There are lots of users who use the GP thunders or MTec H8 replacement bulbs, but those can't match the whiteness of LED's or HID's, and neither halogens nor LED's can match the brightness of HID's, barring full replacement rings. The kit was about 160 bucks plus an extra 20 or so for an extra set of headlight caps with the necessary hole pre-drilled.
Cool thanks for the info I've heard stories of bleeding from HID angels at night and at night it's especially visible? What K do you have? I'm thinking they might be better value than LUX though.. Hmm. I suppose you could just get a normal H8 HID kit and install yourself with error cancelers too?
