Default Best aftermarket HID lights

Hey Im buying an after market HID kit for my 06 is250. Rather than buying a bad set I rather just ask around to see who had the best experience with their HID lights.

I live in Ontario Canada so they have to be able to ship to canada. Where did you buy em? what did they cost? how happy are you with them?

Thanks

V-Led HID premium digital xenon kit. Easy to install, 2yr warranty, super small ballast that is easy to hide.

^ Can't go wrong with any of the suggestions above. There's also '11+ OEM with the LED DRL's if that's your thing, and you have a lot of money lying around.

i just installed a 5000k xtreme kit from xenon depot. pretty good quality, color looks good (mainly white with a slight hint of blue, oem is 4300K), warranty, slim digital ballasts...so far so good, i'd recommend them.

^ OEM is actually 4100K, not 4300K.

"Best" is so ambiguous, but I've heard very good things about Xenon Depot's Xtreme HID kit. Just do it.

I give Xenon depot and Steve a Huge thumbs up! He will take care of you no matter what!

8000K HIDS are not what you really want if you want brightness onto the road--they may look nice and bluish/purple but the light out put is minimal---I would go with no higher than 6000K HID kit for looks and good performance
