If I wanted to put HID bulbs in this housing, would I be able to?

HIDs are in with AutoPals for the time being. My buddy who installed them said I didn't need the harness, since he didn't use one for his. I have the B-Xenon High/Low, and my low beam appears to be similar to how it was before the upgrade. And my high beam switches over to the 6000k but isn't stupid bright. I actually aimed them down a bit, drove home and didn't get flashed. So I'm assuming the harness will make it brighter, and turn my low beam to 6000k?

Unless you have projectors, you will be blinding everybody. I had HIDs and hated them, I felt self-conscious driving everywhere. I only had 2 other drivers flash me in all the time I had them in, but that doesn't mean they weren't too bright. Now I have Autopal housings with HD harness. Never been happier.

what both of them said is 100% true, Not to mention that HID's are illegal in most states(unless they came stock).
I have Autopal housings, a custom harness(similar to Putco), and Yellow(2700k color temp) Hella 100w low/130w highs

I tried looking but I'm on my cell. How much are the norcal projectors?
Also, how would this be instead of the Norcal?
