HID Fog lights - HELP NEEDED

[TTG89]

Hi Guys,

I have a 2008 Astra H SRi 150bph with the XP pack.

I have recently purchased a 35w H3 6000k HID kit with the intentions of installing them in the front fog light unit.
When I looked at the bulbs that came with it i seen that there was a Red and a Black cable (like you would find in a standard HID kit)

I read that one of the cables can be put into the female connector for the H3 plug and the other is the ground. Is this correct?
If it is correct can you tell me which of the cables is the one i plug into the female (I'm assuming red?) and where can i connect the other cable to the ground?

If its not correct could some one tell me how to best install the h3 kit in to the fog light unit.

Many thanks,
Steve.

The black (-ve) feed goes to the earth tag on the metal body of the foglight reflector, the red (+ve) feed goes to the centre of the lamp holder and then you fit the hid bulb in place of the existing lamp holder and plug the connectors from there into the ballast.

Thanks Gairo, it doesn't sound too complicated... Will i need to remove the unit from the bumper in order to fit the HID kit?

if you can get underneath it , then no

Thanks Gary. I guess I won't need to do anything other than remove the bulb cover?
