Basically your headlight plugs will plug into the ballast and the xenon bulbs plug into the wires that come off the ballast. The bulb fits just like the stock bulb. Then just mount the ballasts. I put mine behind the grill so they don't overheat.

When you put in HIDs don't do your high beams too. Leave those conventional lights.

and HIDs take a minute to warm up so you would be blind for a few seconds while they warm up.
