Video is great. I wish you had one showing the X6 install in such great detail. I really like the HID, I was comfortable changing the angel eyes but the HID seems more complicated.

Seriously guys, they're not that difficult to fit. Although mine are still temporarily installed it only took me about 30 minutes!

There is a black metal post that the engine starter point is mounted, the fuse holder is mounted right on that post.

I've added a label to the photo!

Yes, the power is taken from under the red cap. The fuse protects the HID harness so is in line with the 12 volt source. The ground for the HID kit is taken from the large nut which is used for the jumper cable, you can see the HID ground cable in photo 3.

Nice set-up. Can I just buy the wiring harness since I already have an HID kit?
