I've been lingering around these forums for a long time. After coming so close to buying a 5 time after time, we've finally bit the bullet and purchased an '08 GT with Luxury Package. Too bad the Canadian version doesn't come with the HID's the Grand Touring models have in the US.
I did a little searching on these forums and found some basic info on HID's but nothing comprehensive. I'm not sure if HID's are a topic worth stickying or not, but it'd be nice to have all the info in one place. Some of my questions are:
1. What kits are popular for the 5 and which would you recommend? and is it worth spending $300, $400, or more when you can find these...?

2. I've have no experience with circuitry, mechanics, or lighting, but I can follow a fairly complex set of instructions if it's well layed out. Do these kits come with them or is there another resource I can go to to help me install these?
3. Can I convert my DRL's to HID as well? How much does this complicate things?
ALSO: What about LED for my DRL's
