So if you're worried about a ticket, why even bother with a plug n play kit? You're MUCH less likely to get hassled by cops if you have a proper HID projector retrofit with correct optics. A glare-ridden kit will draw way more attention from cops, no matter if it's a cheap or expensive kit.

Don't go below 100usd. those might be cheap chinese junk. I had one china junk which burned out within one week. It really pissed me off. Mculloch is good but too expensive tho. Search "JDM HID" on google or ebay might give you what you are looking for.
