Default 2006 A3 HID housing question

Hi guys,

Just got my 2006 A3 (Canadian build with sport package) with the very dim halogen lights. I want something with a projector bulb plus HID and I saw the below housing online. Has anyone has experience with this? I am planning on going with 6000k plus the cancellor.

Couple of questions:

1) How much fitting will be needed? I am getting very mixed responses from plug and play to everything about harnesses and VAG com tuning. Obviously hoping its plug and play. Also hearing horror stories of flickering lights and blown wiper motors

2) How does the HID and LEDs look? I am looking for a stock look, so nothing tacky and cheap looking.

3) Is this something that I can do myself in the garage with normal around the house tools? I am aware that I would need to remove the front bumper in order to install the headlamps.

My apologies on the many questions, especially my first post, but they won't take returns so I don't want to find out that they don't work for my car or anything like that.

Thanks everyone!
