Default lt1 hid question
I've been looking at all the threads about putting hids in stock housings. And one thing I've been confused about is does this install require an hid kit wit the ballast and everything? Or just simply the bulb?

Ok thanx. Would you happen to know how to install the ballast and all that crap. And does it require stripping any wires?

most kits are plug and play, and the ballasts have double sided tape.

yea just get a 9006 kit and silicone the bulbs into the stock housing. Wiring harness and ballasts are all plug and play.
