Ordered from GMR about 3 1/2 years ago for some 6000K Headlights and Fogs and though two sets of ballasts burned out, I did like the actual tint of light emitted from these HID's as apposed to some cheap HID's that I purchased from ebay. I like the uniformity of both being the same hue but also noticed that the fogs were not as strong as I thought, possibly because the headlight projectors were so efficient. I do have to say, at least in my case, that the GMR HID's were shipped rather quickly. If I couldn't find a quality 5000-6000K set up with a decent warranty from anywhere else, Id probably go with GMR again.

Glad to see someone was happy with their GMRoadster purchase. Looks like its 1 out of 10.....

I actually already ordered both Low Beams and Fog Lights (5000K) from GMR. Ordered them on Thursday and got a notification that they were shipped on Friday morning. They should be on my hands Tuesday or Wednesday (I hope).

If they get in early enough Wednesday I will install them then and see what I think and will report back here!!!

Regards,

BA...

Just a quick update!

I contacted Martin at GMR asking if there was a tracking number for my package and he informed me that since it was sent via USPS regular mail there was no way to track it.

He also told me the package was actually dropped off on Saturday morning at the Post Office and not actually shipped on Friday as I believed.

Knowing this my hopes of getting them by yesterday (my day off) dissipated so now I'm hoping they will be here by Saturday at the latest so I can install them on Sunday...

I will keep this thread informed!!!

Regards,

BA...

I'm very sure that the general public will not get a response as you did SKY Spy (Super Moderator).
What you got in 1 week it took me 3 months....
Ether you know this person Martin or GMRoadster is monitoring this thread....

just to make something clear, I'm in no way associated or "in bed" with GMR at all! Just another customer!

With that said, you might be right or they have changed their ways and got tired of the bad reviews...

All I can say is how this specific transaction has gone and nothing else...

Still have to go home and "inspect" the package and see if everything is there like it should...

Regards,

BA...
