    Again, you DON'T need new ballasts to switch from 9007 to H1.
    Dammit! I already ordered a new kit. A post I made a long time ago I was told I needed a whole new kit for the projectors. GRRR!

    Ouch. As I said, I have the same ballasts I did from my stockers on my retro which also takes H1 bulbs.

    I think I sold you the projectors and just know running 55w will not melt the projector or anything at all I have been running them In the exact same type I sold you for 6-8 months now without an issue at all.
    And they light up real nice the cut off on the light is well inside the projectors so it doesn't aim high to bother people.

    Install properly? Nothing will change. Swap out ballasts, swap out bulbs, AND THROW ON THAT RELAY HARNESS.

    Put bulb in new headlights. Remove both bolts from both old headlights. Unplug bulbs and remove assemblies. Plug new bulbs in and install new assemblies in reverse order. Not quite sure what you need help on. They go in the exact same way.

    Lol you make it seem so easy! I don't even know what the parking light wires look like. I seriously have never messed with wires unless they were complete plug and play.
