What Trim do you have? If you have HID's already then just go buy some 6K bulbs from v-leds.com

Well, HID's tend to have a sparkle and are much brighter than standard Halogen bulbs...

Assuming you have a base model you will need to buy a HID kit which is also available from V-leds

I really don't get, other than the ballast is black, what the big difference is between the premium and the standard. Is the ballast greater than 35w?

35w ballast but the differences I am not sure of either to be honest. I believe they use more "premium" parts on the ballast. I only got them because they had a good sale and a coupon code that put it at the same price point as the regular ones.
