it's 9006 for the low beams and 9005 for high beams and DRL...but I'd advise against HID high beams...you can get them from xenondepot.com

depends on who you ask..some are hit or miss...but xenondepot kits are usually really good, they sponsor this section...

I got mine from a local tuner shop....

Good brands for ballasts:
~Denso
~Phillips
~Matsushita
~Orsam Silvania

Bulbs:
~Phillips
~Orsam

that kit seems like it would be a good one....even comes with the factory harness clips...mine didn't

I built my own kit from parts.

I have matsushita ballasts, phillips 6000k bulbs, and a homemade relay wiring kit

I don't see why not...comes with a 2 year warranty, if you're not happy..send them back...post up pics! but don't get anything above 6000k...you'll lose visibility, ideally you want 4300k-5000k...I made the mistake of getting 6000k love them, but they are dimmer than stock when it rains....changing over to 4300k bulbs when I get enough money
