Default hid kit installation

hey all. i'm just wondering if you guys know of a good shop that installs hid kits in or near orange county, ca. i already have a kit but lately i haven't had the time and i don't have the tools that i'll probably need to complete the work. i hear it's pretty simple but i'd prefer to enjoy my new lights sooner and not wait until i can do it myself. please post your recommendations and about how much it's going to cost for the labor. thanks!

its easy to install bro, only thing you have to do is drill a hole in the back of the white circle, then you're looking at about an hour for the entire install. save yourself th $150 install price at a shop.

yea my schedule's been crazy but i'm going to make time and install it myself this saturday. i already have my drill and i'm sure i can borrow tools from my friends or neighbors. i just thought there were shops that would do it for about $40-50 but i'd prefer to do it myself anyway. thanks all for your help.

it will only take an hour to install these and drill the hole for the bulb wires. Pretty easy to do! I just did another set today, this one was on my wife's jetta and it came out great!
