HID Kits

My ballast broke and I need a new one. But since I'm buying a new one I wanted to know if I can upgrade to another HID kit? Is there any better? This guy is selling installed HID kits is this a good deal?

That looks like a pretty decent deal. Comes with a 2 year no hassle warranty. I bought a kit off ebay for $60 shipped with a 14 month no hassle warranty.

you can get some retrofitted. Me and a friend may open up a business since circuit city is closing now so we dont have nothing to do. We already retrofitted some in his van. Im doing mine soon probably Honda S2000 or 08 TL projectors

it headlights that are from other cars example 04-08 TL's have projectors you can make them and fit them in to your TL. Check out Volly a member on here he has retrofitted headlights and i doubt you will find projector lenses for our TL's on ebay

i think the next thing after HID is projector lenses

If I bought a new HID Kit from ebay I would have to mod something to install the ballast and the bulb? Or will the bulb fit into the headlight kind of the same?
