pick up OEM HID components off eBay, or look on the hidplanet.com forums for people selling stuff. Get some OEM HID projectors, ballasts, bulbs, wiring, and do a projector retrofit.

McCulloch is the only good brand iv'e heard good which is on Ebay. The ultimate best kit in my opinion is the phillips HID kit with utiliton slim ballasts

Philips does not, and never has, produced an HID "kit".

Yes I am sure, because Philips neither produces nor sells any re-based xenon bulbs for use in halogen applications. There may be others that use Philips ballasts or other components, but that's it. Philips themselves do not make any sort of kits.

From the Philips USA website:
