation instructions were a bit sketchy but I have installed HIDs before.
On a side note:
I have read various forums where a HID vendor says that the difference between 35 and 55 watt HIDs isn’t much. I think they say this because they do not have 55 watts HIDs to sell. Let me tell you, there is a significant difference and the 55 watt system is well worth the few extra dollars. Just ask my 58 year old eyes that have to look at miles of wet dark dirt roads early in the morning driving to work.
I do not recommend running HIDs in a non-projector headlamp. You will blind oncoming traffic.
