JDM HID Front Install....With ABS ???

I want to install my front end on my 97 teg, but #1: I cant find a reliable shop to install it #2:it doesnt fit with the ABS...I'm not removing my ABS nor do I want wires from the HID ballast hanging out by relocating it....

How else do you fit HID headlights with ABS ??? Anyone know a shop in Jersey area to install ???

my friend unbolted th abs unit and it moved back an inch and it was enought to clear it, its a tight fit

also i've seen that they cut the ballast and zip tie it around its hard to explain but it really doesn't damage anything but it lowers the value of the headlights.

I've looked into this for awhile. It's the ABS unit. The 98-01 ABS units are smaller than the 94-97 units and therefore they fit with no issues. But one person I know unbolted the abs unit and just pressed really hard. That bent the lines a bit (without kinking them) and created enough room to allow for the HID ballast.

Messy...
