Default Getting H I D S

hey guys sorry if this is the wrong place for this thread but didnt know where else to place it. I own a 2008 accord and since i just ordered my intake i now want to get some HIDs problem is a google search gives me a bunch of sites all clamining to be the best. so my question is any of you guys that bought hids where would you recommend i order mine from? i have oem headlights still but might want to upgrade them to some halo angel eyes ones in the future. and also i dont want to upgrade my high beams to hid i was told they dont function right because they have tio heat up so i wouldnt be able to flash people with my high beams( i flash to get the attention of those lets say day dreaming drivers) so id just like to upgrade my low beams to hid and possibly my fog lights if thats possible. thanks again 2008 accord 4dr v6

DDM Tuning makes some affordable yet reliable hid kits, around $30-$40 at the moment, bulbs and ballast included (though the price changes from time to time).

HID fog lights aren't usually done since shorter wavelengths scatter a bit more in fog.

That's a correct statement Jim made there..so think about that before you make your buy...

Thanks so much guys I went ahead and ordered 35w 9006 for my low beams for now. I think I'll just get some bright halogens for my fogs then or maybe a diff color but thank you all for the info on DDM looks like a good buy will post pics of my ride when i install them.
