you will need bulbs and ballasts. Just blue "HID" bulbs won't produce the results you're looking for.

Do you have project headlights? - you would have had to replace the original reflector headlights with these if you do.

If you don't have projectors, expect the members of this forum to highly suggest against putting HIDs in reflector housings, and will tell you either change the headlights for HIDs or don't get HIDs at all.

Again, this is completely up to you, but just forewarning.

And if you get HIDs you don't want to stray above 6k bulbs for 35 watt ballasts, or 8k for 55w. Getting too blue of a headlight will drastically reduce your light output.

Hope this helps.

These are the ones i have install,the ballasts are not slim but they fit in the engine bay. 10000k is the blue color i have and i think you are looking for.

cheap and effective!
