Default HID installation in walnut

Hi guys

I bought a Xtreme HID 6500K kit for my 2006 IS 350 but I do not have the tools (and I don't have enough guts) to install it. I called a friend up and he asked his friends and said he'll have to charge 120$ for installation. I was wondering if any of you guys are willing to install it for me.

I live in Walnut (909).

Thanks guys...I've been having this kit for almost 2 months now.

?? Installing my HID Kit was as easy as installing a light bulb, and putting the ballast somewhere
Could save some $$ by doing it yourself.

i installed mine a while back with really strong double sided tape and it's fine. it's not a permanent solution, but i needed it quick. but if you want to make it permanent, all you need is screws, nuts, and a drill and find a nice place to mount it.

To my faulty knowledge, drilling a hole in the dust cover and cutting wires so that they go through the grommet and reconnect those wires together is kind of a big task for me (i have never did anything related to a car). I jsut didn't want to mess up
