ok, since you have the ebay projector headlights, if you insist to put HID in them. just buy the HID kit and slap it on. but the outcome might not be that good. so if you really want to have a nice outcome, just get some HID projectors, example, projectors off the TSX, TL, BMW's, Benz's and etc. but the down side to do this is that it might cost a lot.

if i were you, i would just get a generic kit off people in this forum or ebay or wherever you can find them. and just use it on your headlights now. see if you really like it. if you don't, you can always keep the same kit, save up and buy a pair of AMP to D2S converter, HID projectors, D2S bulbs and start your retrofit. at least that's how i did mine on my ebay projector housing.
here is my ebay housing with the HID retrofitted

honeslty, i would do a retrofit, but its way over my head...which is why im gonna try and do it on my stock headlights, so i dont ruin my projectors...im basically keeping my stock heads to "practice" on before i do it to my projectors.....haha i dont know if that makes sence...

Actually, 4300k will be the closest to white, whereas 3000k will be yellow. 4300k is what most OEM bulbs are.
