Default Question/Confused about Headlights

So my 2010 New Years resolution is to start upgrading my 08 Scion tC. I've been looking into getting some Silver Star Ultra (I'm a student so don't have a lot of money for HID).

My question is should I get it for low beam or high beam? I know its a matter of preference but I would like to know the general consensus.

Also, on AutoZone's website they have it for the low beam but it say "Without projector-type headlights". What does that mean?

Thanks

You should just save your money and get HIDs, they are 60 bucks from hidextra.

the 2008 bulb sizes are H11 for the low beam and 9005 for the highs

Agreed, cost difference between silverstars and HIDxtra HID kit is so small that you should just save up a little more and get the HIDs. H11 for lows (and yes, you have projector housings for your lowbeams), 9005 for highs, and 9006 for the OEM fogs (if you have em). and replace the low beams, theyre the ones youll use most and where youll see the biggest difference.
