DIY HID INSTALL on a 2007 V6
Santa is bringing me the 35W, 6000K kit from Retro-Solutions.com. I can't wait to get them installed. I'm somewhat concerned about the demon glare, but I guess we'll see. After checking out a lot of different kits, I honestly believe this kit to be the best.

The only reasons why I stripped the wires was to ensure a 100% connection between the two. I also did it with this write up in mind and figured there would be a lot less potential “problems†if people just stripped the wires. Rarely (meaning I have done it and no one else has), those wire taps will just compress the wire down in the groove without cutting the insulation.

chancefor water to migrate up between the wire and insulation.
If the wirewere not stripped back you would have better watertightness
between the blade and insulation but still not 100% watertight. Problems
with your headlights are in your near future. [:'(]Stripping, soldering and
then adhesive lined shrink tube like OEM is the ONLY way to go.

I hate 3MScotchlock IDC connectors and they should have never
been marketed in the first place. [:'(][:@]
I dont know how many trailer lights I have had to rewire because
someone used those crappy 3Mscotchlocks.....
Mmm... when you guys say fast shipping how fast do you mean, because I've been waiting a week and supposedly according to the tracking system my lights have been somewhere between here and Japan for 3 days... [:@] I brought my car to school for a week and am paying the parking permits just because I expected the lights to be here and I could install them...
30,000 miles and a year and a half later, this HID kit is still perfect. The ONLY bad(not really) thing is the decals fell off the ballasts. Oh darn... I would buy this kit over and over again. Thanks guys and gals, I've seen my write up all over the internet. Allthough it has other peoples names on it claiming they made it up....
Thanks for the good instructions.
I followed them this morning to install my kit.
Install went great,took about an hour.

Forgot to mention that with the new kit it is not necessary to cut and splice the plug that goes back to the original harness.
