Just got it in today and only took an hour to install!! Here are some pics of where I positioned the balast and wiring. All this installation took was drilling a 1 inch hole to the cap for the gromet, positioning the ballst and its just plug and play from there!!! I also used double sided heavy duty tape to secure the ballast even more whatever it was up against. It looks A LOT neater in person than it does in the pictures!! Came out nice and clean and professional!!! Its sunny and almost 90 degrees out here in NYC so all I have are daytime pics but will have some night shots tonight!! I ordered the 6000k Premium Philips H7 kit w/ CANBUS decoder from www.xenonsupply.com. With all the videos they have on there website and watching them a bunch of times it totally trained me for the installation!! Great customer service as well and I am very happy with the quality of the product!!

This might be a dumb question, but does the grommet for the dust cap come with the kit? Also, did you have to remove the headlight housing at all, or can you just leave it in there?

No removing of any parts and yes the gromet is connected with the wiring. Look at the videos on the website and look at all of them and you will get such a good idea on how to install)

Congrats and great job. If I ever get this thing I'll be getting that kit for sure. Now it's REALLY gonna look like a Lexus, lol.

Looking forward to the night shots.

Did you install HID projectors into the light housing as well or did you keep the standard OEM reflector?
