There are multiple threads in the 3G Garage that can help you out.

Look under Section G: https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-2004-2008-93/3g-tl-garage-faq-3g-tl-newbies-553554/

I've had Kaixen HID bulbs for nearly 4 years with no issues. Morimoto HIDs are fairly common as well. Check out The Retrofit Source, along with our vendors HeelToe Automotive and Excelerate Performance to see what they carry.

Do you realize how much illumination you're losing by going with 8k bulbs? You also may have unwanted attention from your local LEO as well. My suggestion is to go 6k at most.

I decided to go 6k but I have 8k I put on all my other cars and the illumination is amazing with the 55w kits I bought.
Leo stands for what?

Maybe local enforcement office?

If so, no worries here on that there are allot of moded hid colors out here. Deep purple deep blue pink. Some that are so dark they probably hinder driving

VLEDs, or JLC Lighting

iJDMToy seems to be popular. I haven't ordered bulbs from them, though.

If you would have looked in the 3G Garage like I suggested, you would have found this thread:
