The issue here is not built quality or brand name of the kit, the problem is that those kit HID bulbs are not appropriate for the halogen reflector or halogen projectors. ![Thumb Down](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsdown.gif)

HID kits may seem the easy way to get HIDs in your car but trust me you are better off sticking with halogens rather than 50~300 dollars on a PnP kit.
If you really want HIDs then do a retrofit using OEM HID projectors such as TSX, S2000 etc.
HID kits FTMFL.

word of advice... if u go with HIDs in a projector housing or any housing at that, please please please use a plug and play kit, not a rebased d2r/s bulb. the lengths of the bulbs are different and a rebased d2 bulb with brutally beat up the optics more than a PnP kit bulb.

Here we are trying to steer this guy away from HID kits and you are trying to sell him one lol, funny funny of course your opinion would be bias.
Spend $50 or $400 no a kit they are all the same when it comes to performence.
Do it once and do it right, do a retrofit that is

i also would recommend just doing the tsx retrofit and be done w/ it. I will be doing it eventually. For now i just tossed some ebay HID's into my stock projectors. Had em Since march and everything runs well.
