Tim,

I bought a 6000K Hanabi kit from someone on the maxima board. There was a groupbuy on them and I got them for $395 shipped. I think it's the K2 kit but with different packaging. Go with the aulolamps kit, you won't be disappointed. Yes, I have e-code as well. The difference is night and day. As davidm said, you get a lot more light where it's needed - on the road. Getting HIDs without putting on E-codes IMO is a complete waste of money because you are not utilizing the full potential of the HID. Plus with DOTs , you are pissing off oncoming traffic with your blinding light. In order to get the alignment right with DOTs a lot of your light is going straight down. Not worth it.I posted a couple of pics :http://www.geocities.com/mike_c70/HID/ Pictures really don't do justice. I'm waiting for relays to come in so that I can rewire my HID (I had a flickering episode with my lights). I'll post pics as soon as I'm done you can compare before you make your decision.

Regards,
Mike
