As far as shipping to Canada, I'm not sure if Harbor Freight (.com) will ship there, but they have an HID that is rumored to have the same guts as the Kragen one but a different (uglier, IMHO) enclosure. Just search for "HID" on their site.




JKrazed -- was the yellowing just the cover, or the glass lens itself? I'd like to do away with the plastic covers anyway at some point, I'm looking into making something from wire mesh...

I found those as well. Reviews on them said they were the same as the Kragen's. Did not like the looks of them at all.

Bump since I added some pics of my clip-on plastic stone guard alternative to the original post. May not be for everyone, but I think the look goes with my rig...

(bump)

Updated original post with some night/trail shots. Still very happy with the lights.

Apparently these lights are also sold under the brand HIDX from some vendors who I think can't be mentioned here, and they are also coming out with black rings instead of red at some point in the near future. Google is your friend.
