If you want good HID's look for ones that were designed from the outset to be HID, one that comes to mind is the Valeo Sylvania Xe7 and Xe7R (there used to be the XenArc also, but I think they stopped making that one). The Xe7 is a projector style designed to fit into original 7 inch round holes, and the Xe7R is a reflector style that would look pretty stock. The only downside is that you'll have to modify the retaining cage and the bucket to fit, and they cost $890 for the pair.

Before paying $890 or $985 for a pair of Valeo Sylvania Xe7 and Xe7R you can buy two HIDs I have sitting on the shelf waiting to be installed in my 1963. By the way you save $200. There is no downnside you dont have to modify bucket to fit(not sure about post 66 buckets) I prefit them before sending my car to paint and body shop. I love these, no dips, and they look wonderful just sitting in the buckets. Yes they are made for motorcycles but once I adjusted them I dont think anyone drove by and said that looks like two motorcycles, anyway but good light is good light.
