HID install Q?
 
I just picked up a set of 6k HID's and I was wondering how the install is? I cant seem to find any write ups anywhere.....so for those of you that went through it....how is the whole process????

5 minutes start to finish ! Its easier than pluging in a XBOX 360 remote !
Step 1: Find a mounting location for the ballast box
Step 2: Connect stock plug to new plug from ballast box
Step 3: Connect HID bulb to ballast bulb plugs (there are 2 of them sometimes)
Step 4: Install HID bulb in housing lamp....and enjoy the bright lights !

^^^ Sounds easy...any clue if its the same for the fogs as well???

(for your headlights) The hardest part is just trying to find a place to hide the box's. But just lay out the wires in front of you and you will see they only fit one way into the plugs. On one end of the wireing harness your going to see a plug that has two metal posts in it. That plug is the one that plugs into your current headlight wiring harness and is located at the passenger side headlight. Will see that same plug on your drive side headlight too but its at the wrong end of your HID wire harness so that's why you use the passenger one. ;)

Your kit may have more than one ground, if so just ground them where your current headlights are ground too.

installaiton is verrrry easy.. takes a bit to wire everything nice though.. but the hardest part was probably mounting the ballasts.. just finding a nice even spot can be a bit of a biotttch.. specially on the drivers side
