Ok here is all I can find on the bulbs.. If you can figure out on how to order them I would recommend it.. I am using the bulbs and they are great.. They are great quality and look fantastic. I think they are better quality than the factory bulbs. The contact points are gold plated and the bulbs just look sturdier.. RIGG : HID : 35W ??????????? I had to do the google translation to read any of that.. |
Here's what they wrote "We do not carry the Rigg bulbs, but our Morimoto's are very close in terms of performance, precision, etc. Virtually identical stuff here- is there a particular reason you're after the Rigg's?"

bulb connector to accommodate the bulb. I was told to slightly bend the metal prongs in with a screwdriver so they would make contact with the bulb contact point. I sent them back and he sent me the RIGG bulbs.. |
|
Anyone have luck in finding a shop that carries the Rigg 6000 bulbs? Retrofit source told me they don't sell Rigg bulbs as well.

Has anyone tried Halo brand D2S HIDs?
I bought these, but haven't installed them yet after reading about all the flickering problems people have been experiencing when installing aftermarket HIDs. Halo Automotive D2S 6,000k HID Bulb (12v/35w) |
One of mine flickered off when I started the car... but now (after about 6 months of using them) it doesn't do it anymore.
Since it quit doing it, I haven't had any issues with them. |

Any updates on how and where to get the Riggs?

Probably something cheap and unreliable. :icon17: |
USDM PIAA 6,600K (19994)
Flickered one second on very first turn on. No problems since. 2009 head lamps. |
Anyone know of another place besides retrofits to get RIGG bulbs?
|
Nope. I gave up looking for them.. ur 2010 should work with just about any brand though. The flickering issue is just for 2011 since there is a difference on the ballast

And i have to turn them on and off 2-3 times before they fire up! Sucks because i like using the auto light function! |
Riggs bulbs
Retrofit just contacted me and said:
Thanks for the inquiry. Unfortunately, we no longer sell RIGGS bulbs. If you're looking for a bulb that works well with the OEM Nissan ballast, the new Morimoto 3Five bulbs do: D2S: Morimoto 3Five (35w) - HID Bulbs from The Retrofit Source Inc So these Morimoto ones dont work aswell? Looking around for a few easily accessible bulbs that work with the OEM ballast is abit of a challenge, especially here in Australia where everything is overpriced! :mad: |
Was on the fence but now its a NO
I was looking in to going with an aftermarket bulb as well, however reading all of the problems you guys are having with these... I think I'll save my money and stick with OEM! having a Z with a lazy eye would bother the hell out of me, and the horizon issues would as well.. So OEM for me!

So after reading this entire thread I still am not sure what to go with. I want a bulb that is 5000-6000k. OEM or better in quality and none of that flip the lights on 4 times and flicker stuff. I have a 2010 so it should help I believe. I'd like to spend <$100.
|
Im using D2C 8000k and ordered it from ebay. it was 20 bucks for me. And nothing wrong with them. It doesnt flick either.
|
8000K is freaking blue as hell. How do you not get pulled over with that stuff
|
The one I have is not that blue. Just a tint of blue. I'll post some pic this week.

Looking at changing out my blubs also, has anyone tried Vision X bulbs?
|
you can get the real philips ultinon bulbs at kbcarstuff.com! i got mine there!
|
since we're talking about bulbs anyone change the indicator bulbs, specifically the rear ones? I'm not a fan of the yellow.

does it still light up as amber? It was only after switching cars with my buddy on a short trip did I realize how badly I need rear spacers and hate the amber rear turn signals.
