mizlopi Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 ok ive just done mine, the manual i got wasnt that helpful so i thought id make this.would have put the pics on but my phones playing up1. Take the rubber cover off your headlight bulb, and disconnect the 3 pin plug on it.2. Take the bulb out and make the hole in the rubber cover a bit bigger so that the bulkier new hid bulb will fit through it.3.Then unscrew the chrome bulb protector, and fit that in the headlight, and lock it down with the headlight clip.4.Then replace the rubber cover, and put new hid bulb in and screw to tighten in place!5. Next get the ballasts should have two or three wires coming off one big plug which will plug into the big loom you get with the kit.6. All you do after you have both sides like this you can match the other wires in its easy from there!!7. You will have to earth it on each side, and wire the one near the battery up to the live and neg8. Check everythings plugged in (no loose plugs/wires) and try........Im not brilliant at describing lol nut im sure its better than that manual!!! these are 10000k: not as blue as id have thought....

lukEp Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 i think if they dont get left in theres to much light scatter and you'll end up blinding everyone coming the opposite way Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mizlopi Posted December 12, 2009 Author Share Posted December 12, 2009 Yea mate, i'de like to get some ideas on where to mount the ballasts, not alot of choice lolwhat i did because theres literally no room to screw it down, i just duck taped it round the washer filler bit and on the other side i duck taped it round my alarm. lol but its held it well, and just tidied up all the wires.(make sure on the offside light, the wires dont touch the powersteering pulley, because it will burn straight through it!!)

Raz Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 ahah, nice. And what exactly did you do with the wires, Where did you hide them?/Run them through etcI'm going to fit mine once it comes through lol, but untill then i want as much knowledge as possible, because sometimes i fail hard at stuff LoL Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Raz Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 I fitted mine on the other day in the snow! Ok all is good duct taped it and stuff. The beam is scattered all over the place lol, and it's still white not 12000K but they said it will take upto 50 hours to reach the promised colour etc.Any ideas about the beam scatter other then the fact the car headlight was built for halogen not HID stuff?
