Default HID Conversion question

Hi I want to get some HID bulbs and I am a bit confused. The H7 kit on http://www.cqlight.ca/ makes it seem to me that you only recieve two HID bulbs. Does this mean that one set of your headlights wether it be your dims or brights is still going to be stock yellow in color? Or does the HID bulbs not need to have two sep. bulbs?

Thanks

If you wanting to do it, Thers a complete kit I got on Ebay, They are called mtec. I have this conversion kit, its unbelivably great. They are expensive but they give a true HID xenon look, they are available in any color. This set is specifally designed for the s80 so NO ERROR MESSAGES . They come with xenon bulbs, Ballasts, Voltage balancers and mounting hardware. I love them....kinda pricy though....400$

You do NOT need HID high beams. You hardly drive with high beams on anyways. You will seriously blind someone with HID high beams.

only option would be to get a cheaper kit, but yeah they only come with low beams ..., but you'd need to buy the kit twice to do high and low beams.
