Regular headlights to hid headlights.. any problems?

Hey how you guys.. and girls, doing today!

Anyways, I have the non-HID headlights in, i bought the conversion kit, but i want to go a different route. I want to just get the factory HID headlight housing with the built-in ballasts and what not. Is this a direct bolt on, wiring harness from the non-hid will plug into the hid ones with no problems.

Please let me know if its a direct conversion with no modifications, just a plug and play.

thanks in advance..

The factory HID housing is part of the headlight leveling system, so you could use it, but you need to add the leveling circuit to have it aim correctly.
