Cheap and HIDs don't go together.

Depends...

9006 bulbs are used for the integra Low beam...
My 95 Maxima uses 9004 bulbs.
The 2000 Maxima uses 9003 bulbs.

Not a direct fit as you can see.

Also, Integras use separate fixtures for high and low beam whereas the Maxima uses the single for high and low. IMHO, its not worth the effort to get this to work.

But that's just me talking.

Try the search function for group buys and HID dealers. Look for the appropraite application to your vehicle.

Even the off-brand models are pretty pricey. I thought I had a good deal on some Hanabi 6000K HID's, but with tax and all, they came out to near $400. For like $20 more I could have had the Philips kit.

I don't mind too much...the Hanabi's aren't too bad.

You can make HID's from Acura TL's and CL's, even the S2K work in a Teg.

You would only want to use S2K HID since those are the only ones that have been mentioned that are projector housing. The newer Maximas w/ HID do indeed use separate high and low beams, but they are reflector-type housings, as well as CL and TL headlights. You have to use D2S (projector) HID bulbs, otherwise the light output will suck.
