HID Light Installation- HELP

Hi all,

I just bought a HID kit for my 08 E350 and was wondering is it easy to install it. I looked at the instruction and I simply have no time to install it. I asked around and people will installed it for $95 and said it will take around 1-1/2 hours to install it. How long did it take you guys to install it yourself? Is that a good deal? Anybody know where they will install it in Los Angeles California?

Thanks

Also, please make sure that the HID kit is compatible with your 08 E350. I've heard of many people who have certain kits installed and they end up not working.
