headlights?!

Hey everyone, when i bought my 05 VIII GSR, the previous owner put IX non-hid headlights in it. I would like to get HID's so what im wondering is if the fitment is the same if i bought IX HID headlights. In other words, if i bought IX HID Headlights, would they fit and would anything additional be required? I WANT HID's!

As stated above, you can get a set of HID's and hook them right up. PM me if you are looking for a good set I'll point you to my supplier. No need for additional wiring.
If you really want he 9 HID's then you are in for quite a bit more work. You have to wire in the leveling unit, plus the cost of the parts is gonna be ridiculous. IMHO, not really worth it. You'll get the same light output by adding a set of HID's to your existing headlights.

Just get an aftermarket set. Much cheaper than OEM stuff.
