any one install the v3 hid kit from carlab? if so can you post pics or pm me ....on how to install i have the directions but for one how do i get the pin off the factory bulb that is in the headlights and where do i run the extra wiring harness that they give you to bypass the computer error message any pics or info would be great....

 

hmm i will get set of V3 HID as my fog light soon from Darwin

 

i wonder if it's any brighter than v2 kit?

 

just that V3 has a thinner and lighter ballest, they do less flicker compare to the V2

 

i have it

and on my friend's accord too

 

How does it compare to these kits that supply a "digital harness" to bypass issue with MB and some other cars? I was thinking of using them for my kid's SLK and they also have bixenons for H4 cars like my wife's Jeep and my motorbike.

the v3 has the kit to bypass the issues with the mb computer i just wanna know who has this kit or how di get started installing this?

 

All I can tell you is that I installed the Carlab kit and I had to get the Xenon=Present option turned on at my dealer to make them work. Personally for $119, I would try the ebay guy next, he has a high feedback rating and specifically addresses the MB issue (Carlab did also when I bought mine but it didn't work).

 

hey i will buy your old HID kit for cheap so i can install it on my mom sedan

 

I was pretty disappointed that the CarLab V2 kit has so many flicker issues. I wouldn't have bought it if I knew that it had that problem. It says that it is gone in V3, but who knows. Last time I asked about the flicker CarLab deleted the tread.

 

It's in an working thanks to the MB dealer setting the xenon=present option, no sense in taking it out.

 

Anyone tried the guy on ebay? Im about to order a set of 8000k H7s.

 

I would like to thank oauterleague (is this how you spell it?) for ALL HIS EFFORTS in helping me with my annoying questions

The MTEC kit is pretty good, I finally got it installed, and thanks a lot to Dion for his willingness to help me, but I really wanted to install it on my own

But I really like the kit, it does not have computer error message. and it looks good.

But anyway, I got the 8000K one, which is pretty blue. I like it =D, install was not hard, but ANNOYING... finding places to mount the ballast.

Here are 2 pics

And that concludes my first mod on the 2007 C280

 

lol first mod ever in your life??

btw how much??

 

not first mod in my entire life, but just first mod on a merc, I was a ricer, but only did like bolt on tips and crap like that. And spoilers.

360 USD

 

i am thinking of getting a 2nd gen MR2, Supra non turbo, or 98' Eclipse as my rice car

but Supra is my dream favorite

 

haha, I guess so, I used to have a yr 2000 S40 - I riced a volvo... yes it was lame, but o well... haha

 

Never a problem! and its OUTA UR LEAGUE - You still my dude tho ! Looks good btw. Where did you end up mounting the ballast ? Did you suspend them like mine ? or tuck ?

 

how do i get that pin out on the factory bulb?...

 

What pin are you talking about? There's a wire clip that holds the bulb in place, is that what you are referring too?

 

There are only 2 wires to the bulb, and they are in the plug.

 

umm, here is how I did it....

just look at the pics

 

cool i just got em in no error msg the kit is great now i have to find the matching side markers and fogs

 

my first mod in my life is the HID light =.=
