INSTALLING TURBOREVS HID KIT!

Step one: Firstly, remove your standard bulbs from the car, and put in the HID bulbs, and just leave the wires from them hanging freely for now

Step two: Find a suitable place to fasten your 'Power Packs' and fasten them to the car (make sure there is a suitable Earth point within reach of each box, and the leads will reach the bulbs)

Step three: Attatch the wires from the power packs to the bulbs, but make sure you put the wires from the bulbs through the rubber seal to stop water getting to your bulbs.

Step four: Find a place to fasten your relay box (black box) where it can be earthed, and also reach the plug for the lights.

Step five: Earth both of your 'power packs' and the black relay box. This can be done by fastening them to the cars chasis or a body pannel. I found it easier to undo a bolt and put the earth onto that and tighten it up again.

Step six: Attatch the 3 Spade plug to the connector which was taken off the standard bulbs at first, it should just plug in, and can go to either one.

Step seven: Attatch the power cable (red) to your + battary terminal, this will give your system power.

Step eight: Now all of the plugs should be in the correct place, go and turn the lights on to make sure they work.

Step nine: After making sure they work, finish the job by just using cable ties or something to tidy the engine bay up by bunching wires together so they arnt loose all over the place

Step ten: Step back, look at a job well done, and you have earned yourself a pint!

Tools needed: I needed a 10mm socket to undo/tighten bolts to earth to, and also a 13mm socket to undo a thing on my battary to attatch the power cable to.

Aprox fitting time : 20-30 mins
