Where to get plug and play HID

I don't have the BRZ anymore, but you guys are such an awesome bunch I'm sure you can help! The only option I didn't go with on my new car was HID's because the factory ones aren't great, so I have projector beam halogens.

Do any of you know a place around the Mississauga area or west of that, who knows their sh!t when it comes to plug and play options (looking for a place that supplies AND installs)?

I'm really nervous to just hand the car over to anyone as there are a million fly by night automotive lighting companies that actually don't know anything.

Anyways, any help or connection would be greatly appreciated!

There are about a million options for HID kits.

Depends on what kind of car it's going into, how much you're willing to spend, etc.

I highly recommend Morimoto kits. Bit pricey, but extremely quality.

That's exactly what I said, there are a million options. I'm looking for a shop that is knowledgeable, supplies and installs. I already have vendors who I'm comfortable with to just purchase different options but that's not what I'm looking for.

Price isn't an option for a good OEM quality kit.

Ahh okay. I just googled 'HID Toronto' and these were some of the first links that came up. Might be worth giving them a shout.

Thanks! I've actually heard of them both but don't know anyone who has used them. I was hoping to get some real experience from members here who have used local shops.
