I'm looking at the enlarged picture of the contents and the harness connector seems to be the same and will likely fit -- but just to be sure (before I throw down $330) I'd like some confirmation.

Are these just supposed to fit in the stock housing, you just have to get the harnesses?

Yeah, they're plug and play. I just want to make sure the connector will fit the stock harness.

Since it says it is an H4 plug and play kit I am going to make a huge "***"umption and say that it should work. According to the seller,

If you know how to replace your bulbs, you will know how to install this kit.

Thats pretty interesting... looks like they stuck a xenon capsule right next to a halogen bulb in a single h4 base... I'm wondering how the uneven heat from the halogen will effect the HID bulb. Installation looks simple enough, connect all the wires and plug it into your stock harness. Careful though, McCulloch has a pretty bad rep around hidforum.. I've got one of their kits in my car right now and I had a ballast go bad on me. With most of the aftermarket conversion kits, the quality of the parts is sub par.
