Do not install HID's in stock reflector type housings. They are designed to be used will projectors and a cut off beam. You will blind everybody on the road if you install in a traditional housing.

yeah, definitely needs to be done on projector housings otherwise it'll just throw light everywhere and **** people off including cops. Also, got with the oem 4300K as it is the whitest, 5K and up have significantly higher blue tinges to them. So if you don't want to look like a ligtsaber gone awry then stick with the 4300K.
