retrofiting hids consists of geting a car that CAME STOCK with HIDs taking apart thier headlights to remove the HID housing which is what aims the light beam and everything, also its HID bulbs and ballasts... THEN taking your headlights cuting a BIG hole in them and then securing the new HID housing into your headlight housing... and NOW you have a SUPER SICK LOOKING cut off beam and NO GLARE at all from the HIDS... and also TYPICALY most OEM HID ballasts fire up instantly.... most aftermarket HIDS give ya a FLASH of light then dim down and within 30seconds are to thier full brightness.
heres what ya take and make it fit in your headlight housings...

When I finally get all my stuff it'll be off to paint, I need to get a quote this week and hopefully should be ready to go, maybe if I'm lucky by the end of this week?

don't take out the computer, what if they have to move it around a little. but i guess writing down the mileage sounds like a good idea.
