Which xenon conversion kit did you use? Was it from ebay? I want to do that but I was always skeptical it would fit well. How does it work for you?

thanks for the feedback guys!! the HID conversion was from ebay, i paid $135 for the complete set. it came with two HID conversion ballasts for the low beams plus the HID bulbs, four 5 3/4" round housings, and two Xenon bulbs for the high beams. it was easy to install, just plug'n play!! i mounted the ballasts against the inside of my front fenders with some velcro strips. the only issue i ran into was the housings were a little different than the standard ones i had, so i had to tweek the trim rings a bit. they stick out of the housings more than the old ones did, but it still looks really clean and not even noticable unless i point it out. i was very happy with it. the HID lights are 8000k and very bright, i love them!!
