you could do it yourself, it's not that hard. It's basically the same as changing a light bulb, cept you have to find a place to mount a ballast. If you bought from propr'one, then he usually helps with the install if he has time.

With the relay you are 100% sure of getting LBF failure.

so you will get the light out failure light using a relay? I thought the relay was supposed to help stop that..

his relay is a wiring bypass. The kit is powered from the battery instead of the headlight wires
