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?

This would just be the same procedure as when retrofitting the OEM projectors, would it not? (Many links in stickies)

Excited to see the finished product installed! biggrin.gif

Not exactly because the Celica projectors uses HB3 and HB4 bulbs. Where as teh Dodge Neon lights I have hybrid has H1 fittings inside meaning I should use H1 bulbs.
The question is, do they just connect up or do I need a ballast like HID's?
