Everything was fine to me...just a lot of re-wiring. I've had them in for a couple months. I can tell you one thing, they have the brightest brights I have ever seen on a vehicle.

9007 connector from truck goes into a 9007 connector from the headlights then splits off into a 9006(low beam projector) and H1(high beam).

If you want HID's in those headlights check out my thread. I put both a 4300K and 6000K and took videos off the warm up and output for each bulb. Could definitely help you decide what color temp you want to put in there.

Heres the 6000K------>http://s79.photobucket.com/albums/j1...t=IMGP1879.flv

And the 4300K----->http://s79.photobucket.com/albums/j1...t=IMGP1881.flv
