I'm in the market for an HID kit. I know they are illegal, but I still will get one, because I love the light they emit. I was wondering if anyone has any helpful information about HID's in general and/or what brands are the best. Any help will be great. Thanks...

Look for a PHILIPS or HELLA brands, HELLA makes PHILIPS. Other one that's decent is the McCulloch which is made here in the USA.
Also make sure you get a 4300K or 5000K light output, those come close to the Stock HID kits like in the Cadillacs and Lincolns.

I have a 7000K and the only thing with mine,
is that at first it lights up a real light violet color,
then it warms up to a bright white.
And that's on every start up.
The 6000K wil give you that bluish tintm then once it warms up it will turn on bright white.

Yeah I remember them, the Mark 8 used HID lighting, did you know that the Olds Bravada had at one point HID's as well?

Yea, the previous model style (before they changed over to the current Envoy/Trailblazer style had HIDs on the higher end models. The Catera had HID as well, before it was discontinued.

i have the 8000k in my Rora and its way brighter than my stock lights and makes my brights look like dirty water on the road. i chose 8000k b/c its more streetable.
