Hid lights Interest

Well guys I have been online looking for deals on some morimoto hids and came across ever other forum but the Benz forums for a group buy of some sort? So I'm posting this to see if there is interest. Then I will contact azn optics (mike) to see if he can do something before asking trs theretrofitsource? Then ask the moderators and so on. But for most group buys its at least 10-15 people just to get a deal but the more we get usually the better deal. If no interest I will just jump on another group buy or just buy them. Just thought I would see if there was interest before doing so cause I know there are a lot of us using them already.

All direct distributors for Morimoto HID kits are contractually set for $150 advertised price to discourage a price war between the distributors. I can talk to my contact to see if I can get an exception for a group buy effort though if you wish, but would have to probably be a minimum of 10 kits for them to do so.

Yes, we can get XB35, but from our testing, the difference is really negligible compared to the 3five at a higher price range.
