i just did a hid conversion on my car. It was pretty easy i did not take photos on it just the finished product. If you want hids all you have to do is go to pep boys, autozone, or oreillys. Buy new lights that fit the car, there is a white rubber on the back cut it off, clean it good take the screw out. Take out the bulb, go buy you a h1 hid set you can get plug and plays for like 40 dollars and the lights 40 dollars. You have to use a drimle to rub down a couple spots so they fit perfect. Then put the bulb back in and put the screw back in. After that use a high temp silicone to sill the rear of the light around the bulb. make sure there is no holes. you will have to wire the positive and negative to the wires on the back of the lights. it took me about one hour to rewire and put in. They look great. I will try to post pics

What ever ones you buy, make sure they come with a good warranty, the ballasts go bad all the time. I have read that because the TA fog light housing's are all plastic, there has been issues with them melting with the HID's.
