You just replace the stock bulbs with the same type HID. I am not familiar with that particular housing, so I don't know what bulbs they use. I know a lot of aftermarket lights use H1 bulbs. You xan always go to the parts store with one of each of your bulbs and find out what they are then order the appropriate kit to fit those bulbs.

+1. The closer to 4500k-5000k (color temp, not brightness), which is a white or white with yellow tint, the better. The higher you go in color the worse your lighting actually gets.
