H7 is the important part -- you can install a non-H7 generic kit but it'll be a big pain in the ****. The actual components are the same for bikes or cars.

As for temps, the higher the temp the prettier the color. From sorta bluish all the way to purply (sp?). You also get less light the higher you go, however, it's still a crap load more than you get from stock.

My ballasts had two mounting holes so I used the one that was already on the front frame piece and drilled another. The ignitors are tucked under the front fairings (one on each side). Every kit is a little different so there's no "correct" mounting method. I actually hate that the ballasts had to be where they are -- I just couldn't find enough room to mount them anywhere better.

 

wow its gotten cheap from when i bought mine a couple ago. here is the thread on msprotege.com http://www.msprotege.com/forum/showthread.php?t=119525

you don't have to be a memeber to read the thread but you do to be able to post. the guy has run group buys on other car forums before and he also holds "authorized vendor" status on protege5.com which means he paid dues in order to sell stuff so you know he's good for whatever you buy

the helio's also come with a spacer wit the h7 kit. my mucullogh kit didn't. i had to fab one up as the h7 bulb needs the spacer in order to sit right within the socket. the spacer did need trimming but it was better than to have to completly fab a part up

 

wow thats really cheap for an hid kit, seems liek a good deal considering i paid like 300 for each of my kits

 

does anyone know anything about that site that i posted? or would it just be safer to go with the GB?
