Default New HID Kit ready to install.

Before I go nuts and install this kit, anyone have any advice that has done this install? Seems pretty straight forward plug and play set up. I will be putting them in this weekend. Here's a pic of the kit. It's made by Aline electronics in Japan. I will post pics of the install process and after for future viewing by other members. The price was amazing seeing it has lifetime warranty on ballasts.

not much advice to offer; it's as simple as it looks. clearances are kind of tight but that's the only part of the job that's difficult. plug and play and enjoy much better night driving!

Installed! Easy as pie. Just had to modify the grey cover on the back of the headlight eclosure cover with a 1" hole saw. Mounted the ballasts behind the headlight enclosure hanging down. Trying to keep them cool and dry. The system is still water proof regardless. Will take some pics at night.

Look forward to the pics. So this works with your existing head light assemblies? Where did you find it?

Default After Pictures

Hrer are some pics finally. I will try to get some more clear pictures again when I learn this camera a bit better. Now I need to change my fogs because they just look so inadequate.
I bought these from another dealer that does not advertise on here, so I don't want to step on anyones toes. All I can say is fast shipping and great service and warranty. Happy with them.
