  1. just ordered mine, great discount as well. Are these slim ballast? and I have an 08 ford edge and I ordered h11's did I get the right size?

     

     

    Vanilla,

     

    What's your name? I have three orders that came in just about the time you posted this..

     

    The Edge does take H11. Yes, you ordered the slim.

     

    Let me know what your name is so I can ship these out to you tomorrow.

  2. its on regular radio stations......i didnt know there was a difference in HID ballast...ie: digital, analog

     

     

    Yes; all ballasts have some electrical interference. The key is how well the manufacturer ensures that these electrical interferences don't "leak out". This is done through efficient electrical parts and proper grounding.

     

    I have HIDS in both low beam and fogs and I don't have any issues whatsoever. No static, flickering.. nothing. I know for a fact my ballasts are digital and made in 2008.

  3. Going off the title of this thread...I have a different HID Problem:

     

    My radio reception goes to sh!t when I have my HID's on.......when I turn them off, the reception comes back to normal.

     

    Any ideas on how to fix it or whats causing this???

     

    thanks

     

    Is it Satellite, HD or Regular radio stations?

     

    Analog kits cause static. I'm about 80% sure that is the problem. How old are your HIDS?

  4. This is true.

     

    However, the LX570's, Escalades, etc are not that bright.

     

    Nice truck. It'll last forever. :yup:

     

    You speak the truth sir!

     

    However, I can put money down that I have more usable light than the Escalade AND paid atleast $ 1,000 dollars less. :happy feet:

     

    The truck is great. Toyota did a good job. I still have my F-150 though... :rockon:

  5. Dam straight... Good to have another 3ID brother on the forums! Welcome home, brother!

     

    About the vehicle.. I have no clue.. But when you do decide, I have your hook up on HIDS. I'll take care of you.

     

    God Speed and again, Welcome back!

  6. anonymity - something that is hard to get anymore. those "hundreds of people" do not know you, but the moment they can tie you to a post on the web, they know more. also, if you posted a plate, people could track that back to you and know more about you like "hey, there is that chick I always see posting on the Ford board" - and who wants that? you are an online reseller, so less of a reason to think twice about it, but heck, for that matter, why do 99% of all of us use bogus pseudo names and such? anonymity, simply anonymity.

     

     

    duh.. why didn't I think of that... lol

     

    Thanks brother. :yup:

    and

     

    We are offering a LIFETIME WARRANTY on ALL kits purchased through this promotion! Discount will apply DURING checkout using the code " DEC2008 " Code will expire after 200 uses!

  8. Vortec,

     

    Where did you get your kit? Can you take a pic of the actual ballast for me? Digital is the way to go.. there are several reasons why your HIDs might be malfunctioning. Lex is correct.. Digital kits are really what you should be using.

     

    It'll be great if you can take pics of your entire HID setup so we can see if there are any obvious faults in your system.. We are here to help!

     

    Let us know!

  9. As far as I know these are the correct part # for 2007 , 2008 and 2009 EDGE and MKX

    Use this list at your own risk , double check the part # and application if using the numbers here.

    This list may cut down some searching for some people . I plan to keep adding to this on my own system,

    when I compile a list of performance parts as more become available .

     

     

    GREAT initiative! This is very useful! Thanks!

  10. For those who have installed HID fogs, what did you use as mounting points for the ballasts?

     

    Prinz,

     

    Here is one of my setups (Driver side). The top most is my headlight ballast and the one further down is the foglight ballast. The foglight ballast is bolted into the edge using an existing hole within the edge's frame and supplied nut and bolt from the HID kit.

     

    The other side, (Passenger Side), is too hard to get a picture of without removing the wheel well liner. But it is also bolted to the frame in a similar manner.

  11. Thank you i did get your pm but i couldnt read it for some reason. This answered my questions. I'm considering the 8000k's though cuz I like the look.

    Once I'm sure, I will be making the order through you. Let me ask you something... do you have the 3000k hid h11? I'm interested on those for the fogs.... and either 6000 or 8000k h11's for the low beam. Not sure yet.

    As far as the drl's... any issues with that? The low beam acts as the drl's as well.

     

    Thank you for the reply though:)

     

     

    Smack:

     

    Yes, I do have 3000k in H11 on my site! I just filled an order for an H11 in 3000k a couple days ago. 8000k is a great color. I personally think my edge looks great in 8000k. I tried the 6000k, but it wasn't doing it for me. Don't get me wrong, the light output is awesome.. But the 8000k color blew me away.

     

    My Edge doesn't have any problems with the DRL's. I have no flickering whatsoever.

     

    Thanks!
