Cheap Hid Conversions whats up guys...so i just found out that i can get HID conversions for $300. They are Kingwoods and they are comparable to the phillips kits that sell for over 400. So if cheapo kits run 250-300 this is a pretty good deal. i can get them in K temps from 4300 to 14000. i know these would look good in a camaro but it might be a trick to get them in a firebird cuz we have the stupid one piece unit where you can't just replace the bulb 
Heres a pic of what they look like installed in a 300zx in the seattle area. (6000k)
so yea anyways let me know if you're interested by personal message or whatever...thanks!

Just make sure they have the cutoffs or you will be blinding every person who is driving towards you and not too mention you will be ripe for a nasty fix it ticket. Enjoy, I have had my HIDs for almost a year and I love them. They are a custom, hand fabricated setup that my buddy did and it cost me $600....worth every penny though.

Say yes to the h9s....please...Wait, are these "kits" just bulbs, wires and ballasts or are they rebased bulbs to fit h4, 9006, h9, h13, h7, etc?

That only shows the low beam install but he also put in some matching (looking) high beams as well..........so I have four lil round headlights instead of rectangles now.

Those hella housings are what I'm running right now in a ghetto "popup delete"
