What is a good place to buy HID for my headlights and fog lights?

You will get various responses here on the forum.

If you do a lot of driving around other people, please retro fit some projectors into your headlights for minimal glare.

I live in the country and run IPF H4 lenses aimed down with DDM 35w 5000K hid. They work well for the country roads, but do not glare that much.

Some people put hid in the stock housings and I heard it is not bad, but it would not provide a nice light spread.

Do you have pics with both of them on? How hard was it to install for the fog lights?
