Hmm since there is no 'factory' HID offered on a Mustang as of YET! this seems very hard to answer! If you are refering to the Saleen HID headlights yes they plug into your factoryheadlight plugbut only uses ONE headlight plug into plug into their wiring then to each ballast.

Id like to get a set but it might just be easier to get the stangmod set. Probably a lower price & less install time. I hope Im wrong.

Are not most "kits" only low beam? Defeats the purpose if you ask me.

I think Saleen is still out of stock...

Folks, the HID option offered with the 08 models will be available (if not already) for our stangs. However, and that's a big however, the price per HID runs around $500...that is not the set, but each headlight. That;s an insane price. I have already checked this one and made a post about it...if I find it will include on this post.
