I rode to work today too. Ended up not being as nice of a day as they said.
The HID made an enormous difference...but the Firebolt headlights are notoriously shitty from the factory. Honestly, I avoided going out at night before I put the HID in because I couldn't see shit.

And this sucker was mostly plug and play. But I wired a relay to the battery to take the load off the stock wireharness. There have been reports of the HID melting the stock connections. But, if you so desire it is completely plug and play.

I dont have any pics of the stock set up...but here's a couple of the HID. It's an 8000k bulb. Looks incredible at night.



The ballast was mounted right between the lights.


And the relay going back to the battery:
