Default Anyone done an HID retrofit on RS2 [H1] lamps?

I am curious what had to be modified in order for this to fit... particularly how to avoid chopping up the rear covers to string the wiring through.

Default Yes i'm saying who has retrofit HID's into the RS2 headlight...

RS2's are H1, but i have been looking at H1 HID retrofit kit and i keep noticing that there is a wire attached to the bulb which goes directly to the ballast. since the fitting on the housings are for the wiring in the car [and goes to the ballast] you kinda have to make a new spot for the HID wiring, i just dont wanna ruin anything.... guess i dont have much of a choice.
