lol yes i am over thinking it. well i just looked at a couple how to's and 1 how to has the same HID kit as me and the other one is just a ballast and everything plugs into the ballast.

atleast i have a heated garage and i can take my time doing it and do it right.

any tips i should probably know off hand befor i put them in after work today?

only things i would suggest is make sure everything is sealed tight, and tucked away, also make sure ballasts are securely mounted thats about it.

good luck and be sure to post pics when done!

Thanks dude. I definatly will post some pictures. Zip ties and 3m double sided tape should do the trick for tucking wires and mounting the ballast right?

I never ever will order HID's from TRS.idk how hard it is to send a box to a damn buisness with a suit number attatched. I got my wiring harness in the mail today after they sent me the wrong one last wensday so I finally got the new one today after TRS typed out the wrong address and I had to hunt the package down myself and just so happend to catch it before it was shipped back to TRS due to the wrong address. That woulda been the second time TRS woulda screwed it up.

But hey,ill have pictures up later if I have anyluck what so ever.
