Default HID question

I have a 93' del sol and have very little knowledge of cars. I was wondering about what I needed specifically, the price, and where I can buy them to save some money? Something like the image posted on the link down there looked cool, in the light in between the headlights. Would getting something like this require different things from the regular headlights? Anyone help would be great. Thanks.

The right way to do a HID setup is to do a retrofit. That is when you take HID components from a factory setup and modify it to fit in your car. For example I used projectors from a TSX, ballasts and ignitors from an Infiniti FX, and got a wire harness from http://www.theretrofitsource.com/

A retrofit eliminates the glare that is found in cheap plug and play kits from ebay. The quality is also superior so you wont be dealing with failed components very often.

You can find tons of parts and help on that site. Look up HID retrofit on youtube also there are some good videos showing how you do it.
