What is this about ?

I got a used set of headlights and want to swap the internals from my headlights.... does this warning label mean "do not unscrew these four bolts" or does it mean "do not open this square metal thing" ???
 
That is the high voltage ballast for HID (High Intensity Discharge) headlamps used on newer cars, like the C-6. I believe you can pull the 4 mounting screws, but don't try to open the box.
 
That's what I am hoping... the pair of black headlights that I bought are only the housings, I have to swap the internals from my blue headlights... incl. this ballast.... hopefully I'm not going to kill myself in the process, never seen warning labels like this on headlights :amused::amused:
