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? |

Yeah, what Silly97 said - the high beams don't change with the projectors, but our low beams are H1... So just make an adapter cable using a male HB4 and female H1 for the low beams, and similar for the high beams, and you will be good to go - All the wiring is doing is feeding it 12V, so it doesn't matter what plug type is on the end. If you want to go HID then you can just wire those plugs into the ballast. --------------------  SOLD :( 1997 ST204 Celica ZR -----> See it here on 6GC! 2013 October Celica of the Month XD Now: '00 NB8B Mazda MX5 -----> See it here in off topic! |
