Hi all - I'm not sure if this is where I should post it 'cus I just joined this site, but I figured I'd give some advice for those of you who are interested in HID Conversion Kits. I recently installed a very nice kit from Hella. It's an 8500k Bi-Xenon kit (High- and Low- Beam) and would recommend it highly. Hella makes OEM Xenon Lighting for BMW, Mercedes-Benz and many other manufacturers, so you know what kind of a look these will produce :-) It cost a little under $900 installed for me up here in MA. It's the best kit I've seen so far. I;'m sure you can get cheaper kits on eBay, but I wouldn't go for the chock-full-o-parts kits they sell. And yes, this is a COMPLETE Hella kit. An interesting side note on this kit, the starter and ballasts are one piece, unlike many other kits out there. If any of you have questions, feel free to ask me, and if you'd like pictures I can try and figure out my scanner after I take a picture of the front end when it's a little dark out ;-)

On the other post, yes they were almost 900 ($850 to be exact)...I went with a full Hella kit, and it is a High/Low kit. I think their Low Beam only was around $600.
Side Note: My bulbs are also 8500k, and as you can see from the prices on XenonDepot.com, the higher the K rating, the more expensive. i.e. The Hi/Low 6000k kit is $609 and the 4100k kit is $499
