Default HID's

Hey guy's thinking about getting an HID kit for the bike, just wondering if any of you guys have experience with them? Wondering if there's a heat issue, as i don't want to melt any of the plastics.. and last but not least.. a recommended brand?

No extra heat - less heat if anything.... just lots of light.

I've been staring at these things for a while now myself. Recommended brands are always expensive. Philips kits are pretty much the best you can get right now. But there are a few other good ones.

If you buy a bike kit (one bulb/ignitor/ballast) it's not quite as good of a deal as buying a car kit where you get 2 sets of everything. I was thinking of asking if anyone wanted to go in with me and buy a really nice H7 car kit and split it up.
