HID's Help/Info

I'm planing on getting a HID kit, but I'm not sure what brands to stay away from and what brand are the very best. Now I have found some "top of the line" brands but they want so much money. I know that you get what you pay for and all but I would like to spend no more than $70.

I know some people don't like the idea of HIDs in stock housing with out a retro fit but I have that all figured out... simply aim my headlights down some( I have some bright halogen bulbs in now and had to aim them down cuz other drivers flashed at me).

I have looked at DDM Tuning, HID Nation,and XtremeHIDs. Are these good brands to go with, or are there better ones. I have read some mixed reviews about DDM.

Any help/info is greatly appreciated!

Also I'm looking for a plug N play kit

I've not done HIDs either. Frankly, I've stayed away from them because of what I see at night - a great share of highly modified headlights that are mis-aligned, mis-installed, or just generally messed up ....

it's especially nasty to have such mal-installed HID equipped vehicles coming at you when driving an S car --the coupes are so low to the ground that even low beams of today's newer higher cars are blasting me in the face at night.

So of course I have never done HIDs either
