In the first post you mention legality, there is nothing legal about retrofitting HID's but who cares >.<
I bought a cheap slim ballast kit off eBay (4300k). The colour is great because its not over the top ricer blue, doesn't pull as much unwanted attention. And so far the quality has been great.
I used double sided tape and put the ballast on the side of the water tank etc looks tidy.

So you are saying Chubb is right, yet are still going to buy HIDs, put them in your Halogen housings, and be a menace on the road....
If you want HIDs, do it properly and get some projector housings to put them in...
