Ok, I have the mod bug but other then wheels and suspension I don't have anything else I want to do (that I can afford) other then maybe a few headlight mods, (Angel eyes, New bulbs etc..) and intake/exhaust.

So anyway I want to convert my brights to be HIDs (2003 G coupe)

If I buy a conversion kit, What housing type are the stock brights (H4, D2S Etc..) ??

I saw HID kits with balast + bulbs + wires for like $50 on ebay. (H4, H13 housing etc...) yes they probably will not last very long if you were using them as you headlights. But being in Miami and never realy leaving the city I usually only use my brights to flash someone who pissed me off / warn someone of cops. so if I only get say 500 hours out of them that's ok because I only use them for a few minutes per week (at most)

anyone have pictures of this being done before?

stock is D2rs, but what's interesting is you can throw in D2s bulbs and gather about another 400 lumens out of the deal (why? -- d2rs have some kind of wrap around the base of the bulbs which decreases total luminosity). /end nerd.
