do you have a writeup on how to install these? How difficult is it to fit a kit like this?

Default If you want noticeably better quality, check out...

I have purchased a kit from Apexcone and have been very satisfied with it.

I don't put my faith in eBay kits when it comes to seeking high quality. Not saying that they aren't, just saying that this is better.

More money, of course, but you're getting a product from a manufacturer whos been doing this for a while.

If you want to go even BRIGHTER, you can opt for one of the 55W kits. Those will absolutely blow your socks right off. I can guarantee you that almost nobody driving in your city will have lights this good.

Heat may become and issue should you choose a 55W kit over the more traditional 35W kit, but I have not had any problems with the few I've installed. Do at your own risk, however.<ul><li><a href="http://www.xenonexpert.com">Xenon Expert</a></li></ul>

Default They are plug and play. The kit comes with all the hardware.

They come with instructions. You will need to drill a hole on the back cover of the head light for the rubber grommet.

Unless you have a Japanese street racer, or you are 18 years old, they seem to love the blue...
