XENON lamps for an FB

ok found this via an earlier thread:

LIGHTs

they are listed at 24.69 USD before shipping

i have jsu theard back and they want 46 USD.

given the exchange and then the addition of gst and maybe duty at teh border.. im wondering if anyone knows of a canadian source for this item?

cheers and thanks

i bought the same thing off ebay. You can however get a set from canadian tire for the same price, about $100CAN. I am more happy with my ones imprted. There will be about 14$CAN customs and you can get them for about $50US.

They don't have the same glass look, it just looks like a regular bulb when the light is off, but a Autozone had some HID lights for my RX-7...I was ordering some of those lights and during check out saw shipping was $17, so I decided not to.

You just buy them, take them out of the box, and plug them in.
