I would definitely buy an HID kit (but not at that color temp) at that price but what they are trying to sell there are just the bulbs not the complete kit with ballasts etc.

Am I missing something or no one else can read. The only place it mentions bulbs is the replacement bulbs they ALSO CARRY. Maybe I'm just blind and can't read.

Yes, they come with "control unit". If that is really a ballast then fine. What the ballast does is bump the 12V of your car to a much higher voltage for the HID arc. and it limits the arc current (so you don't melt your car ;-).
I don't think you want the 8000K bulbs. Way too blue, and you'd get pulled over. They also sell 5000K but bulbs only. They would be white, with no blue tint.

"Hi/Low Beam Control Unit 2pcs" sounds more like something to control switching between your high/low beams to me. But at such a low price with the majority of HID kits selling for around $400 and this one for around $200, something does not sound right.

Also, as was stated above, that temp/color is horrible. It won't throw any usable light on the road whatsoever and will make you a cop magnet. If you go with something in the 4300K to 5100K range, you'll get pure white and be less of a target.
