   Seeing as aftermarket HID's are illegal to use, safest option would be the Halo's.
   Other people on here will say otherwise, HID's however look awesome, brighter they are more chance you'll get pulled by the police, your choice.

   buy 6k HID's. I have had them on my car for a year, the police have pulled me over many times BUT never mentioned nothing about the HID's.

   Get angels, then HID's
   
   Less likely to get pulled with the HID's in a projector headlamp

   Some angels arent suitable with HIDs due to the heat.
   
   Mine say do not use with HID's anyways.

   Yours is UV quartz glass then, cheap £30 HID kits will eventually damage the plastic front.

    At £75 the kit you got is no cheap crap -its UV protected so is safe to use with the plastic angel eye headlights.

    angel eyes AND hid's..
    hid's are legal when in a projector housing.. as the light is more focused whereas on a normal headlight, it spreads every where and tends to dazzle oncoming drivers.. trust me you would not want to be facing a car with hid's in standard headlights! lol
