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:

The way I secured my globe was just to bend the retaining clip wire, so that it pushes against the globe. I recently changed HID kits (went from 35W 8000K to 50W 6000K = teh winnar!) and I tried the plastic clip method, but the biggest problem I see with that would be heat. With my method, the globe isn't going anywhere any time soon

celicume: Have you tried swapping the globes around? Sometimes the globes fail and you get light/dark spots. That's what I found with my old kit.

The left globe ( how you said) i think fit good because if i touch it, its firm! The right instead, i secured in the same moods............the globe seems firm but the light reflects on a wall make another design compared to the left!!! Its normal??? Probably the globe have some problems? I will try to exchange left with right.............
