Default =) while Joao is waiting for a replacement ballast

I had been fighting with vvme as they did send me a defective ballast and I didnt feel like chipping out another 35$ in shipping to them to get another working ballast..

at this time i'd warn people from vvme and do not recommend them.

Default I can't see for **** with HID lights. Hate em.

Dunno why, but for me, HID's suck. I know I am partially colorblind, maybe that as something to do with it. Driving a car with HID lights at night is like running at full speed carrying a Bic lighter.


Anyway, I do agree, and have been looking for nice driving lights for the A4, but everything is made more for looks than performance, unless I want some really big lights.


Ricers have infiltrated and destroyed the accessory light market.

Default Stock ones are horrible, and the aftermarket ones are worse.

I don't drive home any cars from work with HID's if there is a chance of being out after dark.

Default Yeah VVME hasn't had the best customer service at all especially when shipping is always $35

but for the price of 1 HID bulb at the dealer you can buy 2 VVME HID kits.
