I was thinking about adding HID's also but I haven't heard much that was good with them. I don't want to risk cutting into the harness THEN having radio static.

I would be interested also in the pics and links. Kind of hard to figure out what is needed. The one kit I looked at came with 2 bulbs and ballast, they said to retain the Halogen high beam, not sure how this is possible if there is only one bulb

Pics of the install would be great. I'd like to run HIDs in the headlight and driving lights.
