It should be straightforward, no?
Put the HID's in, check that + = + and - = -, drill some holes and hide the ballast.
Can't get easier than that.

Pretty simple install, hardest part is just finding places to mount the balasts. You are gonna love the results!

I've put HID's in, and to me it was pretty straightforward.

Yes, HID kits are simple and straight forward enough, however, HID AE for LCI E60s have multiple relays that most people aren't familiar with. Particularly with where the connections should go together.
