I do not believe those are real HID lights, those are merely brighter halogen lights or some kind of light with xenon gas in it.

check out www.XenonDepot.com for REAL HID's

Jeez, the crap that gets peddled on eBay never ceases to amaze me... :rolleyes"

Those are not HID lights. Not even close. They're regular H4 haloen bulbs with a blue coating on them. They will certainly be brighter than the stock lights however, but only due to the massive 130W power rating, which will quite likely kill your alternator and/or battery, if the wiring doesn't catch fire first. There's nothing JDM about them either. That's just more BS to suck you in,

Real HID lights are extremely expensive, so pretty much anything you see called HID on eBay is a rip-off. For some good info on real HID lights and halogen/xenon upgrade bulbs, read this page.

If you want to improve your lighting, get off the internet and go to an autoparts store that sells quality namebrand lighting like Hella or Narva.
