My lights are out at the moment for polishing and LED bulb upgrade, and whilst out I wanted to fit my HiD kit. I fitted one to my NA many years ago and don’t remember it being terribly taxing, however my kit just has a red and a black spade connector - do I need to cut the OEM plug off the end coming out of the car and marry the wires up?

Would post a pic but uploader says it’s too big!

Ignore this, found my old thread from NA with the wiring colours and instructions on - all fitted just need to find a good way to insulate each terminal from the other one, maybe simple electrical tape but hoping for a better more failsafe option.

Just get a small section of heat resistant sleeving (usually some form of impregnated glass fibre sleeve) and cut to size then slide over the connection/connectors to keep them separate and happy.

Bye, Arno.
