Anyone upgraded to BiX's?

Has anyone here upgraded to the Bix's and gotten them from Steve at MBNL? If so how did you pay for them if they dont take paypal or checks etc...wire transfer? my problem is that i cant do a wire transfer because i am in Iraq...and not physically at a branch. so how can i pay them?

Credit card? Debit card? Have someone back stateside pay and then you reimburse them through payapl? If you have online banking through your home station, alot of times they will work with you as well. Lots of options...

they dont take cc's. i got online with regions (a pain in the a** anyway) and set up a billpay so hopefully the funds will get to them. we shall see though. can you recommend a better bulb then whats going to come with them...4200k i believe...i wanted a bluish light output.

I am by no means an expert on HID bulbs, but I have the 8k bulbs and like them. They are very blue. If you want a good happy-medium, go with something in the 6k range. 4200k will still give a little bit of blue "ice white" look though.
There are a few guys on here and in the SRT forums that know all about the different spectrums and could blow your mind with technical info. if you need/want more.haha

Yeah, i talked to Wanda and i told her that i set up a billpay online at regions...hopefully the money will get to her account. They said its hard for them to come to florida now...dont know why, it would be great if we could get them down there for installs and stuff. Iraq is very difficult, as it is to try to pay for stuff and get stuff lined up to go into the car. I am managing though...hope to be home soon for leave.
