I just noticed this about my dodge neon light I made for my faff.
The Gen 6 uses HB3 for high and HB4 for low beams. The Neon lamps I made has H1 12V 55Watts on both high and low. Now I only know of H1 bulbs being used on HID's. So in order for me to connect this up to my faff, do I need to buy HID ballasts? Im thinking the actual dodge neon cars had ballasts built in? Or can I just join the stock wires up to this? |

HB1 ones aren't only HID bulbs. So if you wanted to skip the whole putting in ballasts and adding new wires yada yada just buy regular halogen bulbs.
