The idiot proof HID installation "HOW-TO"....with pics

-First open you door and pop the hood, then pop up the two retaining pins for the headlight and remove the headlight.

-Look where your headlight was and find the bolt (the bolt is upside down and you can only see the point of it) that is holding the header panel down.


-This is where you want to mount the ballast instead of mounting in the engine bay. Thanks to Heineck (who was helpful enough to provide 15 freaking pics of the same thing, LOL) I found this.

-Once the ballast is mounted, take the headlight Housing assembly to a place where you can sit down for a second and take the HID bulb with you.

-Take the cover off of the back of the headlight that is 9006 Bulb. Cut out a small hole in the rubber.


-Unpug the original 9006 bulb and remove it from your headlight housing assembly and place it somewhere safe. Remember not to touch the bulb if you want to reconvert later. (for whatever reason)

- Take the HID bulb out of it's protective case by unscrewing the bottom piece. Push the bottom piece down onto the wires AWAY from the bulb, and break the bottom piece to get it off of the bulb. This is what the protective case looks like.


-Place the HID bulb into the headlight housing and twist untill it wont turn no more, being careful not to break it. REMEMBERING to NOT touch the bulb or break the little "stick" on the side of the bulb.


Once done, plug the HID bulb up using the factory wiring harness that was originally conected to your other bulb.
Notice that the orange wire on the factory harness is used for the positive.

-Run the wires from the HID bulb through the hole you made in the headlight cover, and push the grommet throught the hole making a water tight seal.


-Push the HID bulb harness into the bottom of the housing and replace the headlight cover.


-Rest the headlight housing on the header panel Backwards, (so that you can see the back of the headlight). And plug the wiring harness into the ballast.


-Now plug up the other two remaining connectors (coming from the ballast)and stuff them down behind the front bumper.


-Put the headlight housing back into place and Voila, you are done.


-Turn on your headlights and look at them in amazement at how wonderful you are and now that you are a master HID installation tech. LOL
