Yeah, mine had an almost "full-metal-jacket."
I daily drive mine, so we'll see how it goes. CK sold a BUNCH (50+ kits I believe), and I've only seen a couple of times where someone had a bad bulb, or even a color diff. between bulbs. I bought mine last year (maybe longer), so there's been plenty of time for others to post up the unsuccesses.
Supradupra has that install page, but I thought I saw another write-up for the wiring and relay to allow the high-beam indicator on the dash (or something along those lines). I think it was in one of Poodles' threads.
It seemed that my high beam was not working when I checked last night, so will have to check it out today.
Hadn't done the foglight rewire yet, but that may have something to do with it.
EDIT: I bought my set in a late 2007 group buy (version 2.99, I think). I got the kit which has actuators on the bulbs with sheilds that move electronicly so that you will have hi/low beams.
I linked the EBAY auction, for the headlight housings, but it's been so long, it does not show the auction details. Here's what I put in that old thread...
"I got my Euro headlamps for about $34 shipped, but saw that the same seller has these same head lamp housings listed for other vehicles at about $25 shipped.

The seller is performancexcessories and is no longer a registered ebay user. In the link I had posted, it was these same housings and the auction title says ... Chevrolet-GMC-Pickup-6x8-HID-H4-Conversion-Headlights
Again, the H6054 housings are used across a wide range of vehicles, including the MKIII. I made sure that they were not diamond cut and that they were Euro-spec.
Good luck!
