It took me 2 hours to do, removing the bumper was a pain in the back and my knee caps becuase of all that kneeling on the floor to get the bottom clips and bolts out. I use twist ties securing the fuse and relay to the OEM headlight wires. And for the other wire branching to the passenger side, I ran that along the chasis bar undneath the radiator. Here are some install pics:
btw, I had my little brother help out to take out the screws that secure the OEM foglight bulb and guess what he did?
He undid the screws on driver side with ease, and then on the passenger side, he stripped all 3 of the (+) screws causing me to use pliers to undo those screws... anyways on to the install pics:
I did some engine bay cleaning after I was finished:
I will take more pics of the headlight and foglight comparisions in the night and day, look out in a couple of days in the Photgraph Forum forum for the pics!
Do you think that double sided tape that came with the HID kit will secure the ballast on there?

Yo Volly - Maybe you can help me do mine! I'm in Sauga :-)
Can your buddy get me 3000K's for my fogs? I really would like a nice solid yellow for the fogs... Also - Thinking about converting my wife's SE-R to HID too...
Thanks,
Deep

As for the instalation it is really straight foward, look at my pics and follow the instructions on AcuraInspired.com, they are really helpful, from removing the front bumper and ballast placements.

I know it sounded stupid but the intake resonator looks twice as big, with different mounting bolts than in the other picture.
See what I mean?!?!

Well, thats what I thought. The ballast could have been moved, but I was going by the resonator..
Thanks for the clarification.

Oh yeah, the pic I edited on MSpaint was from AcuraInspired.com and that pic was taken on 1/11/03 as you can see in the pic, I never owned a TL in 2003. All of my pics are rather recent.
