I just installed mine last weekend. It plugs into the socket the headlight uses. Then the ballest and harness and bulb connect to each other. Nothing to the terminals unless you're using a relay? Or something like that. But PNP...simple as that. You just need to find some space for the ballasts. If I have time I can take pictures...but that might not be until tomorrow.

You didn't answer his question. Projectors are not as easy to wire up as HIDs. HIDs plug right into the stock harness, it's pretty self explatory. Look at your lights and the HID harness you got. Go from there. If you're talking about wiring projectors then go to HIDplanet.com or search around because there is a big thing about how to wire them up in here.

Hids kits come with all this and they are still plug in play? If so then I guess I'll give it a go.

yeah you really should try getting them in there before asking how. See what you can do and if they don't work, I'm sure someone can help you out here.

the new one piece headlight that comes with HID setup, I believe I"m missing the bracket to install the ballast, so I'm wondering what I can put the ballast cause I don't want the thing to just hang...

you dont wire up projectors. projectors are the lenses/housing. you wire up the HID ballasts which either come with adapters that allow it to plug into the original harness for power or you have to tap into the positive and negative. no need to run anything to the battery.

my bad. i was under the impression the wiring was different for projectors. I know that projectors are the lenses and ballasts, I just assumed the wiring for the projectors hids was somewhat different since people always b!tched about wiring them. I never put two and two together because most hids are plug and play anyway.
