Still wai5ing to c them on the car

I had a chance to test out the lamps and wired in the Halo's.



Its not all the way in. Theres a bit of metal on the slam panel obstructing the backing which I need to cut away.
I also need to get some Male HB3 and HB4 plugs which I've no idea where to get hold of. I bought females off ebay by mistake.

Our cars already have the 9005 and 9006 though, unless your car came with projectors. Even then you'd still have the 9005 for the highs.

Anyway I think part of the problem is sellers on eBay have their nomenclature backwards. Found this that has both connectors and both the 9005 and 9006: http://www.ebay.com/itm/9006-9005-Male-Wir...ff7&vxp=mtr Two of them and you'll be good to go.

The problem is the lamps I made has no plugs hence why I need hb3 & hb4 plugs so I can just plug it to my car and not cut the loom.

He meant use the female part of the adapters and splice them in place of the hb3/hb4 plugs on the lights so they plug straight in to our 9005/9006 plugs.

Thats my original plan but I dont have any female parts of the HB3/HB4 as it's on the actual bulb it self.
Ive been looking for them online but can't find any apart from the ones Box showed in the link but its kind of a waste as I only need 1 end.

You see I bought these by mistake
http://www.ebay.com/itm/9006-HB4-9005-HB3-...5e9&vxp=mtr

but it's the opposite plug I needed which people dont sell on their own.

You're going to ditch the hb3/hb4 style plug altogether. Get the 9005/9006 connectors here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/9006-9005-Male-Wir...ff7&vxp=mtr and cut the unneeded end off and crimp these on: http://www.ebay.com/itm/350674532564 which will connect directly to the bulb... Just remember to run the wires through the rubber cap first.

These are the ones I bought for my car;

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2-PCS-Wiring-Ha...b8ac&_uhb=1

I just cut them in half and used one side of them and connected the other side to the pigtails of my projectors..... wasteful yes, but cheaper than anything else that I could find! (Or more to the point, I couldn't find anywhere else)

Yep. Found a cheap source in the uk and just bought 2 pairs for high and low beam.

Here you go. Halo's wired up. Just waiting for the other HB3/4 cables.

Thats a very nice upgrade. Good job. Only the gap of the high beams looks unnatural. I prefer 2 holes where you can create 1 gap for the airfilter and 1 gap for engine cooling. But again a great job

Wow those seem to fit exceptionally well!
Good Job!

Thanks.
Yeah I wasnt too sure about the gap too. So I used a piece of vinyl and covered one to see how it is.
I agree it doesn't look very good.
1 is to be used as a cold air feed and I am in the process of making a funnel the the induction.
The other I will mount the oil cooler where the lamp used to be and just mesh the hole.
It will still have a un-symmetrical look but I think I'd like it to be so.

Makes me wonder as to what it'd look like with the high beam recesses filled in and made flush with the bumper.

I always thought about doing this but with the center lamps and deleting the low beams so it will look like a bugeyed sprite-

Yes but doesnt it look happy thought?

Im making the two inners into air feeds at the moment.

bad.

Cold air feed and oil cooler
