Those are true HID bulbs with ballasts, BUT they are low quality kits and the ballasts probably won't last real long. Not to mention HIDs never look right if they aren't used in a projector lens.

I hate oncoming vehicles with those HID conversion kits. They're bright as hell but they need to be focused through a projector lens, without them they're blinding.
