Looks great thunder. I have had mine for about 4 or 5 months now and cant say anything but I love them. There are many satisfied members on this board with them. Anyone with a base model I highly recommend them. They can be purchased from importhookup.com and are very reasonably priced. Great guys to do business with too.

Hey Dave, I did have to send my kit back one time though, b/c of a deffective bulb. I know you have the 5000k too, Ive considered going to the 8000k bulb but its way too expensive. It seems like their are not to many bulbs that have the conectors going to the ballast like other hid bulbs. Like the stock hids for example setup is way different than ours. You know of a bulb that would fit our ballast other than from the brightstar bulbs?

It was about $400 for the kit. Everything was included to install it. It was Plug and play, no splicing required. I installed it myself in about 1 hour.

Also what part of Mississippi are you from Thunder? I am from New Orleans so you may be close by depending on what area.

Nice thunder...
I have the 5k Brightstars too! Did you adjust headlights yet??
I didn't realize how nice they could be until I calibrated the headlamps with an extra long philips. Apparently our factory halogens were set-up pointing almost straight down.
I love my HID's. The other day some 30 something guy was in his brand new EVO. We intersected each other in the lot and he was just staring at my headlights. I was doing likewise at his car because his HID's were pretty nice too especially in the sea of halogens.
The guy finally caught up to me while I was walking into Barnes and Nobles and he was like,
"Hey man did you change your bulbs...your headlights definitely look more beautiful than the other Z's I see around!"
I was stoked!
And dave, I finally changed my parking bulbs to high intensity LED PIAA's. I definitely know what you mean now. Totally awesome and clean looking!
