Are they the headlight conversion kit?? Will they fit in the Stock headlights.... With some pics I might be interested in the HID's....

03Screwon22's Sorry to cut in about this headlights but here's by 2 cents:

1) HID WILL WORK on this headlights, all you have to do is trim the backing of the headlight, I did it and it work for me, and the HID's work very well!

I did do some trimming but still, this is what you'd get if you use a plug and play HID kit:





This is what you get when you slap on a HID kit into that housing. I did trim the backing to make the bulb sit perfectly and to get a decent beam pattern but the end results is still crap.

Your best bet would to do a retro with an authentic HID projector.

2) The only reason I took my projectors is that, one of the LED's got busted on each headlight, so It look getto with one busted LEDs for each headlight.

3) If you need any help or questions about this headlight let me know, I would be glad to answer your questions.
Now I'm totally confused. Here is my question:

If I DONT RUN "HID" lights...will they just install. Without CUTTING something?
