i am purchasing an 09 Si coupe, and its totally vanilla, i will definately do some stuff to make it my own, has anyone installed any of the angel eye headlamps on ebay? if so, any suggestion on which one to get?

would it be better to buy HID kit and Angel eyes all in one or separately?

They won't perform as good as OEM. To do it right, you need a genuine HID projector housing and retrofit within your stock headlights. Otherwise you can stick with a simple bulb replacement. Word of warning and I'm sure you're aware - HIDs in any halogen housing are illegal. They are easy to spot due to excessive stray light and inconsistent beam pattern. GL.

Here's a company that does HID retrofitting. The link below provides a good overview of what's involved to do it right:

If you decide to do ebay, just make sure to hold onto your OEM headlights. Cheap HID replica housings are known to leak/fail over time.
