that's pretty much how you go about it unless you get a can of nightshades and smoke the stockies.

first set of projectors i've liked. can't see shelling out 190 for them right now though. i say go for it

if your stock bulb will go in there then the HID bulb will go in there.

only thing different the housing sees is the bulb. all additional wiring and ballasts are tucked up out of the way.

Ewww, projectors.

Go with the above suggestions.

If you're stuck on the projectors, make sure HIDs will fit in there. They are slightly longer than halogens, so they may not fit.
