Anyone in Northeast or Central Florida have experience doing a HID Retrofit? I've got a 2014 and am planning on buying a kit... but am afraid of screwing it up and ruining a set of headlights.

The big Retrofit guys on the 2nd Gen forums are on the opposite coast. I'd like to do the work myself, but wouldn't mind some help from an experienced Taco Bro.
