DIY installing Xenons 2000 3.2 TL

I am trying to install Xenons on my Acura 2000 3.2 TL. How will i go about this. I am told to buy xenon hid conversion kit, and will use 6000k. and also told to buy D2R Wiring Harness Adapter Cable Connector. I am ALSO told to to do a Headlight lens restoration or get new headlights. The question is how will I go about installing these xenons, step by step if possible, and what do i really need in order to install this into my tl.

Thanks for the help!

Also Pm'ed. And no you dont need to take the bumper off. Are your headlights that oxidized that someone told you to get new headlights? Restoration kit should do it.

You dont need a whole kit. The car already comes with them. All you need is the BULBS. Go to the DIY thread and there are directions in there on how to change the bulbs

Well if you don't have a buffer with pads, then look into the 3M kit.

It has all the sand paper, plastic polish, and a small buffing pad that you can use with a regular drill. It's a pretty cool kit.

I personally use Megs Plastx, with a PC.
