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 received the adapters today. Test fitted with a broken old H1 HID bulb that I have sitting around, and I think that these will be a much more elegant solution to fitting HID's into our projectors. I took some comparison pictures of a regular halogen H1 bulb with the OEM bulb adapter so you guys can see what the OEM solution was compared to these adapters with an HID bulb.








Unfortunately I did not get a chance to install them today, since it's 4 degrees F outside and I have to leave for work in 8 minutes. I'll do my best to get them installed in the next few days and get pictures for you guys. So far, pending installation of course, I would highly recommend these over the plastic ring for HID installation.
