ddmtuning.com or vvme.com ... For the low beams you need 9006, you really don't need to swap out your high beams, as the low's will be bright enough. If you want to, though, high beems are 9005. Fog's are 880's. For the kelvin temp, really depends on what you're looking for. The lower the temp, the whiter/more visibility you'll have. Common for the most visibility is 4300k to 6000k. The higher the kelvin temp, the bluer your lights get. The visibility will go down a tad, but still pretty bright. I'm running 12000k in my fog's, and 10000k in my low's.

I bought mine from vvme.com, 10k in my lows, factory high beams cause I didnt want to run the wire to my battery for the duel high/low beam light, but plenty bright enough. I dont have HID's in my fogs but I have 893's just a bright yellow and they do just fine.

Why do people feel the need to be a smarta**? Dude asked a question, either give your input on the topic or simply don't read the posting.

I'm not being a smartass. There is a wealth of information here (not to mention other forums) on what everyone is using as far as HID ballasts so you tell me why it makes sense to continue to ask the same question from one person to the next without doing a little research first. People do not learn by being spoon fed, they learn by doing things for themselves. If you have a problem with it, take it to PM.

i did my research when i bought mine and hidsrus.com has a real good warranty hassle free replacement and great quality hid's just make sure to buy the relay harness and with my 07 the dls setting would make mine flick during the day so you would need to turn them on or off don't leave it on auto during day driving but i have 6k on my silver and it looks sexy ill post a pic tomorrow for you
