There are LOTS of threads on HIDs but the biggest thing is you have to decide on what color (temp) you want and know your bulb base type.

I think to 06' or 9007's also? I just put some 10k's on my truck and love them. I got the Hi/low slim Bi-xenons. I had to wire 2 10w resistors (1 for highs and 1 for lows though) other than that there a peice of cake to install.

Thanks for the fast responses. I am wanting the 8k blue bulbs. i guess what i am wondering is if one bulb controls the low and high beams or if it is two different bulbs, and if there is anything i need to make sure that is included in the kit?

Its one bulb same as stock. I had to wire the resistors to the stock harness, you just push it into the harness plug. It may be different for you, you may not even need it.

if i remember right, on my 06, i think i cut the stock connector off, and had to wire it up by splicing into the HID connector. (i can't recall if i'm thinking of my dodge or my mustang) I had the dual beam HI/LO 8K, either way the install was easy. the bulbs came with a relay that had a 12v hot wire, a ground and then wires for the control of the HI/LO feature
