Beware, I've heard bad things about the one piece headlight units. Especially with the LEDs. Most of the complaints are that the fit is horrible and the LEDs burn out quickly. Try some Lightning style or the blacked out Lightning style headlights.

They go in just like the factory bulb. All you have to do is wire the ballasts. You'd be money ahead on looks and performance just to throw HIDs in the lightnings

Just like Browning said, pretty much slap in the bulb and wire in the ballasts. Also, a lot of the projector lights are. It compatible with HIDs.
