OK guys lets get this straight HID lights are not so bad as some of you think they are when I read all your posts I thought I should give you some advice
I ran a hid GB (group buy) 6 months ago we imported 30 units and I fitted about 12 of them by my self in Perth so this the complete truth
*you can not compare hid kits to any kind of globes including PIAA
But if PIAA are expensive the best alternative is the MTEC Halogen HID Bulbs

*hids consist of 3 parts the globe, the ballast, wire harness
*hids only come in 2 types 35w and 50w
*you do not need to modify the headlight housing to use hid and specially you do not need projector lenses
*higher the k rating less the light (4500k, 6000k 8000k)
*any thing above the 6000k mark is illegal (ok you must be thinking what about those lights on s500 ,Chrysler 300 its not the globes that makes them blue its the actual projector lence they have special grooves on them (like a prism)
*when you buy a kit from you need 3 things type of globe h3 h7 h4 ,k rating 4500k 6000k and the wattage 35 or 55
*vehicles with h4 bulbs have to have a bi hid globe so they can be used for high and low beam
every hid conversion must be done with a proper alignment of the headlight housing so if you get the beam to high its not the bulbs fault that is why all head light housing have been made to be adjusted
Any car can be converted
And hid reduces the power consumption due to the use of the ballast
Ok now for the best part I might be able to supply some hid kits for less than 20000 (also I can get cheap kits around 10000-15000) these kits are called
GT HID they come with life time warranty and you get the bosch globes witch comes with 1 year warranty and some of my friends are scheduled to come to sri lanka in December so I might be able to send them this month
Here is the link for the kit

I am using 600k 35w system on my mazda3 and it’s brilliant
