Just be aware of two points: HID retrofits into lamp housings designed for halogen bulbs are ticket bait as well as a guaranteed failure at inspection time in many states now due to both glare (halogen housings lack a focusing lens) and the fact that many kits are not DOT approved, which makes them illegal for use on public roads; and when doing a PPI on retrofitted cars, we list the kits as a "deduct" item due to the previously mentioned issues, as well as the fact that replacement parts are nearly non existent.
