you just need to buy a HID conversion kit, they range from $50(ebay) and $500(phillips). I would go somewhere inbetween like 150-250ish.

there isnt really a street legal way to tint your tail lights, however most places wont really care if you do, if you just tint them a little esp i wouldnt suspect you would have any problems.

however if they are as dark as say mine..............stay out of massachussetts.

I used "niteshade" its comes in a spray paint can and you spray it on.........i think it looks good.

thats all up to you, depending on what color you want, I personally got 5000k, but if you want it more blue or purplish go with a higher K
