| It really is pretty much plug and play. If you can change a regular bulb in your car then you should be able to install HIDs. The hardest part is finding a spot to put the ballast but there is usually room on either side of the radiator, just zip tie them to the ledge. | |

| are the grounds independent or does it use the factory wires as plug and play for grounds?
just remember to reverse the polarity for our cars or you will burn ballasts up. | |
