    yes, but seems price has gone up a bit. Sometimes there are coupons or sales if you want to wait for a better price. I had a cheaper set of HID's, one ballast always gave me trouble so decided to go top end. There are good sets available for less if you look around and do some research prior to purchasing. But for the difference (-$50) I went with retrofit source.

    A few notes... Bi-Zenon... Is basically useless as the filament doesn't line up correctly for hi beams. You can do some extra work to tap the lamp holder and insert a screw (there's write up's) to adjust how far the lamp goes into the housing, thereby aligning properly and you can have somewhat hi beams. I got these, leave it on regular beam and is just fine (55w).

    Some posts state the 55w will melt the headlight housings... Been using it a while now, no problem.
