that looks like a complete kit right?

that just appears to be the housings, no HID bulb/ballast/ignitor is included(most hids have the ballast/ignitor now in one module)


you'd be looking for something such as...

or

those were just random items i found on ebay, i am not endorsing those exact items or sellers, just using them to give you an idea.

As far as the bulb "temp" ill make it simple, stick with a 6000k bulb and if need be max 8000k. That all determines color of the light output, but also the higher up you go, they may look cool, but the distance the light is projected is reduced.



My SS has an HID setup out of a 2001 Benz S600, so i have a ballast and separate ignitor box. I installed these back in like 2003, wayyy before HID conversions became common. Now its still the same except i switched from the Benz bulbs i had custom mounted to aftermarket bulbs (12000k/9006 version)
