The closest you will get to a "real" kit is to use these lights and this install guide

There are real kits on ebay all the time. This guy always has them on ebay WWW.ULTRABRIGHTLIGHTS.COM Im waiting for him to have more auctions. He had the 5300k kit on ebay for a buy it now price of $265. I just didnt have the money at the time so I'll just wait for him to have another auction and hopefully I'll have the cash.

No projector housing, no cut off, no true HID. Putting a retro kit that uses our stock housings or any autocrap style are a waste or resources and your money.

The best bet for a HID conversion at this time is to use a Hella 90mm conversion or a one off custom install using a OEM HID lamp from another car (Benz, BMW, Audi, etc.). Just the halogen 90mm setup, aftermarket fog/driving lights, Piaa conversion or a number of others will work better than those HID type retrofit kits in the stock housing.

What do you mean by "no cutoff"?

I agree with this portion. However, the best cost effective option right now is:

- Hella 90mm H7
- H7 HID kit from ebay
- Do a search on "90mm" to learn how to modify the cutoff
