Thanks guys! The digital ballast makes it only take about 2 seconds to warm up to full brightness. These ones are the 6000K bulbs, im getting the 4300K this week, which are ALOT more bright

If your talking about wiring in the HID's, then even a 5 year old could do it. So simple. Just plug your bulb into the ballast, then put the bulb into the projector. As for wiring in the headlights, there plug and play to, but if you want to have the halo's and led's too, all you need to do is tie into the park lights. Just splice the wire, use some shrink tube and your done.

I seen those kits that you posted a link to. Those are alright, but im a little nervous about getting HID's off ebay. I paid 150 for a Bosch kit, and its pretty much top of the line, full warranty and everything needed. I don't even think that most of the HID's on ebay have a brand name. Plus if something happens to them, your kinda screwed, you have to send it back in, pay shipping, and deal with someone that probably won't reply.
I was lucky enough to find a local seller.

I'll definitly get some daytime pics for you guys. Next week i'll post another video and get some more pics, im picking up a set of 4300K bulbs, ALOT more light output.

Well to mount the housing all you need to do is just remove the 3 bolts holding on your stock housing, slide in the new housing and put the bolts back on. Its a perfect fit, no need for drilling or anything like that.
