pbm317, yes I got the kit from Steve @ www.xenondepot.com . awesome product and an even better service correspondence. Steve is very accessible for any inquiries and I couldn't be happier with the product. I think there is a sale on HID kits through www.xenondepot.com right now.

forgiato, the install took several hours due to the fact that I installed two kits. The most difficult part of the install was drilling two holes in each headlight cover on the engine compartment side to allow the wires from the kit to flow through and keep the covers on. I didn't want to install the HID kit and leave the covers off. The beauty of the kit is that it comes with a grommet already on the wires that will cover the hole you drill. After getting everything in, the install looks very clean and maintains the cover, keeping dust and dirt out of the headlight housings.

Oh, I almost forgot, you have to take off the harness on the wires that connect to the oem plug to route the wires through the small second hole you drill. Then replace the harness and connect to the oem headlight plug (the one that originally connected directly to the oem bulb). Here are some pics of what I'm trying to say.
