Default HID headlights

How do you wire up the illegal HID head lights? are they worth the time and money?

I love how you added "illegal" in that sentence. lol

They are 3X brighter than Halogen bulbs so they are worth it but i wouldnt like driving towards other people knowing they are blinded by my lights tho.

i replyed to ur post on the other one i dont think u should get the cheap ones.... i believe that the HID kits are legal in all 50 states.. it says it right there on the chart.. a couple friends have them.. it depends on which color u want them... 10k are purple which of course are illegal and we have gotten stoped plenty of times and havent told us anything about the lights and he has 8k which are pretty blue.. but anyways.. i think that u screw the little box that comes with them and just plug them in and should work.. i dont kno exactly the details but i kno you shouldnt be turning them on and off becuase they are very delicate


here is a chart and a picture of the lil box i am talkin about..
