Go for something like this:

Colour range 6000K to 8000K for white/pale blue. If you go above 8000K then you are heading deeper blue light. I prefer 6000K myself.

 

You can choose 35W or 55W. I'd recommend the 35W as 55W are more likely to blind oncoming motorists than the 35W variety.

 

I'd also go for a CANBUS kit. I bought a non Canbus set that didn't work. Tried again with a Canbus kit that did work.

 

I'd recommend go for metal case kits rather than plastic case. They look and feel a lot more durable.

 

The kits are plug and play and the units can be clamped alongside the standard airbox on the o/s wing and alongside the battery on the n/s wing. You can do this with double sided tape or kits come with fixing brackets if you want to screw them into the inner wing panels. If you plug in and nothing works try switching the polarity leads on the kit first.

 

£30 will buy you a decent kit or you can spend £300 on a Phillips kit.

The CANBUS system on the Supra only works on the rear lights. So there's no need on the HID kit. Zero benefit. I have 55w 5000k - never been flashed at for blinding.

 

We used these guys, on the forum for a group buy. The kits have worked faultlessly so far. Only gotcha is that the plugs have to be on the right way round to work, this has caught a few out.

I have HID 55w 5000K Main and HID 35w 5000k Fog lights
