Default Installing HIDs

I have a 99 GS3. What would be the best way to install a HID kit? Like where should i put the conversion kit / or the square metal box. And would anyone know if H4's is the correct one for the GS3. Thanks

Do a search and you should find some location ideas from others. You will need a 9006 conversion kit for your car. The H4 kit will not work.

9006 is the one you need, or it's also called hb4. h4 is no where close.

Pete,

These projector lens kit are very good for your GS. However, you need to modify your headlight housing to fit the projector lens. This is the major extra task other than the wiring. With the projector lens, you won't have the extra glare problem that exists in the most of the HID upgrade kits.
