What do you think is the best HID Xenon retrofit kit?

by best I mean optimum result, durable, with minor modification to the car's wiring and electronics system and/or hardware, no faults on the systems.

Personally I think HID fog kits are a waste of time. If used in fog they light up to much area to be of use rather than just the bottom of the road. If used all the time you look like a pikey/chav driver that should be in a Vauxhall(unless your one of the people that think fogs on all the time make you look cool and not a twat).

Trinity Autosports (Member r1racer) is the best place to get them from. You won't be sorry.

They are all derogatory remarks - especially Vauxhall which is the UKs GM! For mainland Europe, read Opel.
