Plug and play. It's not that difficult. Pretty straight forward install.

There's always someone looking...even if they don't know it themselves.

Default Modding the halogen housings to fit the xenons is not that hard
i am not that experienced with dremeling etc. and I had no problems with the install. You just have to trim a little to make the ballasts fit and then cut a hole so that the thick wire can make it to the bulb.
