I will without a doubt have the diy up tonight, it took 2 hours, that included taking the bumper off and putting it back on, and headlights. They are so much brighter too.

Allright, so if I get everything right i need:

* (2) Xenon HID Bulbs in H7 (or D2S?) confused about the bulb type.
* (2)Digital 55watt Ballasts (which have built-in igniters from what i understood.)
* (2)Mounting Brackets
* (1)Pack Mounting Bolts/Nuts
* (4)Zip Ties
* (2)Pieces of 3M tape
* (1)Receipt & Warranty Card and
* (1)Instruction Sheet for 100% PLUG & PLAY!

+ * (2) D2S amp connectors (what are these for, hooking the ballast up to the power leads?)

Sorry if these are noobQ's, but i am a noob when it comes to this stuff.

yes you need the d2s bulbs, and d2s amp connector, they are so you can retain stock style conection to bulb. and you need d2s bulbs because they are what our headlights are for the hids. just put in your order details you need d2s pigtail amp connectors and to send you the invoice for them. trust me it is perfect.

if you want headlamp light great ,i have a good idea.

you only chage the original projector Reflective bowl,that is best opstion.

then the light will be like original when you buy this car.

this is TT original projector
