What size bulb does the 05 take? T20?

I would opt for a H3 or similar slim base (small diameter base) HID kit/bulb for the build. You may have to whittle the base down a bit, find some old t20 bulb bases (or order online) and drill them out to slip over and JB weld(epoxy or high temp silicone) the modded base to HID base. Maybe go to the wreckers to grab the bases... Autolumination have bases, but im not sure if they have the right "key"

Should be pretty straight forward. I would recommend only leave them on for 30 sec to a minute maximum.

Also, be sure to allow your epoxy or silicone to fully cure, up to a week, or the solvent/gases may frost your lens.

* Edit, I would also recommend you run a fused relay loom from your battery

Hope that helps.
