One end goes into the OEM plug and the other end goes into the HID. That's about as easy as it gets really :-?

The latter :P

The wires coming out of the ballast (the metal box thing) will plug into the OEM harness, while the plugs coming out the tiny black box will plug into the HID bulbs. Put the HID bulbs into the housing and you're good to go.

The only hard part is find where to secure everything.


If you still don't get it, I'll post pictures or something if no one gives you a better explanation.

OEM Harness > HID plugs > Ballast > Ignitor > HID Bulbs


I dont think you should worry much. Once you receive the unit, its all common sense.

Do some pre-research on which plug slot the black and white wires will go into and keep that in mind when youre ready to install


very simple and remember... Common Sense :D

Its plug and play unless you got kit from another car wich is still simple to do but its a pain trying to secure the Hid Bulb in place .....
