Most of them just plug up to the original harness, there may be some extra wires if there is halo's or an LED strip. Hopefully they'll come with some instructions! Good luck...post some pics.

Those ones you just plug all the stock things into them. I would HIGHLY suggest that you get headlights with black housings. They would go so well with those monsters and freshly painted grille.

I just put projectors on. Mine were plug and play but not all are. In many models you will have to do some splicing if you want the angel eyes/halos to work. The main lights, parking and marker lights shouldjust plug in like the OEMs. It's the halos that might require some splicing. Again use care - a lot of the ones sold on ebay DO NOT include any installation instructions.

I don't know that they're any brighter but the beams do seem more focused or concentrated. and they look COOL!

I did the black housing projector headlights with the LED/Halo running lights. I had to splice in for the Halos/LEDs but otherwise very happy. Mine are only brighter than stock because I put 8K HIDs in but otherwise I don't think projector headlights are really brighter. If your thinking about them...get them...you'll be happy.

i just put in projectors and the worst part for me was getting them to fit some what flush while being aimed correctly. If you dont want to spend HOURS pulling out the headlight spinning the screws and popin it back in 60 times, spare the $20 for this aiming tool. http://www.matcotools.com/Catalog/to...ype=T&cat=2300 best dam $20 i ever spent!
