Sure do - H4 HID low only kit - $399. H4 HID lo/quartz hi beam -$439; install takes all of 30 minutes! Either kit includes free shipping within the lower 48 states. Let me know and I can send you a Paypal request for payment and get the kit out tomorrow or you can send a check. Thanks.

what is the difference between the two?

First one is low beam only, the other is low beam and hi beam, although the high is quartz - some states require hi and lo beams for inspections.

is there a significant increase in the brightness? do you think it is worth it in terms of cost/performence ratio? i havent seen/heard anything on this upgrade so im kinda clueless on how good it is. also, im trusting that you wont say yes just to make a sale;Db; ;Db; ;Db; lol
thanks for your patience!

Brightness is the same just one has an extra bulb so you can flash lo/hi but of course quartz will never be as bright (quartz ~700 lumens, HIDs 3200 lumens) I've only sold hi/lo kits and have the same installed in my VX and my GF's VX. If your state does not require hi and lo for inspection, save the $$ and you can always put the stock lamps back in @ inspection day.

well, over here in washington, we dont have inspection day!;Db;

so... you are saying that the high beam will be less powerful than the low beam?
also, what lumens are the stock lamps?
thanks again!

Stock bulbs are ~700 lumens- there is also a harness available that will allow hi and lo on together otherwise hi will be dimmer than low unless you hold the stalk part way and then you can get both lamps on. I have seen a new HID kit with 2 HID lamps but it is way expensive ~$600
