I'm not sure what you want. You cannot just exchange a halogen bulbs with an HID. You need a ballast/ignitor meant for the HID. If you already have those, then you can go to http://www.hid-online.com/products/bulbs.asp and buy just the bulbs (9006 4100K or 6000K).

That is correct....bulbs are expensive. But look at it this way....with quality bulbs, like the Philips that are on that site, you wont need to EVER replace them Vs. a no-name.

Depends on what you want. The 4100k bulbs are more white and brighter than the 6000k. The 6000k have a slight purple/blue tint to them and are not as bright as the 4100k. So if you want the brightest go with 4100k and if you want the cool looking purple/blue light go with 6000k. As you increase kelvins the color of the light changes more towards a blue/purple color, but you lose max light output compared to a 4100k bulb.
