I got the autopal ones off ebay, and upgraded the harness. It doesn't matter which kit you get, if you don't upgrade the harness they will all look the same.

I got my housings off ebay, and bought hids from ddm tuning. total cost of 100 bucks. With hids I dont think you need to upgrade the harness which is exactly why I did it.

if your going to do the glass h4 conversion kit.. you need to upgrade the wiring.. so you spend 60$ on the glass piece h4 silverstar bulbs are 21.99$ a bulb, and I think the wiring kit is like $20.. so altogether it makes $130 to do the conversion....


If your going to upgrade go straight to HID kit CarHIDkit.com has a very good kit... $79.99 for HID wiring, ballast, and bulbs, and $59.99 for the glass lenses..The lense you can find cheaper elsewhere..the wiring kit is nice though.. and best part is this kit is SUPER easy to instal, 4 connectors, no splicing.. cutting or anything just click the connectors together mount the ballast and your done.

I don't think you need any of those cables or adapters. I didn't buy any and mine was plug and play.

DDM HID Kit, 55W, H4, 8000K
Bulb Color: 8000K
Bulb Type: H4/HB2/9003
Wattage: 55 Watt (+$10.00)

Wish I would have bought the Hi/Lo
