Put hids in projectors. Dont put hid into stock housing. The light seems to be everywhere

HIDs in stock housing will do the job.
Projectors + HIDs will look better but cost more.

Its up to you.

No, wait till you can do both. Using the stock bulbs in the aftermarket projector housing usually causes the lenses to spider crack from the heat of the halogen bulbs. HIDs run cooler and will prolong this happening.

Yeah wait till you can do it right. I have been bitten by the HID retrofit bug and I can never own another car that does not have true hid projectors.
