Most Favorable Review

Big improvement going to This LED product over Halogen and perhaps HID.

2 X 9007 HB5 60W 5200 Lumen White High Power LED Hi/Lo Dual Beam Headlight Kit
2 X 9007 HB5 60W 5200 Lumen White High Power LED Hi/Lo Dual Beam Headlight Kit

Pros: In a reflective headlight 2003 Grand Marquis LS you must remove the headlight from the vehicle to do the install which is best to do with any vehicle headlight upgrade. What looked not right was to point the high low beam up and down in the housing for reflective light dismemberment. Down is High beam Up is low Beam. You must also read the instruction manual. In the 9007 model case the positioning ring around the light bulb comes off with a twist counter clockwise so you can install the locking ring that comes with the OEM headlight to lock down the bulb to the housing. This is critical, otherwise as I have seen in some Youtube videos for those who don't read the instruction manual have gotten out cutting tools to make unnecessary adjustments. The light is brighter and whiter than Halogen ZXE or stock Halogen. The reflective shield on the light bulb is a very important feature on the LED bulb to shape the light as appose to other brands without. Now to the actual performance. Light comes on to full brightness instantaneous. No warm up required. Light does go further and wider than Halogen 4000k. The price is very good for the the product. I have a few long distance night trips coming up so I can get a better feel for how the LED preforms and will most likely buy this product again for two other vehicles I have to upgrade. I did the research on the actual design of this product, compared it's features to other products and I like this one the best. The Quality of the product does appear to be very good and provides a precision fit.

Cons: Since I like to do everything with perfections. It took me about 5 hours to do the install I was hoping for about 1 or 2 hours. In the 2003 Grand Marquis the side lights had to be loosen up, and the front grill had to be loosen up to remove the headlight housing. Otherwise the headlight housing would not come out. Bad car design, however, it does make the front end more arrow dynamic if that is even possible on a Grand Marquis. In this upgrade its important that you black electrical tape the locking mechanics and all electrical connections. You can do this before you put the upgraded housing LED installed back into the car. The instruction manual does not explain the properties of the reflective housing position of the LED Up and Down verse Left or Right. It leads you to believe they got it right with the positioning of the notches in the headlight assembly. This is where blind faith comes in. The manual is very simplistic and should explain much more. The manual if read quickly you can miss if your vehicle setup requires you to remove the positioning led ring in order to install the OEM locking ring then reinstall the LED positioning ring. A common problem with all of these upgrades is the Dust/cover does not get installed back on the housing which I do have a concern about water and dirt getting into the housing. I don't have a fix for this issue. On my wish list is the manufacture should offer some kind of universal boot.

Overall Review: Yes the product is something I recommend to others over products without a reflective cover around the Large LED, Light Shape is important. I was a little concern about the low price, but what I concluded is the EVERGROW brand is a product which the manufacture is making for other higher price brands. They look exactly the same as what is sold by other brand names in fact I think that is exactly what we have here. Now to the LED chip, It may be a generation behind other CREE LED chip products but I think they got it very right in this generation of the LED Chip and the thin driver box is nice. So I am concluding the Price is very good and the product is of high quality. So my take is I go with what does work.

WD Blue WD10J31X 1TB 5400 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 2.5" Laptop SSHD Bare Drive

WD Blue 1TB Mobile Hard Disk Drive - 5400 RPM SATA 6 Gb/s 64MB Cache 2.5 Inch - WD10J31X
WD Blue 1TB Mobile Hard Disk Drive - 5400 RPM SATA 6 Gb/s 64MB Cache 2.5 Inch - WD10J31X

Pros: Works as advertised. WD has a great winning product here. Drive does allow for fast boot up and the applications auto moved to the nano memory for very fast loads, like outlook, web browsers, and most commonly used programs. One big advantage of the WD10J31X over a all SSD is it draws less power and runs cool to the touch. So far the 8 gb nano seems to be enough however there is no way to know for sure since it is invisible to any tools I have. The read write speeds seem to be inline with the drive specs. Another plus is application that were hesitating before are now running correctly. The PC this is on is a SONY VAIO S Series I7 core Dual. I hope WD continues with developing new products like this drive since it is much better than traditional disk drives.

Cons: none that I have noticed

Overall Review: I purchased the drive to upgrade from a WD 750 gb to this 1 TB WD 8 gb nano drive. The stand alone drive duplicator worked great to do the upgrade. I did a search prior to see if there are any issues to do the migration and found none so I was a little concern if it would work. I was pleasantly surprised no problems. However some time down the road years from now if I do another upgrade will my stand alone duplicator pull all of the data off this nano drive hybrid disk drive to the next generation drive. I am guesting it will but don't know.

Corsair XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 Memory

CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model TWIN2X2048-6400C4
CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model TWIN2X2048-6400C4

Pros: Very Fast memory, Great for applications like Virtual earth maps, and running paging out to memory and not the hard drive. I have the windows XP set to no hard drive paging. If you have applications that will need more than 2gb of memory then you may want to set the paging to harddrive. The 4 4 4 12 with 2 volts runs great, higher voltage to memory gets you more speed which this product is designed for.

Cons: Cons, none per say. even thou out of the box one SIMM failed but the incovenence was more than acceptable with the advance RMA provided by Corsair. An advance RMA works by your Credit Card is charged for the memory and you are sent a replacement. When you return the bad Memory by RMA Corsair will Credit Back your Credit Card.

Overall Review: Great customer service with Corsair, I elected to go directly to the manufacture for warrenty. On arrival the match twin pack had one SIMM that would not opperate out of the package. Corsair Customer service did an advance RMA so I would not have a machine down while the replacement memory was being shipped. This was greatly appreciated. Thanks Corsair. Great customer service, that alone would give me reason to buy again. Standing up to your product counts in my book.
