Electrical HID Install question

OR if you don't feel like doing any of the work and already have the Depo housings, these halogen bulbs will give you great output and are very bright, and work perfect since, ya know, halogen bulb in halogen projector, like I've been saying lol

If the car has factory HID, when you unplug that big plug from the back of the housing and remove the housing you are removing the HID system. The Depo lights will plug right in and work perfect with the halogen bulbs without any extra work or programming or modifications.
So yes if the housing is h7 it will work fine.
I'm just saying don't slap h7 HIDs in the new housings as is. It will burn them up.

I hate to dig up a dead thread, but if I have factory hid, and swap to the depo housings, what are the low beam bulbs? H7, and the high beam is H7?

Fantastic info really appreciate your time and effort.
Can I ask...
The beam pattern on my factory xenon is awful, is it possible/easy?? to install a xenon capable projector into the original xenon reflector housing?
Or does this make no sense....tooo difficult to do?
I only ask because I have tried several brands of d2r bulb and the light pattern is dreadful with all of them.
Many thanks

Alright i know this is a rather old thread now, but! After working on many other projects i've finally come back around to this one! I finally managed to get all the components for the HID conversion for my Depo headlights. Just wondering if anyone could shed some light on the wiring set up? there seems to be more than i was anticipating. If someone could help me make sense of it I would really appreciate it!!
Thanks,
Burkee
