Retro into my JDM headlights, have a question about wiring ....

Got all the parts, now its time for the install.
My question ... the wiring from the ballast to the power source << I want to run the positive and negative from each ballast into my Factory halogen wiring harness ( pass. and drivers sides ).
Is it as simple as cut the socket off and tap into the wiring or do I need a relay in between?
Any fuses to upgrade ?

You're putting HID into halogen housings?

Nope, I'm doing a complete retrofit HID conversion w/ OEM Acura projectors.

Anyone ?

I would recommend using a relay setup, and drawing power directly from the battery.

I thought about this, but doesn't the oem harness already run through a fuse and headlight relay ??
