Default Anyone know how to convert to HiD headlights?

most kits are just plug & play. if you can change a headlight bulb, you should be able to do this.

I bought a kit off of ebay and it was absolutely plug and play. Take the headlight out, remove the stock bulb. plug the new unit in. Mount the discharge boxes. Install ballasts into the stock headlight housing......they are pure amazing.....
