You don't need to get 55w.. I just said that's the most expensive version of the HID kit ddm has. Get a 35w 5000k and you'll be fine.

And retrofitting is more or less that: replacing the halogen projector with one designed for HID lighting. Alternatively, it can be installing an HID projector in a headlight housing that never had a projector to begin with (i.e. your stock reflector headlight housing)

there's a great example of retrofitting the morimoto mini into a reflector housing. I only know that thread because I want to attempt that retrofit into my sister's 2010 honda fit. It also gives you an idea of the great light output it provides, and if you scroll down (post 38), it shows you the bi-xenon feature of the morimoto mini (flipping the high beam activates a solenoid to drop the shield, providing the higher beam cutoff for your high beams)

edit: if you're really worried about legality, find OEM HID components, or just buy the kit from theretrofitsource

They'll give you 4300k bulbs, which is OEM color temperature. With that kit, you get a set of ballasts, bulbs, shrouds, projectors, and even a wire harness for your OEM H4 plug. All for $300. $350 if you opt for Philips bulbs and ballasts with longer wires. $375 if you want the previous 2 options AND angel eyes.

Thanks for all ur help, it really means a lot and i'm learning so much (+1 Rep)

But what is Bi-Xenon??

And if i buy that kit with the angel eyes what sort of headlight housing would i need to buy?

And just as a side question, are CCFL headlights good? I read somewhere that they burn out fast and aren't as good as LED's

And some video to show you what they look like.. kinda.. even though they're not the main point of the video. The CCFL is what surrounds my projector.
