RE: Projectors HID vs. Halogen
True HID projectors usually come with D2S or D2R Xenon bulbs that are specifically designed only for HID projectors. The H7's are a halogen projector bulb. The HID "Kits" are a psuedo way of achieving near oem Xenon quality lighting at a fraction of the cost. In simple terms, they are simply taking a Xenon bulb and rebasing it from a D2R/D2S type to an H7 type. Being a xenon type bulb, they require the ballast/igniter combo to be driven. Therefore your basic HID Kit will have the new (rebased) H7 Xenon bulbs along with it's associated ballast/igniter, wiring andmounting brackets that can be done easily as a DIY.
HID Planet is a good source for research on this.
