Just install it like any other kit man.. Take a look in the archive for lighting for my post. Should give you an idea.

they won't fit

the d2r/ds2 bulb of the tl won't fit into the h4 hole in your car and if u manage to ram it in it won't look properly.

you can reuse the tl ballast and throw in your own H4 hid bulbs.....that would be the proper way to do it

now i'm 100% sure i can get em in using the stock h4 bases, but i dunno if the beam of light will be focused down. I don't want the beam of light to be glaring out in all directions.
