They were plug-n-play for me. Hooked up the wires and everything worked fine. Most of the new ones have a load resistor built in to compensate. That is assuming you buy the whole light. If you are just trying to replace the bulb, that might be an issue.

Also, if you are thinking about headlights, you have to have a housing that is totally clear like most new cars have. It cannot have lines in it like a sealed beam or like many Hella replacement housings. If you have housings with lines cut/molded in them, Phillips make a bulb (can't remember name) that mimics LED bulbs and is extremely bright when used with relays.
