Default HID kit into EG hatch?!

What HID kit can i put into my EG, I also heard something about installing OEM ones from another car that has stock HIDs? If so which car is compatible? Whats a good brand to choose? Thanks, appreciate the responses and answers.

you'll get ALOT of glare with a drop in H4 kit, i'd suggest doing a retrofit, search for it, theres a big thread someone started about doing it

okay stop now before you kill someone or your self.....your housings are not made for that kind of light output it will "scatter" light into oncoming traffic and blind someone bad enough to swerve into you or teh ditch so dont do it liek that, if you want to do it right, you need projector headlights....then you need HID projectors from a car that has them stock, then you need to replace the projectors in the projector headlights with the HID projectors....only way its going to work....listem man, before all this, make sure you have a good 400$ in your hands (for a budget build) and do tons and tons of searching....do NOT cut corners, it is not only a bad idea to do so, but it might cause a fatality if you do....DONT DO IT IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO DO IT RIGHT

ok i just did some more research and yeah a regular old kit is a bad thing to do but i just don't have the time to do a retrofit. The low k bulbs that are like yellow the 300k are also dangerous? What are some good plane old bulbs to get then? I don't like the crazy blue and purple look. Thanks sleepy_red_hatch for the info.
