Default Gauging Interest Group Buy: C4 HID Conversion Kit

Hey guys

We are seeing what sort of interest is out there for a C4 HID conversion kit. The proposed kit will include NEW diamond cut replacement lenses and a complete HID kit all backed by Corvette Mods lifetime warranty.

We estimate that the kit would go for $199 shipped for a Group Buy promo.

If there is any interest, please post up. If we can get 5 pre orders I will activate the deal.

These things will rock. We are the leaders in HID/LED lighting for C5/C6 owners so we are looking to share the love!

Please note, that the install we provide will not be C4 specific as it is a new kit. We will offer a gift card for a well written installation guide with pictures to someone who buys the kit.

Post up!

If these are the Blue Tint lights, then NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I absolutely hate the blue lights coming at me at night.

Otherwise, might be interested.

Would the new lenses eliminate the glare for oncoming drivers and put the light where it needs to be on the road? Having a lot of light available is no good if it is not properly directed where it needs to be.

How does this kit compare to others on the market that are priced less but look similar?

Thanks

HID's in reflectors will glare to an extent, just depends on how good the pattern of the lens is.
