OK, the switch on the handlebar mount is a little less than totally polished. Still, I'll take it given that it's more than $100 cheaper than the next closest thing, and for the most part (other than I think a custom reflector on one maker's stuff) all HIDs are the same, they all use lamps and electronics from the same manufacturer.
Is all that really worth an hour's worth of salary?
I think if I ever go home made, it'll end up costing several times MORE than what's out there since I'll want to have it polished and home made as well as having all the features I want in it.
