Default HID Conversion + Euro Headlight Conversion?

OK~
1998 1.8t Quattro
I want to do a HID conversion with a Euro headlight and there are a lot of options out there - anyone else done this or somthing like it.

So far I know I need
H7 Conversion kit - I can only find low beam conversion kits. Anybody know of a hi/lo kit for my car
Euro headlamps - are the one's on ebay for 150 any good - they look the same as more expensive versions
I have 2pc headlights now - they say I can use the 1pc type with my year - is there much of mod to make this work

Just looking for a little insight

just put the 150 you would waste on ebay towards ecodes from ecstuning.com they're $400 plus 25 shipping and worth it. ebay stuff sux i bought some as a temp. solution and they are foggy right now as we speak. the HID will melt them also.

I have the ebay hid and halos, the harness rae fucked up theres 3 pieces, and you have to cut wires and crimp for the halos to turn on. And i have the HID kit hooked up to my high beams. Im looking for a low and high beam for a resonable price. Otherwise go with PIAA hyper white bulbs, there pretty bright for lows and the hid kit for highs, and blind some mother ******* driving down the road.

I have OEM HIDs, which are low beam only. I rarely use the hig beams,
as the HIDs give off light to the sides. They're white, and light up road
signs well.

Don't buy the ebay headlights they're crap. Get a quality set from ecstuning or lltek. If you want HIDs again go with a quality set, try xenonpros.com. If you get HIDs you won't need to convert the highbeams also, trust me the lows are bright enough.

i definitely agree by all means, you pay for what you get, and i just bought the hid and halos off ebay, for the look for now, im going to eventually buy the nice sets. I would wait and buy the good **** from ecs as stated above.
