Can they be put on the '05, or is there more to it than just changing Bulbs, etc.

You would be better off going with aftermarket HIDS by the time you buy everything from Ford. $200 owns $700

Yeah, the HIDS are optional on the '08s. My car doesn't have them, but the regular headlights/fog lights are just fine for me. I get people flashing their brights at me a lot when I run with my fogs on, but that's alright too.

did it come with bulb, ballast and relay...and that is not true about all aftermarket HIDs being illegal, after all, all aftermarket means, is a product not original, so even if you bought factory ford HIDs, that would still be aftermarket soo.....
