Default not another HID questions -geez

Yeah heres another one.

Does it make a differance on which brand i buy interms of cutoff lighting?
I dont want to have the light going everywhere.
I understand there is a stadard on regular bulbs such as a 9006 bulb made by brand A is the same spec size as brand B in terms of drop in size and such.
I know the actual buls are differant.
Is this the same with HID?

I just wanna know if a cheaper brand (150 dollars or less possibly 100)
Will make a large differance in cut off?

thanks

cutoffs depends on the headlight housing and not the light bubls, depeding on the year of the car for example 2007 would be 9006 and the 2008 would be H11, those are the kind of size you need to be concerned with.

I kinda want to do a retro fit on my 06 but I dont want ugly glare.
Im kinda thinking of doing it the right way with a true HID

Anyone have luck with the cheaper kits?
