the install seems easy, but as usual... seemingly easy may become frustrating to the shits..

how long it take u guys to install?

i took about 1 hour.
took off the front bumper which was easy as everything is just clipped on except 2 screws. i changed my headlights at the same time so i dismantled the OEM headlight from brackets and installed HIDs into new ones.
i got my HIDs from a shop in perth. costed $398 i think =/, brand = Xetronic

is stickin the ballasts on the underside of the headlight a good idea? planning to do it from the fender...

dunno watermo.. i guess in the end you just want the ballast somewhere secure + water is an issue too?

let me know when ur back in town so i can see what the hids are like so i can get some hehe =P
