Just get a T5 retro kit. The reflector is better and you don't have to worry about a sketchy brand from amazon.

Also, the link should be this. Use the link tools or just post for copy and paste if you have trouble with that.

Yes, these T5s are great. I will be picking one up myself when I get my 75 set up.
