Default Best Aftermarket HIDs for JDM front end?

Getting a new car shortly, 95 gsr with JDM front end conv. Currently doesn't have HIDs, so I am looking for a good aftermarket product that will work will with the housings. If anyone has some suggestions or pictures I would really appreciate it.

The Non-HID JDM front end that you are probably going to buy uses a halogen projector which is going to be universally horrible for any HID kit you buy. Trust me, I am actually in the same boat but I'm probably the only one willing to admit that I desperately need to retrofit some S2K projectors.

The answer? None.

Either cut up your housings and install OEM HID projectors (the JDM HID headlights are very similar to S2000 projectors), or buy some 9012 HIR headlights, which will fit 9006 projectors with only minor trimming. Over twice the light as stock 9006, with long life and same current draw as 9006. Only $25/bulb.

I guess I may look into retro fitting the s2000 projectors in there or maybe another car's depending the price. I guess I could also just look for a good deal on the factory HID projectors.
