I don't know which ones are best but I have the ford factory HID lights and I love them. The fog lights ar just the normal fog lights, mine is all from the factory.

You won't be able to just plug the Ford OEM HID's into your car. Its not a "kit".
Get the Saleens, they have been using them for years on their production cars, and they are a true retro-fit.

I don't know. Most say its a couple hour job at a snails pace, so it can't be to hard. I should be getting mine tomorrow, and will probably install them tomorrow night if I have space/time.
