I'm thinking that given the Valeo Projectors, there is a good chance that an HID upgrad kit will work. My info says that the bulb in the non-HID Valeo projector is a 9006 type (I'm going to validate). If so, the there are plenty of aftermarket HID kits starting ~ $275 (and up) to tansition the non-HID 300C lighting to a HID setup. I also am concerned that the Valeo housings are different in their ability to project correctly, so I was wondering if you were able to tell if the internal part of the projector was different in any way? If there are the same (and only different in the bulb sockets) then a HID conversion kit would make sense! I don't want to end up with "blinding" lights due to a bad upgrade that doesn't work just like the OEM setup.

Jim, the base are different and visually the lenses seems the same, but as well as Rogue said, the patterns at the wall are different too so its better to found the complete OEM HID housing and plug and play them.
