Branded HID Kit fitted by experts is definitely a step forward if one can afford it.
Hids not designed for our cars and fitted by idiots is a nightmare for the driver and the oncoming traffic.
I am just looking to improve vision without disturbing the lights and also without irritating the oncoming traffic.
Branded stuff for good cars is definitely worth it even though it is expensive.
I have a small car which is mostly driven inside city so cant afford expensive hids, but wont mind spending a little extra for good quality bulbs.
