HID conversion

Does anyone know of a good brand for HID conversion? Iv seen a few plug and play kits. Im just looking to get more light at night. looking at 4300K, 6000K or 8000K. Also if you have pics of your lights at night Id like to see them.

How was the install on the DDM Kit? Some kits I ran across require wire splicing or was this more of a plug and play. I can do EGR coolers all day but electro is not my suit. Also, any pics of your HIDS on the road at night? Im still trying to make up my mind on what color to get.
