Default HID upgrade question?

I was just wondering ~ ~ has anyone here ever thought about upgrading their fox bodyheadlight's to HID? I ask because Ifound a kit for my car which would cost about $300 and has a 3year warranty. I do alot of night driving and believe it or not I was dumb enough to upgrade my regular headlight's to Sylvania Ultra Star headlights which cost me $50 and I notice no big difference, awhiter light yes, but no brighter! So I think it is kind of worth it I.M.O. but I am wondering if anyone has done this upgrade to their car and what they thought![/align]

Yep! American Muscle sells them for $280. Or you can get them off Ebay like Adder did and pay $115 shipped.

Anyone have a link? I thought for true HID you needed to make projector beam lenses and all that crap.

I think he got his off of EBAY. If you do a search, this topic came up a few days ago and he mention the seller he got them from.
