| I think the guys at Jabbasport have a kit, and from what I can tell, it's really easy to do. Just fit the ballast units somewhere there is space and run the wiring and the HID bulbs to the original light fittings. One thing I was thinking of, is if you're using the ballast wiring to the bulb, how does the car know when a bulb pops as a warning light comes on the dash when a dipped beam pops.
