Default What headlights are you guys running?

I'm looking to upgrade to HIDs, and I'm wondering what kind of setups everyone else is running and how do you like them?
Please post pics of your current setup, where you got them/how you did it.
Thanks!!

Running projectors with HIDs.






Other set I have too (which these are for sale, for pretty cheap) never mind the crack in the bumper, left over from the previous owner and haven't fixed it yet.
Not quite as bright as the first set but still worked OK, I just wanted a wider beam.
