Nice upgrade. Check www.urs4.com for details on how to remove the existing
lights. The first one will take you an hour, the second one maybe 10
minutes. Two little gotchas - removing the trim piece under the lamp
(written up nicely) and undoing the connector. Just squeeze the wire
retainer and then pull off the connector.

WRT the HIDs...only issue I had was finding places to install the ballasts.
On the passenger side, I mounted the balast directly under the lamp, and
slightly behind it. On the driver's side, I tucked it into the fender behind
the turn signal.

HTH,
