I see alot of different brands and what not on ebay, some for real cheap and some that I would never want to think of paying so much... Is there a down side to paying, say, $75 for an HID kit?

Hmmm....confusion and panic set in.....what to order, what to order.....I don't want to switch to Xenon because I don't want to rewire. Looks like projector is the way to go. JKMoto says chrome housing is better than black for reflectiveness and brightness. Black looks cool though on a black Tahoe. Anyone have black and are satisfied with it?

most crystal clears have the chrome inside where the bulb is, surrounded by black

Do these sets come with the relay harness? Or do they just connect directly to the factory harness?

Well I bought two sets of these 9005 & 9006, so I will write a review after I have them installed.

I couldn't find any good pics of just the housings, but here are a couple to give you an idea. These are black with just the reflective coating behind the bulb.

ive gotten 2 HID kits from ebay. No problems at all. The First one was $150 (BPi) and i bought that like 2 years ago and i bought a second set in December for $75 (Xentec). No problems with either EVER. and the $75 dollar Xentec ones look a lot better than the $150 ones ever did. No cutting, splicing or running extra wiring to the alternator or battery.
