How to Install HIDs on a 2006 WRX
- 1). Park your WRX on a flat surface, and turn off the engine. Engage the parking brake.
- 2). Lift up the hood of your WRX. With a socket wrench, remove the two 10mm bolts from the air intake duct and lift it out of the engine compartment.
- 3). Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery with a socket wrench.
- 4). Remove the caps from the headlights, and use the drill and drill bit to create a hole in the center of each cap.
- 5). Install the new bulbs into the headlights. Use the OEM metal clips that came with the HID headlights to secure them. Connect the headlight wires to the vehicle by matching the wires with their corresponding colors.
- 6). Pull the wires through the caps, and reinstall the caps.
- 7). Clean the headlight ballasts with acetone, and install them in the engine compartment. Mount the passenger-side ballast under the intact duct, and the driver-side ballast next to the washer fluid tube.
- 8). Reattach the battery negative terminal and the air intake duct. Reattach the two 10mm bolts, and close the hood.
