Default Phillips 6000k HIDs : Found a website with them For CHEAP! Good Quality?

I am buying the Phillips 6000K HIDs for my car and ran across these two websites below. I am curious if anyone knows if this is the same bulb or not, becuase it's sooo much cheaper on one site than the other.

:Website for $350/set:
HID Online

:Website for $280/set:
Cheaper website


PLEASE! Someone help me as to knowing if the ones on the cheaper website are the same quality as those on HID-ONLINE. I want to make sure I get the best quality

Thanks!!

Those prices seem way off for real Philips Ultinon kits.

Out of those two. . I hear that HID-ONLINE is the best place to go as far as quality goes. . . so I figured that their price shows that statement being true. Although, they could just be high priced :-)

Who out there bought 6000K HIDS - where did you get them - are you satisifed with the quality?

I got my 6000K HID D2S Bulbs (I know Z need D2R, but they are basically same bulbs- just need a very little fabrication) back in Korea when I went there over winter. It was $150 for a set, and I am pretty much satisfied with them.
For Philips, if you go Ebay, you can find them for $250+$20 for shipping, total at $270. But it isn't that cheaper from the website you have tho.

Here is my 6000K STEAL HID Bulb (That was the brand name)
It looks a bit more bluish compare to other 6000K (normally white)
due to blue LED parking light ordered from ares.

Thanks Seanrulez for your pics!

I too just got a set of LED Parking lights (white) from Ares. I want to stick with D2R - and I was going to buy them off of the website that had them for a cheaper price. . . but I just am curious if they are the same ones that are on HID-ONLINE becuase I want to make sure I have very good quality bulbs, and I don't mind paying the extra money if the quality is much better.

I hope someone can let me know what they know / think about the difference between the two websites!

I noticed that E-bay has a few :Phillips 6000k D2R Bulbs: but they are from Germany. . . .

Does anyone know if there is a difference from Germany Phillips bulbs and those in the United States?

If they are real Philips bulb, then they should only be manufactured in Germany.
