Hi, i just purchase 6000k HID Ztec and im kinda confused on how to install it and cant find any DYI of how to do HID on a mazdaspeed protege...if anyone has one can you please help me out.
 
don't know if this helps, but most of the kits I have seen are almost the same regardless of what car it is. I believe you just unplug the connector on the headlights then take out your stock headlight bulbs and put the new HID bulbs in, of course remove the protective sleeve on the bulbs if they have them. Then, after you have the HID bulbs in, find a location where you want the ballasts to mount. Then, I believe there are two wires coming out of the ballast, one connects to the HID bulb and the other connects to your OEM harness that you unplugged when you took out the stock bulb. That should be it. There could be a third wire that you can connect to the positive battery terminal for power. Just take off the nut on the postive cable and put the power wire on the threaded screw and put the nut back on. It really isn't hard at all and doesn't take long. If you want, just look up HID installations on youtube. Most installs are similar. If you attempt to install your kit and for some reason your lights won't turn on, don't panic. You may just have something connected wrong or on backwards. If the polarity doesn't match( + to + and - to -), the lights won't work. Just switch it and you should be fine and lighting up the streets. Anyone feel free to correct me if i am wrong on anything I said.
