I would stick to Hella/Osram/Philips for ballasts and bulbs. I wouldn't trust the asian knock-offs for a daily driver.

pretty decent prices for the philip's brand: http://www.xenondepot.com/category.php?category_id=2

Exclamation What Mr.Green said.....
I'd definitely go with MR.BRGREENs ebay recommendation.

You can't just jab a HID capsule in the halogen hole

Housings/projectors/capsules and ballasts will all need to be bought.
