    Default HID Recommendations?

    Ok, I was looking at the Apexcone 35W/55W Full Size Ballast HID Kit on ddmtuning.com for $50 u get everything needed to run HID's? Some people talk about "projectors".... what r those and do they need to be purchased separately? And can I still use the old high beam bulbs?

    Is 55W for high beam only?

    And there are all these choices.. as far as color, is this correct?

    3000K (Golden Yellow)
    5000K (OEM White)
    6000K (Diamond White)
    8000K (Iceberg blue) [I assume this is just off-white?]
    10000K (Brilliant Blue) [I assume this is "more blue" than 8000K]
    12000K (Exotic Violet)
    30000K (Pink Violet) [Who gets this????]

    So for the best lighting without looking cheesy, is 8000K the most "natural light?" Or is it the 6000K?

    Also, all these "H" bulb types, why so many? I just want the brightest low beams that will light up the road and anything in front of me the best way possible... is there such a thing? Geez I didnt know lights also contained a huge can of worms for crying out loud....

    Many also suggest bavtoys.com, so is the $120+ kit like the UDD Slim Hid/Xenon D2S Kit there somehow better than the Apexcone?
