yea, the Official guide that Gabe has hosted is for washer's only, doesn't mention anything about different wiring or the ballasts of the Xenon's.

I'm not sure if there's any real differences in the lenses and reflectors between the base model and the "washer/Xenon" assemblies. If not, then the Xenon bulbs will plug right in, leaving you with the task of wiring up the ballasts. So the questions are:

1. Do I need new headlamp assemblies (for the correct fitting and lense)?
2. Where do I put the ballasts?
3. Wiring harness and instructions?
