Your car uses a single headlight bulb with 2 filaments inside for low beams and high beams.

You must either:

Use a "bi-xenon" HID kit that has a solenoid-operated shield that moves to direct the light higher from the HID bulb.

Or, (much better choice) retrofit actual bi-xenon projector headlights, using clear lenses from aftermarket headlights so you will get a proper beam pattern, proper spread of light on the ground, and minimal glare to oncoming drivers. You can also get the cool blue/purple "flicker" due to the projector optics at the cutoff line, while still using OEM 4300K HID bulbs, which put out the most light.

In either case, you'll have to modify the stock headlight wiring so that the low beam will stay on when switching to high beam function. Otherwise, your ballasts will switch off when switching to high beams, and you'll have no light whatsoever.

There are a few kits around that are actually dual bulb kits, white they do what you want they have no shielding and I doubt are any good....
