But since Sakebomb, and their members have been long time rotary heads and big in the community, people will probably spend a little more for a quality kit. Even you said it, you want to match their kit's quality and output with a lesser cost. They already set the benchmark. Why? Because they are not using a projector that fits the H4 slot, any joe schmoe can do that. The product is well thought out, and offers some of the best that can be offered without cutting corners.
Exactly this. I was all set to pull the plug on doing my own retrofit, and then I clicked on their GB thread for shits and giggles. I was surprised to see that they were actually going to make a full retrofit kit using the best materials available. The amount I had to pay on top of what it would have cost me to do it myself was quite worth it IMO. I am quite glad I bought them, best purchase I've made for my car to date.
