Default Xtreme HID 4300k Philips Xenon HID Kits

Has anyone had any experience with the 4300K Philips Xenon HID Kits sold by Xenon Depot? Are there any major advantages to buying this kit rather than the Xtreme HID Kit. Does the Philips HID Kit match our OEM HID colour better? Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks.

Do you know why they used the Philips name and advertised it with their logo? It has nothing to do with a Philips HID Kit? Have you had any experience with this kit - any feedback on what makes it better than the Xtreme Kit?

looks like that kit uses Philips HID bulb instead, but not the ballast.

I think it's for those who just "feel better" about a bulb saying philips on it.

I wonder if they'll match our OEM HIDs better? Are there any advantages to buying a full Philips Kit - how much do those go for anyways? Thanks for the clarification though...
