Default HID lights?

I just ordered new headlights, and was looking into buying a HID conversion kit for them. After looking around a bit, seems like the best place to buy one is retro-solutions.com. Now they have their NightVision SLIM Digital HID kit, and their NightVision SLIM Digital Bixenon HID kit. What exactly is the difference between the two?

So then I'll definitely want the bixenon. Which brings me to my next question. I can only choose 4300K for those on that page. Is that something where I can just buy a 6000k bulb as well and put that in?

The price kind of concerned me on vvme. You haven't had any problems with them though?

+1 on vvme.com, bought mine back in October of 2007 and have yet to have a single problem from them. Quite a few of my friends have them from the same place and haven't had any problems either. Go bi-xenon, you won't regret it.

Just put mine in from vvme on tuesday. Everyone in awhile, ill have to turn my lights on twice for them both to fully brighten, but other than that no problems thus far.

Now I just need to aim my headlights....
