Okay, putting out a feeler here. I have 2 possible sources for a GD on HID kits. One carries Helios, and another carries Co-Way. But before I go presenting our site as a possible spot to do business, I want to see who all would actually like a set. No point in having them setup here and no one is interested.
To give you an idea on selection and prices, I'll give you their current site on the Maxima.org forum.

Guys, I'm getting a lot of traffic from the sellers, they just need one person ready to buy, and it's a go. They have to pay a Sponsorship fee just to list us these prices here on the forum. You can all see the feedback they receive on the other forum. And what you get is way better than buying regularly.
Lifetime warranty- bulb goes out, you get a new one. Brighter lights- who needs a high beam when these do just as well Plug and Play Kits- Just splice in the wiring, bolt down the module, and put in the bulb. and they come with everything you need to do it
And to give you and outside price, this is the cheapest I've found the kits online through a registered dealer.

With these potential sellers coming in, you're still getting a registered dealer, but at wholesale price.

Actually, I had the couple of bites from the Titan Forum. But I have to post over here what I do over there since their sponsorhip will cover both forums.
But if they do come here, the HID kits will still be there when you're ready. I'm picking up a set here pretty soon for my Highlander.

Ok everyone... I have talked with the Members from Co-Way... they're thinking of coming here.
I have taken the plunge and ordered a set for my Highlander... it should be here next week. I'll post pics if I get a chance. RIGHT NOW they're doing a sale for single beam kits with lifetime warranty for $210.

Sorry for the late update guys. For those wondering about the kits... THEY'RE AWESOME.
Hardest part was figuring out where to mount the ballast. I did run into one small problem, that was easily fixed. Toyota apparently wired the low beam harness on the vehicle backwards. So the + was sitting in the - slot. Nothing to do with the kit, though I was advised if I had left power like that any longer than I did, the ballast could have been damaged.
The light output is awesome, honestly I don't think I'll be using my High beams again anytime soon. SD streets have a big problem of when they are wet the lines seem to disappear. Don't have that problem at all, those lines light up really nicely now.
Here's some pictures for you.

The BiXenons are designed for the single Low/Hi beam bulb setup. My Highlander has seperate bulbs for the Low and Hi, so I was able to do the single.
It was easy to install, all plug and play. Like I had posted before, the hardest part was mounting the ballast. I found a spot for them, though it wasn't easy to get the ballast into it's moutning bracket. I'm extremely happy with them, so is the wife. I'll be buying sets for my F-250 and Maxima as soon as I can.
BTW... that's why I'm happy with all my vehicles being registered in TN pretty soon. Nothing like having out of state tags. Gets cops all sorts of confused when they have to try find out rules for another state.
