All the instructions should come with HID when you buy them.. It's all Plug-n-play

ur out of luck .. the high beams will be normal stock light... thats a sacrifice ur gonna have to make.. some HID kits have High and low in one bulb but they cost more... what do you need high beams ne way with HID's ??? they are bright enough.

thats not what i meant sorry for the cunfusion. i meant i want a low beam only hid system for the tyc projector and i know that it just has metal clamps that connect to the wire harness so do i just need to run one from the high beam to the harness as well since it won't be able to be pluged in due to the clamps for the low beam

nah just disconnect the clamps to the high beam.. reason why tyc has that is cause we have dual filiment bulbs in our OEM lights... and when u turn on the high beams .. a different wattage gets sent to the lights and turns on the HIGHs... I dont have tyc projectors but im assuming theres some kind of built in relay that detects the wattage change and switches from the low projector to the HIGH beam... just disconnect the clamps .. and connect the HID as normal to the low beams... your basically just not allowing power to goto the high beam ... making it useles since your going to HID... does that help ?

I have an H1 hid kit in my TYC's. It's made by Xenon. Very very bright and I suggest you get this kit. I don't know how the CATZ system is set up but I can give a DIY for the Xenon kit that I have. I actually had to modify the metal bulb housing and the rubber water resistant cap that covers the housing.
