    depends how much you want to spend. $40 can get you a cheap set from ebay all day.

    yeah i tried a product from auto zone but it didn't really make any difference and i think i want to do a dark housing instead of the cheap chrome looking factory ones lol (guess i should have stated that earlier, sorry)

    A simple search on eBay & I came up with these:
    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Corol...Q5fAccessories

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HID-2...Q5fAccessories

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2003-...Q5fAccessories

    Honestly if purchasing the blk housing (no projectors, 3rd link) does the job well enough for you then go that route cause the projectors look a little goofy. There is also this big thing where it's not 'safe' nor 'cool' to have HID's in a halogen headlight. Your choice though.

    well this is where i guess i'm stuck at, my current stock ones look like crap and i don't care for the chrome look because i already have black tail lights. maybe im not quite sure on what it is exactly that i want (open to any suggestions minus getting a different car) but i know that the stock ones aren't very bright at night and i need something brighter so i automatically think HID's.. i've replaced the bulbs in the stock lights with much brighter bulbs but it wasn't much help..

    Then purchase a new set of headlights (3rd link - blk housing), then purchase (from one of IA's sponsors) an HID kit (which are plug & play) and it will solve both of your problems >> headlights that look like crap + not bright enough <<

    some of u may have received great customer service but I didnt get no where near good customer service. I bought the bi-xenon 9007 kit and although i saw the 9007 kit right in front of me he insisted that i get the 9004 kit in a white box and i asked him a few times as i was rushed out of the store because he was going on break, "is this all i need to make them work"? yes that all he replied and i even showed the truck sitting right outside to them and they insisted thats all. Get home in athens and no instructions what so ever but i figured i could get them email....nope, he said they dont email!wtf??! then i said i have no idea what makes the high beam trigger and that i am missing parts i think and after confirming that i was supposed to get a relay harness with them in the box he keep saying look in the box, look in the box but the only box i got was a white 3x3 box with the 2 bulbs and nothing else would even fit there. He said just come by but it will cost me another 30 in fuel just to get there and asked if he could mail it to me and of course NO was his answer. Fuck that shit I was refered by 2 of my friends who buy from them all the time but we all agreed thats shitty as fucking hell of them and its cheaper from places on ebay so we will go there from now on. Fuck the dynamicsound distributors

    Hello, I just PM'd you once I read your review to see what happened. We have a new person working there handling the majority of customer service and phone calls, so they might have left something out of the kit. He has only been there for a little over a week. PM me back what you received and what you purchased and I can ship out the missing part and will send a refund for your purchase. I do apologize that you did not receive great customer service. I have been out of the store a lot since I am doing a lot at the other business I own. So this is the first I have heard of it and will talk with the rest of my staff about it.
