BEST HID brand and bulb type??

I'm looking to swap some HID on my 2012. I'm looking around for some feedback on this. what's the most popular HID brand out there and what type/brand of bulb you guys go with? I'm not trying to re-wire anything on the car. PNP is what i'm looking for.

You're not getting any feedback because no-one here can knowingly condone blinding others with drop-ins.

What does the "best" matter when the output is garbage regardless?

In his defense, and yes I'm new here (but not to car modifications at all), in my research on this forum there are several HID brands that produce a clean cutoff and do NOT blind oncoming traffic that still retain it's PnP ease of install.

Then again, there are plenty which are terrible.

I'd also like to know as well because the consensus on many other Honda forums is to go with HIDs vs. better halogen bulbs.

Clean cutoff and drop-ins are not one in the same in a reflector bowl. Ever.
