Nothing special its 100% plug and play, you just have to drill a hole in the cover in the back of your headlight housing to pass the wiring and thats it. And after that you hook up everything like its on the diagram in your instruction. Can't really go wrong on installing these
 
My HID kit didnt come with a diagram or a very descriptive instructions of how to wire them up.. you think you can post some pics of how you set yours up and where you mounted the box and the wires.. im sure i can swing it on my own but prior knowledge is better i dont wanna mess anythgin up...
 
Well it easy:

1- put the bulb in your housing, Cut a hole it the housing cap to pass the wiring.
2- Connect the bulb wire to the Ballast(BOX) wires
3- Connect the 2 remaining wire from the Ballast(BOX) to the stock housing connector from the car.
4- thats it and enjoys your HID's

ok... cool thanks for the quick reply... i might pull the car in the garage and do it now or im just gonna wait till tomorrow.

So far the lights are already in the housing and the hole is cut and the wires are passed through... all i gotta do is mount the lenses and housing to the car and wire it up...
hopefully it all works well.
 
My good friend Jason Holden (entropy138) just got these for his black 92 stroker monster after me telling him he should be the guinea pig ;).
Lots of good pics as well, here they are. I will be ordering a set for my car as well.

Cut down those pics, or provide links to them. No wider than 800 pixels.

The dark one at night looking at the front is my new background.. god damn its hot
 
aright i went to go and install my HIDs with my new lenses just now and its not a plug and play with mine... the HIDs have two wires. (1 black, 1 white) and my stock headlights have three wires (1red,1black,1redw/blueline) so im stuck.. i dont know what to do from here.. i dont want to go splicing wires that i dont know what does what... after i reformat my comp ill post pics to show what im talking about.. unless you know what im talkin about and knwo how to do it then let me know.. thanks.

every kit are plug and play buddy. Like I said

1st put the HID bulb into the housing.
2- connect the bulb wire to the ballast.

After that you have only two wire left, you connect them to your old connector that you use to plug in the 9006 Bulb. It in the headlight housing also , so no splicing or cutting should be involved.
 
yea i notced that afterwards... i hooked everything up.... and nothing.. lights didnt power on... i plugged them in, connected everything... and nothing.. maybe my bulbs are shot or something? i switched back to my stock ones and they went on, but HIDs did nothing.. and i hooked them up the only possible way

there were 3 connections.. bulbs to the wire the led to the ballast, wires from the ballast to the origianl headlight plugs, and the headlight attatched to the houseing to the plug attacthed to the car...

Try making them work on your bayyerie directly , if the bulb lught up , your proble, is somehwere else, thats what i did
 
You just had to have black didn't you? Now i'm gonna have to get these new lights, they're just too badass to skip out on.
 
Anyone know where you can get the light for cheap. The shipping on these is outrageous off of ebay. Where have you guys been picking yours up from?
 
If you guys wait about a month, the price on these will probably come down a LOT. My projectors were $240 on eBay(I bought them when they first came out), and now they are $140 all over eBay.
 
for my new headlights (lenses not the HID) came to 211 shipped.. i used the buy now at 175.99 and it was 35 for shipping....

there could be a problem with my HID's though... i got a 1 year warrenty but im gonna bring them to my guy who does all electrical work since a hes a fam friend he'll do it for me for free.. if they still wont work then im just gonna get new ones shipped to me..
 
ok everything is installed and working :) ... the lights look hot.. i have work in a little bit and wont be home till after 1 so ill try and post pics then?
umm the headlight assembly cost 175.99 w/ 35 for shipping off ebay
and the HID kit came to 319 shipped off ebay... both were really fast shipping...

and venom thanks for your help man..
pics coming
 
I know where the headlights came from, I did not see there the HID kits were from, pardon me for asking a question that was easier to just give the answer, I am posting from work and I did not have the time to review every thread for the answer. Thanks for ur help anyway :rolleyes:
 
relax no need to make waves over something so stupid, that how flame wars get started.
as for others EBAY is your friend...
