Default HID aftermarket kit recommendations/other questions

Hello guys,
I am selling my Passat Ecode HIDs this weekend and will be buying a kit for the URS6 that I am getting. I also plan on getting new replacement lenses.
So to the questions:
1. Which kit - brand (MTEC-Made in Japan, Mcculloch-lots of VW guys use them, or others?)
2. Sorry for my noobiness but what kind of bulbs does the S6 use for the low beams? (H7?)
3. Where did you physically mount the ballast boxes? (ANY pics or diy guide would be super)
4. I have noticed a couple ppl are running a total of 4 HID bulbs, 2 for low beam, 2 for the fogs, does this really make any difference?
5. Anything in particular that I have to watch out for?
Your input is highly appreciated,
Thanks!
Florin

Default They were $97, now they appear to be $57!???!!! Many B5 A4 guys have used vvme.com...

I haven't personally but unless they have turned shady in the past couple months it sounds like a frickin' deal!

I just went through the checkout. $35 for shipping. Still at $92, it's hard to beat.

PS. Doing your highs is stupid. Don't do it.

Default Welcome aboard..

I bought my HID kit from Ebay, a guy called Lighting 623,Outdoor Equipment, 5000K, for the low beams.I disconnected the drl,s and run my fog lights in the day.(I,m in Canada). It was $119 delivered in the U.S.Looking back, I would now also buy fog lights, also.We bought a 5 pack for all my friends and everybody is happy. Highly recommended.Good luck
