i would recommend buying kits that uses philips ballast and bulbs. they go for about $450-500 new and around $250-300 used.
stay away from cheaply made kits, they dont last long and don't recommend a bulb that is 6000k or higher. stick with 4100k or 6000k color. anything higher will look purple.

what i learn from HIDs are all brands are the same ( xenon, hyper, top speed....) except for OEM HID brands like Hella, Phillips, Denso. My suggestion is to get OEM ballast and bulb. Denso is what stock lexus uses and phillips are what you find in Acuras and Hondas along with some other brand. I am almost positive that Audi BMW and Mercedes uses Hella. Good Luck!
BTW. I paid 300 for my Denso kit brand new.
Oh yea...try to avoid bulbs that have 2 wires coming out ( negative and positive ) usually those bulbs are all generic brands and within 2 years i guarantee problem. OEM bulbs are just the bulb itself and the ballast has an adaptor that plugs into it.
