i didnt get mine off ebay but i got some of those bulbs.

the ones that say they give you that HID look. To me all it does is make the light more white rather then yellow and perhaps a bit brighter. Other then that they are kinda what ever. If you need bulbs get them of if you jsut want them for that brighter whiter look. Other then that if you want the projector look save up for them.

The ones i have are 85w for the low and 100w for the hi. Ive read taht with higher wattage you run the risk of melting ur harnness and other things. Ive drivin with mine on (hi beam on dark isolated areas too) and have had no problems. Plus if something does happen then ill be motivated to save up for projectors.

Personally go down to a cheapo shop and c if you can pick them up as shipping as a bit much for low cost bulbs. Ive seen them down town at cell phone and nick nack shops as well as some of those vendors at the mall.
