    You will have to buy a set of aftermarket ellipsoid/projector headlight housings before you can put in a set of HID's, if you want to do it right. Look at any brand car out there and check out the headlights. Anything that has HID's has an ellipsoid projector in the housing vs cars with just regular halogen with the exposed bulb behind the reflector.

    I ran HID's in my civic for a while and didnt change anything, ran off factory headlight assembly. It worked fine, still put out a great amount of light on the road. Sometimes new ones are better just so they arent to bright for on-comming traffic, But I figure BMW's blind the shit out of us all with thier design ( BMW has some of the brightest HIDs out there, they blind on coming traffic ) so its no worse on our cars..LOL

    Dont get me wrong, I love the HIDs on the BMW's, they are just bright as fuck!! But thats the way I like 'em to look. But like the X5 and 7 & 5 series have mad bright lights
