I got mine from ebay but they were a online store for HIDConcept http://hidconcept.com/homepage.html
There has been alot of back and forth on what is real and what is not real. The stamp on the base of the bulb varies and the stem may vary. Mine came in a generic box but the box on the ebay auction showed the one G35MAN posted.
What are real and what are fake? What is quality? What is color? Who knows.....

Here is a response from the place I got the lights....
We understand that there are many fake/copy version of these bulbs in the market.
However, 85122+ bulb is standard 4300K while 85122wx bulbs you received are 6000K ultinon series.
You can easily identify this by looking at the part# on the bulbs and also red salt inside the arc of the capsules.
