I don't think you need to do any special wiring from what i've heard its pretty much just hook up HIDs normally and your good to go. I could be wrong though im sure someone will answer it better for u.

You need to fix that bounce. Mine don't bounce but when you followed me back out to Main St. it looked like a strobe light.

Get some black foam and fold it up and wedge it under those lights. It will fix the gap AND bounce...

they look to be about the same price as some I have seen on eBay...shipping seems to be the major "x" factor in cost...as far as installing the HIDs I havent done it personally but since the projectors still have an open hole for your stock headlight bulb to act as a high beam I would assume your HIDs could be placed in that open location...then you may choose between simply firing a laser beam hole through the car in front of you (after you have fried his retinas) or hitting the high beams and simply melting the whole car down into a smoldering lump laugh

I have the black projectors with 5000K HIDs. I am using a bi-xenon harness which makes it really easy and plug and play.
