My how to: install HID for JDM Projectors, my experience installing HID Options

[LewFX]

Special thanks goes to first my gf (Becky) who bought these for my birthday..and everyones favorite: John aka Myzneyes and Chanh

Disconnect the positive terminal...

First was getting the bulbs in:
have the blue piece go in the side slot. bulb slides in easy.


save your plastic washer that comes with the bulb and this is why...without this your bulb isnt secure but i used the plastic washer and cut it into a C shape:


next put washer behind bulb harness like this:


should be nice and secure like this:


next hook up the connectors thats with the relay, use the existing H1 harness (pop off the exisitng rubber piece) and plug in the 2 connectors from relay...do this on the drivers side.

next mount the relay and the ballast somewhere...heres where i did mine. plug in rest of wires, negative and positive, etc etc



next is the passenger side: because i have abs, i wedged it between the abs and in the frame.


plug positive back on...should be easy from here..heres my finished results, night pics will be on later:

I've been running HID's in my projectors for a couple of years now. Per this thread, I've always used the plastic ring that came with my HID bulbs but at any given point in time, one bulb will sit properly and the other wants to sit crooked in the housing. I've decided to give these a try.



They're adapters that hold the H1 HID bulb for a Honda, and make it sit properly like a regular H1 bulb. For only $7, it's not a huge loss if they don't work, but I suspect they'll work better than trimming the plastic ring that came with the HID bulbs. I should have them next week and I'll get them fitted ASAP.
