Made up my mind today… I ordered the HIDs from BPS Lighting. I have bought several sets of LEDs from them and have not had one bit of trouble with any of them. I callled and talked to them today and placed the order online shortly afterwards. I also ordered all of the interior bulbs in LED from them. I ordered the 35w 6000k Terminator kit. I will move the LED low beams over to the high beams when I do the install and lighting will be complete, I also ordered Auxito turn signal, stop and back up LEDs last week. I have the electronic flasher installed already and order plug and play 1157 resistor wire harnesses for the brake lamps so to not mess with the stock wiring at all. Full update when everything goes in and gets tested.

Sure as hell hope you ordered the right style...

These actually require an H11B for the electrode to be on the correct side and not cause a shadow.

Most order and run an H11 (which would also be considered the H11A), but for an HID application in a stock GTO headlamp an H11B is actually the correct one to use.

I questioned the tech support guy on this and he assured me their H11s were the correct ones and that the return wire would be facing down as it should. If this isn’t the case, then back they go, no worries.

only aftmarket HIDs worth buying are Morimoto IMO. I've tried a number of brands and those are the only decent ones on the market
If the ones I chose don’t pan out, I have zero issue returning them and stepping up to the Morimoto kit. This company makes pretty good LED bulbs and the customer service is very good in my book so I wanted to give these a try. Hopefully this isn’t too FPFQ to you like it is to someone else.

Excellent just wanted to make sure. You can always shave tabs to make an H11A work in a B (or vise versa) but clearly easier to buy the correct one to begin with.

Thank you for pointing it out. That was one of several questions I asked about their kit and the guy was very straightforward with me. Hopefully this kit works out. If not, it is not the end of the world.
