Default HID Kits, I wants one!

SO, I haven't even owned this bike 24 hours yet, and I already want to put some things on it!

I am shopping for mirrors, as one was broken off. The headlight needs to be rewired and since I'm going to be in there, I figure I might as well get the HID set up!

I found a ton of them on ebay, but I was wondering where you guys usually trust to buy yours from...

Also what size, is it H4 or H7, I have the F3 headlight right now, but plan on sticking the F4i front conversion on there sometime in the near future...

Also, what temp should I go with, 4300K or 6000k?

I like these a lot: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Slim-...item1e5be51775

On a side note, I need mirrors that will fit on an F3, and F4i, I found these:

I was told the wiring of a f3 setup to f4i is a H7 plug, not sure about the HID conversion but would think it would be the same. I am not an expert on this, so I could be completely wrong.

Have you installed your F4i headlights on your bike yet? I'd love some pics :P and the wiring is the same? it just wires right up?

Just need a new plug is all. I have put them on the bike, but haven't mounted to the fairing yet.

Gonna go with 55w 8k or 10k prolly. I want a bluer light and figure the 55w will offset the dimness in the bluer scale. Figure I'll do that next month and SS lines shortly after.

keep your eyes open on ebay for those SS brake lines.
Although my front are Galfer and expensive, my back one cost me 12 bucks.

Heh, I want SS Brake Lines too! But thats a little further down on the list : \

I'll look up that HID seller, I wanna put them on my 2010 Civic too

So I need the H7 55w 4300k or 5000k, I don't really want 6000k, but we'll see...

Now, will the H7 fit on my F3 or do I have to go ahead and do the F4i front too?
