I got mine a few weeks ago on ebay from this guy: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/GP-Th...WDVWQQtcZphoto
He shipped fast and if you get 2 pairs you can get discounted shipping.

Yes it was straight forward. I bought 2 sets of H8 and 1 set of H3 for the corner lights. Replacing the angel eyes and the corner lights was easy, but for the fog lights I recommend checking out the DIY pictures because it's a blindfolded process when you stick your hand in there.

Thanks alot guys. I'll probably be ordering from the HID site.

Edit:

Just ordered (2) GP Thunder 7500's from ipremiertek*co on ebay..apparently the same guys as ************.com but the price was cheaper on their ebay listing.

WTF? I don't understand why the seller would have to do anything with the actual product, assuming its sealed. I hope this is not true.

And the ones I got are 7500K...I am not sure why you have that problem?? Those guys are the same guys who run the ************.com site..

Really, that is very strange. Maybe you damaged the bulb from touching it during installation?

I didn't touch it with my hands even though during the insert it touched some metal/cables briefly... I still doubt that's the reason

I have the same setup and it looks really nice. You may want to get the H3 corner lights, too.

Just got done installing them, and I must say it was a PIA..I have small hands but I was BARELY able to fit them in there. I kind of lightly scratched the silver coating at the tip, it was impossible to not scratch it while installing them, is this OK?

Sorry for the iPhone pics...I am very happy with the look though. Perfect color. The pics don't really do it justice, but it seems to me the stock bulbs are SLIGHTLY brighter.
