Hid Kits Evo Or Not!! Help

I want to buy a hid kit for my 05 endeavor. Has anyone installed a hid kit before? Does it involve cutting any wires or anything? Also can anyone reccomend any kits that are good or they have had and liked. I want to do this real soon so any quick help would be greatly appreciated thanks.

its very simple... 1st(optional) take headlights outa car. 2nd remove old headlight bulbs and replace with new hid bulb,be carefull not ot touch the bulb itself. 3rd plug wires leading from bulbs into balasts. and last plug red 2 wires with prngs on end into ur stock plug that would normaly go onto ur stock bulb.
that setup is for plug and play however if u get them from a acura or benz or sumtin then its more complicated u have to retrofit the bulbs into housing and rig alot....through experience go with the plug and play they r nice and easy

ive had tech one if u search u will find some on ebay usually go for 300 or so and many friends have had mccholuch or however u spell it. Make sure u knwo ur bulb type fisrt and second the color u want. Rule of thumb more kelvins(k) the less light they emit on the road but u will get more color, to keep with the stock hid look get 4300-5500 after 5500 u start to get into the blue and purple colors and 4300-5500 will give u the most brightness. Goodluck


p.s. there was just a group buy on hids if u look in the group buy section of this forum
