like they said there are two main types

pnp are the same quality, so they go for $75-150+ so you decide.... some come with warranty so look into that

oem best quality, from any car, try junk yards

xetronic and xenon depot have quality component kits. They ARE NOT all the same and if you don't want to tear your car apart to replace them under warranty, stick to one of those brands. If our car had easy access headlights I would do the cheap kits.

My friend got a set of Apexcones from TheRPMStore and they're great.
Xenon Expert sells Apexcone also and I would recommend that brand.

I'm thinking about getting Techone Hid. They offer lifetime warranty for there kits thats why I'm going with that until I save up enough money for my retros.

How about this vendor

They have such a good product that this board has banned and censored their very name. Too much competition is not good!

i got my kit from HIDEXPERT . Denso ballasts with rebased D2R bulbs to fit a 9006 socket. i've had these since i got the car a year and a half ago and on the plus side if you retrofit later you just need different bulbs.
