Although covered ng warranty kaso weird na ang bilis masira. [emoji849]

Angel eyes and demon eyes quality depends on the manufacturer lalo na mga walang budget sa R&D. But, like any other mechanical or electrical parts makakatsamba ka talaga isang parts kahit sa mga reputable brands, pero the risk goes higher sa mga never heard cheapo brands.
My led angel eyes sa previous car ko never nagka problema. 3yrs from the time it was installed then I sold the car, after mga 2yrs pa pumalya sa new owner ng car ko ang angel eyes so that's about 5 years total. Sa current vehicle ko the only reason na di ko ininstall ang demon eyes on my DIY retrofit is bawal and medyo nag step-up ang hulihan.

Di rin ako nagpalagay ng angel eyes kasi bubutasan yun shroud. Pag nasira, at gustong tanggalin, kita yun butas.

Last angel eye i put was in 2009. What they did was 3M tape it to the shroud. Nun nasira last month, pinatanggal ko na. Clean yun tanggal ng 3M tape. Parang walang kinabit.

Yung white ring lang sir pinakabit ko para hindi maiinit sa mata ng LTO.

Anyway naayos na ulit this morning, pinalitan ung ignition igniter tapos nilipat ng pwesto. Possible daw na nabasa ng tubig kaya nasira. Sabi ni Pao 5 to 7 years nga daw tumataggal. Sana nga.

Saw this in Lazada, impressive output and cut-offs (if true) for small hids with built in mini projectors.
Perfect for reflector headlights .

I've tried one of those mini projectors dati. For a short moment, okay siya for me. Pero i still wanted more so I sold it after a day. And nung when I was installing the mini projectors, nagshoot siya sa loob nung headlight. Haha.

Matindi ang mini projector na yan dahil pati high beam may step hehehe. At 6000kelvin it will be useless on adverse weather condition, but then it also mentioned 4300kelvin so I dont know which is which

If it really produces 55watts, well goodluck with the chrome coatings ng reflector bowl ng projector. But for the price, you can buy 4 sets of it and replace it whenever necessary hehehe.

May choice yata if you want the default 6000K or order the 4300K.
May advertise na 4300K pero for right hand drive setting.

Gulat din ako sa cut-offs at intensity, talo pa yung hid ng montero ko for a small bulb and 1.5 inch projector.
May 70 watts din, yun 55watts I picked it kasi same wattage ng stock bulb, baka dina kailangan ng canceller.

Mura nga, at kung totoo yung picture ng cut-offs , sulit.

55w halogen ay magkaiba sa 55w HID. Actually there is no 55w HID bulbs that I know from reputable brands. 25w mostly for OEM and 35watts for aftermarket. 55watts HID system ay galing sa ballast and not actually rating of the bulb. Kaya nag tataka ako sa ad na yan na 55w HID daw pero di nag mention ng ballast. That is also the reason Why I mentioned, goodluck sa chrome coating dahil the common aftermarket 35w HID bulb pag ginamitan ng 55w ballast will go into overdrive hence mas malakas, it will also shorten the lifespan of the bulb. At the same time overdrive din ang emission ng UV from the bulb which will damage the chrome coating overtime. UV quantity goes higher sa mga unknown bulb brands na walang R&D.

Oo nga ano, walang mention ng ballast, and its not even shown sa mga pics.
Except for 1 short feedback, wala nang ibang info sa reliability ng product na ito.
For the price and ads, nakaka tempt itry

Eto yung sa 4300K nila, I asked.
