Default HID Bulbs

hey everyone, im new to the whole forum thing and with fear of sounding like a noob im gonna ask my question.... i hope i do start this thread out right and in the right place. but anyway, someone recenetly backed into me and i go new lights for the front, i bought them on ebay (which probably was a mistake) and it came with the PIAA HID kit. i need to get the bulbs i think the right ones im looking for are size 9006? if anyone can lead me in the right direction as to were i can find the right size for the headlights. And also im assuming that i can should stick with the PIAA brand for the bulbs, or are there better brands to go with for the kit. thanx

9006 is what the flange fitting is for the stock headlight, you may want to check and make sure you don't have some goofy retro-fit going on.

Did you really get an HID Conversion kit? Or did the box say HID-like...

Did it come with a Ballast? (Looks like a small silver box, palm sized)
Brands that I'd go for would be Philips or Sylvania Osram.

You sure you didn't get xenon halogen bulbs? That woudl be awesome if you got a free set of hids free with your lights, assuming they worked. If you need bulbs or kits, Never Burn Out offers a lifetime warranty on their bulbs and kits.
