looks great! do you just add them to your regular housings like bulbs?
are those low beam only?

They have those kits on ebay for about ~180 shipped now....just so people know....

If they really DO work, i may have to get a set!

those looks to be the highest quality on ebay...several reasons

- ability to use hi/low beams, not just low
- uses philips and xenon parts
- ability to choose the 4300-5000 colour area - much whiter light (8000k is a little too blue for me)
- they stock, and sell kits (H-10 I believe) for the foglights also

It just a ballast box that plugs in to the hid bulb, it literaly took 15 minutes and they are run WAY cooler than halogen lights.

yes the hid bulb is sized for a 9007 bulb size so its like replacing your bulbs then pluging them inline with the ballast box and stock harness, its all plug and play...I LOVE THEM, the 8000k is a million times brighter than the stock lights

I looked at the seller you mentioned and he only carries bulbs and no hid kits. Also do you still have high/low beam?

i just installed the helios 6000K kit on my... simply amazing. before the installation i had installed some projector lights that i though were pretty good. well after i installed the HID's MOTHER OF CHRIST i can see so much **** its unbelievable. the light housing i bought also had a seperate bulb for the high beams, so the HID kit only needed to be low beam. i can get pics later

And links for this stuff please. I can't follow the differences in what y'all are talkin about so seeing a product (and price. ) is quite helpful.

LOVE your ride man! I really want HIDs there on my todo list but I was thinking like 7500k, or do you think 8000K is perfect, I just dont really like the 'blue look'.

personally, i'd stick to the 4000k--6000k range. gives out the most lumens and i'm not a big fan of the blue/purple light.
