Done some research on these but couldn't find the info I was looking for so I'm asking the community for help.
1. To my understanding the USDM low beam bulbs do not fit the projectors (9006 to H4? I think?) so as far as wiring goes do I just take the old wiring off and just resolder to the new ones or do I need a resistor or something in between to get the current down? 2. Does the high beam bulbs the same between USDM and projectors? Thanks -Dave |

My DDM kit uses those same plugs. However, at no point does my car's wiring touch the ballast. Both the 9006 and H1 HID bulbs plug into the car's wiring and then lead to the ballast. It's just how each manufacturer chooses to make their kit. That's why I'd love to get a list of which kits require the plug and play harness and which don't. So far we can confirm that the DDM kit requires the harness and the Xentec kit can be used as an adapter.
Quick edit: not my picture but you can see where the 9006 plug goes with the bulb, not the ballast. So with an H1 bulb from DDM, there is a need to convert the Celica's wiring to H1.
