Finally got it installed after some frustration. It was not plug and play for me as the connectors are laid out with the clips. I had to reverse polarity from the factory harness to the ballast. I figured it had to be something simple so I did not swear or raise my voice at all. I am good to go. I did cut out the rectangular taped section with a dremel tool and it makes it look somewhat neater.

Again Andy, thanks for your help.

Okay great, I forgot about the having to reverse the polarity. Sorry about that. It was easy I just reversed the factory connect that came from the housing and went to the ballast.

You will really like them when you go for a drive tonight.

Drove into town tonight (40 mile round trip up and over a mountain pass) and I must say... The HID lights make a HUGE difference. I am very happy to have made the conversion choice. They are not offensive to oncoming traffic and light reflective signs up perhaps a thousand feet down the road. My direct path is flooded with light with the cut offs very obvious. I would encourage any Expedition owner to think about this conversion.

Well I eat crow on this one... These LEDs DO NOT FIT either the base or the lens orifice. Mind you I will only eat crow served Jamaican style with Jerk seasoning! Sorry about that. Back to the drawing board on better back up lighting.

Ain't it the truth!! I have been shooting an invasive specie of Ring Neck Doves around my area for a year now. Great sport!
we have rock doves and ring necks here, they crack me up at the feeders, really timid towards other birds....but let a dove walk up and they get nasty with the new dove

I made my modifications to my HID installation over the weekend. I ran all of my connections out the hole I made in the housing. I think it looks a lot better.
