i just bought a set of 10000k hids for my monte, stock headlights and wiring and all that, but im just wondering if somebody here would give me some tips. cause 1 ive never installed hids, and i dont want to severely mess something up in the process. i hope this kit i got doesnt require me to cut any wires. it is a full kit btw, 2 bulbs, 2 ballasts, the wiring, and all the mounting hardware

oh and btw these arent for those projector beam headlights as seen in my avatar. i had to put the stockers back in cause those anzo's started leaking into the inside very bad. edit: im trying to find a solution to seal them better cause i dont want to get rid of them. i dig the look they give my monte

Got a link to the ones you bought most are plug and play, if I am not mistaken if you search the forums I do belive there is a write up on how to install

I can't believe I've been around here long enough to say this.......but search the forum. Try a Google or YouTube search first too, lol. I scour this forum from top to bottom before starting a new thread; it's basic forum usage mate.

That write up is pretty good. Your install may be a little bit different tho. Also I like to mount the ballasts where they can get some air flow to keep them cool.
