I am cross-posting this. I did this write up on Sunday evening after installing my HIDs. I am very happy with them but would recommend the 4300K kit. See below and feel free to ask any questions. Again, I am very excited about how they change the cars look ... as people above said, once you do it - you won't go back to halogens.

I just installed an HID kit I bought on e-bay earlier this evening. Full price with shipping was $60 - 6000K was the bulb temp. Ebay member hqz4321. The link to the seller's store...

...I would say I did it in just under two hours. This is mainly due to the fact that this kit comes with the wires attached directly to the back of the bulb. (This was not mentioned in the instructions above - maybe because the bulb was not directly wired in). Because of this I was forced to remove the clips on the back of the headlight - and reattach them underneath the wire once the bulb was in place so I could close the clip.

Placing the clip back into its little slots would not be so difficult except that the space is so confined that its hard to see what you are doing . Furthermore it is difficult to fit your hands in there.

In retrospect... I wish I had installed these two years ago. I bought the Sylvania Silverstars and although they had the white effect, it wasn't what I was dreaming of. The HID 6000K give the lights the effect I am looking for.

The light is a crisp and cool blue. It illuminates everything in a whole different way. I have heard many members say they wished they had gotten the 4300K instead of the 6000K. On this I might agree. I would say my new bulbs are a bit brighter than my halogens but illuminate the road much better - if that makes sense. Plus they look great.

I took the car out tonight and I could see heads turning as I drove down the road or sat a traffic light. The crossfire stands out on the road as it is, but at night (and day) the HIDs really set the car apart.

So if you are intimidated by the install... don't be and make the purchase. That was my one mistake. And if you are looking for a brighter light get the 4300K or 5000K bulbs. Really a great mod that I am very pleased with and you can't beat the price!

PS To any members out there who have worked on changing the bulb in their high beam on the passenger side please let me know. It seems that it would be close to impossible. I am interested as I did not have the patience to work that one out.

PSS Oh and lastly this kit did not make the "Bulb Out" light on the dash came on! I was pleasantly surprised as I have read of other forum members who bought much more expensive kits and had this problem.
