Being that it is a 95, you should be able to remove the bulb from the headlight assy correct? Well if that is the case then you can put the hids in the car and not have to buy new headlights. The hid kits work as a plug and play set up. You install a box usually secure it along the inner fender, then plug your stock plug into this box and run the new wires/plug coming from the box to the new bulb they give you and then you have hids. Hope this helps you. Just post up if you have more questions. Just search hid kits under google and trust me it brings up alot of options and info.

HID conversions are as easy as just replacing bulbs.

Rather then just a bulb that is a little brighter than stock, you get a bulb set up that is truely HID(High Intesity Discharge)

As mysticteal said, HID conversions are as easy as pluging your stock wiring into the control box, then running the wires from the box to the headlight assembly.

Spend the extra cash and get the simple HID conversion, you wont regret it.
