Is this too expensive for an HID kit? No

Is this much more expensive then the Chinese crap HID kits you get off of ebay? Yes, but it wont be crap.

You can get basic hid kits for about 45$, i wouldnt recommend spending more than 100$ unless youre retro fitting.

Not not a good assessment especially on these cars with very finicky BCMs, if you plan on doing any lighting work on this car be it HID headlights or LED interior and signal bulbs, they better not be cheap chinese off brand stuff. Morimoto, Philips and Diode Dynamics are expensive but well worth the cost.
