If you really want the HID, do not buy those. Those are just the xenon gas inside the buld, and will gone real fast. I have it before, end up I buy the Tacoma head light housing on ebay it cost $205 with free shipping http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWN:IT&ih=003
than look for a H7 HID http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/XENON...3286.m14.l1318

this will have the fully performance of the HID.
I am waiting it for shipping to my home. than after i install it, i post some photos here.

but please, for the love of god, get proper projectors retrofitted into your stock headlight housings if you're going legit HID.

don't blind others. do it correctly, or don't do it at all.

Or just get the MOD-Express H4 Bulbs for the Camry from the Classifieds section which has the Glare Shield built in. I've had mine for about 2-3 months and I love the brightness, and I have not been flashed by anyone for blinding them.
