marvins_dad,
Don't be intimidated. I installed a set of OEM HID/Xenon headlights in my 2005 New Beetle. They are great. If you find a set in the junk yard, you'll want the ballasts, headlights, and any wiring you can get.
I bought my connectors and wires and fabricated my own wiring harness. It's a good amount of work and time, but fairly straightforward.
Wiring the manual leveling rheostat is not a problem.
One thing I did find after wiring my headlights up, when I would turn the high beams on, then off, they wouldn't go off. To fix this I wired a small bulb off the right side high beam socket.
If you run in to problems, drop me a PM. I don't check too often here on NewBeetle.org, but check stuff pretty regularly on tdiclub.com.
Eric
