HID kit..

So.. I've been posting quite a few posts about random crap.. next on my list..

I bought a used Evo 8 about a week ago and some half assed HID's are currently installed. They go in and out etc. I want to pick up a good, reliable, quality set of HID's..

What do you all use and can recommend?

Thanks so much!
Jim

9006 lows. Who made the ones that are in there now. You may only need the bulbs. I have just the bulbs for 70.00 shipped for 2 of them, or a whole kit for 185.00 shipped. 1 year warranty on everything.

I actually have no idea who made the bulbs.. and if they are this crappy I don't want to worry about them again later.. I just want to get a new set and start new
