Default true HID for 98+ Camaro

Hi,

I've done quite a few searches and pointed to nothing too concrete.
I also know about the new US legislation... but I'm in CANADA... so don't care.
I would be doing only the low-beams for now... maybe later, I can do the fog lights.

Anyways, I wanted to know what you guys thought of the following kits:Thanks for the feedback

thanks... I had read your post on the other thread and I think I prefer going for a 4100k, which is whiter with greater lumens ratings... I don't care about color... I want effecient lighting.

I did alot of research before I got my kit and alot of people told me to stay away from phillips and slyvania. Or atleast everyone with a vette.

thats weird,couldnt be quality. all oem applaications use them. might have somthing to do with the flip up lights. c5s dont have sealed beams do they. i know one of the reasons they decided to go with exposed headlamps on the c6 was so they couldnt use hids easyer. there surpose to come oem in hi and low beams. i always thought vettes should have had them stock.
