HID Wiring Options

[CaliJeff]

I checked the old links and practically all the photos are dead. Effin A !
can anybody take some pix of their set up of the wiring? Thanks guys !

Btw, it would help a bunch if it was the same HID kit from the group buy people from culpable or griffgirl

h/o i think i have my pics still

couldnt find any. its simple. cut off that rubber stopper looking thing. take out the original bulb and put in the new one. the only thing you have to plug in is the original plug for the org lights into the hid one. honestly that is probably the worst explanation ever but it should work.

[CaliJeff]

even for the h1 bulb? I got the JDM projectors. Thats what I thought I do, but i'm still puzzled on a couple parts. There are 2 spade connectors which go through the rubber part and connect to another female bulb connector. What do I do with that guy. Do i wire one for ground and the other to the battery?

the bulb has a black rubber ring that holds a couple wires.


step 1 plug the 2 little plug to the ballast. ( they only fit one way, so no chance of messing up here )
step 2 there is a plug that will fit on the ballast ( again only one will fit, make sure you have the tabs that secure it in place all the way in and on the right side, one side has like a little block, while the other has a slice block ) < does that makes sense ?
step 3 on your case ( H1 ) you 'll have 2 wires with plated endings ( red and black ) these will go where you use to plug your H1 bulb. watch for the right polarity or the HID won't work.

you should be done at this point.


if you need more help. let me know, if extremely necessary I can take some pictures for you, but is cold outside and is 1 am in the morning so I don't want to right now

so i dont have to hook up any wires to the ground or to the battery?

on the other end of these two wires is another plug and i dont know where it does. any info?

the other end of those wires, goes to the ballast,

stock harness = red wire \ .....................>.[ } plug to ballast { } the thick wire fixed on the ballast has 2 small plugs at the end those go to the bulb
black wire /



you'd only need to hook up wires to the battery (+) and ground if you were to use a relay kit. if that's what you want the instructions involve a little more work and you have to get a relay kit from autozone or build one yourself for a couple bucks.

instructions for this are straight forward and can be found on the net.
