I agree with ee3racing. I took a whole afternoon for the install. There is drilling and soldering. You need to take your front trunk apart (the various panels and cd changer). The first time you do it you want to be very careful because although the factory instructions are simple and accurate, you don't really know whats going on when they say to connect this wire to that. Get some zip ties and heat shrink tubing. After all that, my units refused to lock in place, although my old units would go in and out with ease.

The previuos owner of my car installed one of those hid kits, and might be one of those who would say hey, 10 minute job. But if you looked at his work, well, it looked like a 10 minute job, and was about 10 minutes from an electrical meltdown.
