Which brand/company to choose?
Which HID conversion company would you choose out of the following and why? Probably going to hear out of these three Philips (XenonDepot) moreso than anything, but hopefully someone can enlighten me moreso on the choice.
Meccatune, McCulloch, and/or Philips

beware of xenondepot. if it's not a p32-d connector on the "philips" bulb, then it's probably not philips. if it has 2 connectors coming out of the bottom of the bulb, it's a rebased bulb and not philips. it may look like a philips bulb, but it's not.
if you have to choose, though, go with the philips kit from xenondepot. make sure it's the genuine philips kit.

If it's going into your stock headlights then you should get this: http://www.xenondepot.com/product.php?product_id=75 along with casperselectronics h4-d2s adapter shields: here.

that's a genuine philips bulb. notice the base does not have 2 seperate connectors. these are the bulbs that *should* come in the kit posted above.

that's not a genuinie philips bulb - knock offs do not last as long as OEM. it has been proven time and time again.
