From what I know, mobilehid makes great kits too. I heard a lot of good things about them. I've never owned them, so I only spoke about Mtec because I've seen them in action.

For the GS300 non hid headlight, do people use the 9006 ballast or D2S with a modified plug? What about the fog lights?

You can also use HID for the high beam, but you much disable the DRL..

mobilehid.com kits come with a 3 year warranty. and i've actually helped people replace their MTEC kits. lol.
Me too =)

Obviously I am going to sound biased here but stick with reliable vendors. Trust me, if you ever have a problem you will be happy you did so.

dont you need to do the retrofit to the HID headlamps?

How does these plug and play kits work in a NON hid housing? I have a 2000 gs300 without HIDs, how is the output if I just slap a kit on it?

I bought some cheapo's for my fogs last year and they STILL work fine and look the same as an expensive kit. Mine were off EBAY as well.
