oh ok, thanks.
On a good note, my car is in the shop now cause i had that coolant leak, turns out he said he tightened the left bolt on the LIM about 3 quarters of a turn and he took it out for a long drive and it drove fine, no leak it was bone dry!  so atleast i dont have to drop a shit load of money!

i called him, left him a message cause i didnt get the instructions, but im sure i will be fine, i was just confused about those wires.
oh and why did they give me 12 screws??? i know i have to drill holes if i cant use zip ties, but why would they give me 3 sets of 4 screws?? theres only 2 holes on each ballast.

Points..
I put my HIDs in a few days ago...
I found that it was easier to pull the factory harness, back to the (daytime running lights) hole, this was not easy.. as I had to cut the factory harness,and pull it through the other hole, closer to where the light assembly connector plugs into..
and since my HIDs were backwards, I soldered the factory harness backwards.. as in orange to white wire, and white to orange wire to give the ballasts the right polarity..
I found there is no room behind the night headlamps.. and running all those extra harnesses was next to impossible to do right, and not have all the harnesses resting on the top of the headlamps.. (not an ideal spot, specially driving in the rain)
So now all power wires for the ballasts come out of the daytime rubber cup hole, and the HID feed wires are the only ones going into the night headlamp rubber cup..
Nice and neat, and away from the rain..
