um.......HID kits runs around $199...and dont burn out as quick as bulbs....i went one set of bulbs which lasted me 3months then i decided to go HID...ive had hid in my past 3 vehicles,,,,and most of my friends have it....never got harazzed by it if ur using around 6000k and not crazily white...i have hids on regular halogen housings and also projectors as well...never harrassed by cops...one time i got pulled over by a cop and he mentioned i have hid but it wasnt too blue...he didnt care...most of the cars out there have hid nowadays....

i believe installing wouldnt b too hard unless u drive the compact cars or newer cars...normally installation run from 50-180 max

don't waste money for HIR, eventually you want HID

With the amount of bulbs you are buying, you can go for HID.

I tried Philips Cool Blue, PIAA Plasma, Hoen Xenon Match and Nokya Ion, most of them produce the advertised white color, but the light intensity is very low. With lights that is not bright, that's useless. So far Sylvania SilverStar works well on my high beam and I have Nokya yellow as fog (thinking about 3000k HID...)

Normally plug and play kits are easy to install, but in BC, we have the Daytime Running Light problem with many cars, and putting HID has become an hassle. Many cars that has DRL on the low beam would need to get a wiring harness that bypasses the stock harness. I made one under $10 and it has never failed.

With more cars imported from AB or US, cops are no longer picky on new cars who don't have DRL anymore.

My car that has 6000k HID vs. Sylvania SilverStar;
