HID Kit
As some of you have noticed, I've had multiple threads on how my HIDs keep screwing up. Now, both won't work sometimes and it's not worth it to get stuck somewhere when my headlights don't work so I put my stock ones back in.
So since I've gotten this kit, both ballasts have blown, and the igniter seems to work when it feels like it. This is a ProXenon kit that supposedly is a redone Hella kit.
To sum it up, I'm tired of these things getting screwed up. Does anyone have a kit where it's been nothing but great quality? Can anyone link me to a good place? I think the Philip's kit is good, but I can't find them online.

What year is your car? If you got a bugeye, then its most definately a 9007 sized bulb.
By the way, if you want an HID kit that works well. I might be selling my 8000K Bellof kit soon...

Has anyone used any of these recommendations? Since I really don't want to have to go through what these ProXenon ones have given me...

Yeah, I'm looking to get something around 4200-5000k

I have no idea what kind of bulb the WRXs use but I use OEM Denso ballasts with rebased OEM D2S Philips 4300K bulbs on my 9006 sockets.
Works great looks OEM too, no blue or purple color. Plug and play too.
