Default HID Conversion Kit

Hey All I am looking for some advice on an HID Conversion kit, what are the reccomended brands? I don't want to get screwed on getting a kit off of Ebay, but if anyone has had a good experience with one of those please let me know, other than that what other brands should I check out? Price isn't a concern and my bulbs are 9005.

Thanks!

I bought the cheapest kit (at the time) off ebay. It was 140.00 shipped from JCZONG. I have had it now for 6 months and have had zero problems. My father in law also bought a set from him and has also had no problems. I bought the 6000k and am currently waiting for my 4300k bulbs to show up since the 6k are way to blue. My father in law bought the 4300k and they look perfect. They are an exact match to the oem audi hids(at least in color) Remember, if you have elipsoid headlamps, 4300k will look blue when looking in the fixture and white on the road, 6000k will look blueish purple in the fixture and blueish white on the road. If you have non elipsoid headlamps, the 4300k will look white in the fixture and on the road, and the 6000k will look blue in the fixture and blueish white on the road.

4300k provides the most light output. I strongly suggest getting the 4300k bulbs. My 6000k bulbs look like I have a civic with hid bulbs. I think that looks cheap, I was going for what a real Audi looks like, not some Honda toy.

Most of the people whobuy the "cheap" kits off of ebay have no problems with them. They get a bad reputation because they're cheap and on ebay. The good thing is, if they break they'rearound $100. Also what kind of car do you have in order to have 9005 bulbs?
