I Can Get The PIAA H8 Bulbs!!!

hl0m4n · 10-09-2007, 08:46 PM

I can get the PIAA H8 bulbs from Japan through a friend. The direct link to the product is here: http://www.piaa.co.jp/bulb/bulb_01/bulb15_01.html

They are 12V 35W H8 bulbs producing 70W at 4150k. I was going to just get for myself but if i can share the joy why not. Pricing is listed below. If you are interested in a set do let me know. I guess i can wait a bit to see who else wants these bulbs before i make my order.

*Note: Conversions done here: http://www.xe.com/
*Note 2: Friend will be shipping all bulbs to me which then I will ship out to fellow buyers using USPS flat rate priority mail (3-4 days) w/ delivery confirmation costing about $12.
*Note 3: These H8 bulbs fit for both fogs and headlights. So if you want matching fogs, you would need x4 bulbs two for headlights and two for fogs.
*Note 4: Buyer needs to pay paypal % which i believe is .03%. If i am wrong please do correct.

2 H8 Bulbs= 9,800JPY (4,900 each)
EMS (Shipping 4-5 Days)= 1,680JPY
Total: 11,480JPY ($98US)

4 H8 Bulbs= 19,600JPY (4,900 each)
EMS (Shipping 4-5 Days)= 2,600JPY
Total: 22,200JPY ($190US)

Matching 2 H3 55W 4150K Bulbs: 10,200JPY (5,100 each)
EMS (Shipping 4-5 Days)= 1,680JPY
Total: 11,880JPY ($101 US)

i can see where the "x" is confusing so i fixed that.

hl0m4n · 10-10-2007, 08:58 AM

i have not heard PIAA melting anything. i don't have pictures b/c noone here has these bulbs as you can only get them from japan.

i made this post so instead of me just ordering for myself, if anyone else wanted i can get all at the same time. so i will leave this open till this sat if anyone wants a set.

MOTO69JOE · 10-10-2007, 11:31 AM
