Honestly, highbeams look like a candlelight compared to the HID. Is anyone converting the highbeams as well? I thought the same thing, but running the highs along with the HIDs works real well. I'm thinking of upgrading the H1s that came with the lights to a silverstar or something similar, just to...

I know shit-all about diodes. How's that work?

Black is the ground.

When I got mine the reg H1 bulbs were in the lights, and the HID kit was packed in a white foam, umm... packing... in one of the light boxes. The ballasts are about 4x3x1 plus a bunch of wire.

I'll weigh in on these puppys now that I've used 'em for a few days. I have a few minor gripes. I had a problem with the leds as well, I tested 'em before I mounted the lights and everything was cool, then after I installed them 3 went out. So I yanked all of 'em and made sure the wires were lined u...

Jutzi420 - Looking very nice. I have always been a fan of your car.. I probably saw it on cardomain a few years ago. Keep it up! Car is minty. Nice to hear someone's a fan, doesn't seem like that long ago I started out here and was wishin my car was as nice as all the senior members. Jutzi420 did y...

I made up a wire harness for my HIDs when I installed 'em with a couple relays. One so I could send the ballasts power through some 14ga right from the battery, and one so the Lows would stay on with the Highs. I was gonna scan my diagram for it and post it here yesterday but I left it at work :roll...

we want them now! =P

Now Now Now!

Got mine in, 18 feet of 14 guage and 2 relays and a spray-bomb of Krylon gloss black later. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3355/3335834083_f45b8089bc_b.jpg http://www.flickr.com/photos/29622478@N03/3335834083/in/set-72157614864210931/ http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3305/3335824793_6fc13b19a2_b.jpg h...

I'll have to check my mom's 6. I was pretty sure it had a separate high.

Naw, my van is 9005/9006.

I was kinda wondering about how legal it'd be. Do cars with factory HIDs and separate highs leave the HIDs on with the High beam?

that diagram is key. I always keep a few of those relays on hand. I actually just wired my work van headlights like that this afternoon, I wanted more light at night when I throw my highs on. It was also a dry run for when my projectors show up.

Second one says 01 and up, so I doubt it'd work. First one has two connectors? Is that right? I dunno, mine have been in a landfill somewhere since about 2002 I think.

Solder, and heatshrink are cheaper, and more compact. Give it a go if you're feeling adventurous. I started off with harnesses, then ended up splicing cause of imaptience and inability to find the right harness :wink: It's not as hard as it seems, only real plus for harnesses is if you're planning o...

Now that's more like it, sounds like my kinda of body work. Might hafta think about gettin one of those next time I've got some cash to blow. Well, next, next time maybe. Next time I think I might hafta get a CF hood, my current OEM is in disgusting shape right now and I don't feel like fixing it.
