I found an HID kit on stangmods.com and ddmtuning.com. Which is better or where does everyone recommend? Also I would like all of your help just to make sure I would order the correct size bulb... Am I correct when I say.... the headlight bulb is H13? the foglight bulb is H10? the lower GT/CS lower valance light bulbs are H11?

Will all HID kits match if you get the same wattage? I ask because stangmods has the headlight/foglight or the combo. American Muscle has the headlight/foglight kit. Where as ddmtuning has the option to order all 3 sizes.

i got mine from retro-solutions. they are great, and they offer a bulb capping service (which i recommend) which helps reduce glare.

has anyone who has installed HIDs actually bought HID housings or at least adjusted the headlights after the install? ive heard if you throw HID bulbs in stock housings you are going to be 'that guy' on the road blinding the hell out of everyone.
