So Yeah as the topic suggests, I am thinking of getting a HID kit for my projectors...

I was thinking of getting this off ebay:
eBay HIDs
Anybody used this kit before?

I am thinking of getting the 6k version, so that the light is white, but not so blue as to draw attention to it.
I have done research on both here and on other websites, and so much information is just conflicting kindasad.gif
So, my questions are:
1) Will this kit fit? I am pretty sure it will since the Kit is H1 and so too is the Projectors...
2) How do these kits get installed? I am pretty sure it's straight forward, but I would rather be 100% than screwing it all up...
3) Where is the best place to mount the ballast (I want it pretty much hidden when the hood is open)
I'll add more as I think of them lol...


I do a lot of night time driving, so these should be beneficial and help me a bit...

Any help is appreciated thanks smile.gif I am new to this HID thing, and still learning lol tongue.gif Gotta start somewhere tongue.gif

4300K is the OEM colour for most cars, should be good to go.

Just bought them right then;
4300k HID for lows
Blue Tint 9005 bulbs for High Beams
White LEDs for Accent (Already installed)
Standard Yellow bulb for driving lights as they are for fog and such
