HID wiring harness?

hey just wondering if it is necessary to have a HID wiring harness. i was browsing thru this site http://www.angelfire.com/ultra/brightlightz/ and says....
"Purchase your wiring harness now with or without the purchase of a complete HID Kit. They offer wiring protection for your car's and truck's HID kit. The harnesses help make sure the power to the ballasts will come directly from the battery and not from your light harness. The initial charge to the ballast is over 50W before the running power wattage takes effect (35W). This might not have an effect on your car the first 1-3 year but to help keep your cars wiring safe for later years, we recommend you purchase the upgraded harness. A single harness powers both; drivers and passenger side ballasts. They hook on to your cars battery terminals and are equipped with a 20A fuse to prevent blown fuses in your fuse box and filter the amount of power thats used by the ballasts. The harnesses are made with industrial strength rubber wrapped wiring and placed into a main rubber outside shell to make them water and heat resistant. It doesn't take long to install and can help you save thousands of dollars in the future. "

is any of that true?

You'll be fine without it. HIDS only run on 35w, which is less than stock wattage. Doesn't really matter...you can do w/or without it
