HID finally installed

Post by xrs06 »

Had a bit of free time before christmas (sent gf to buy all the gifts...) so decided to install my HID. On the first try, it wouldn't work so did a bit of troubleshooting but to no avail. Decided to call the seller and set an appointment at his place (Laval). After about an hour of fooling around trying different light, ballast, wires, we finally found the problem: On the connector of the HID light, the black and the red were not installed properly. All of the light he had, they were all installed the wrong way so had to sand the inside of the connector to be able to turn the connector around and plug it the right way. Also had to make my fog my new running daylight, and made the 9006 to 9005 conversion on the fog. Decided to make it a bit special by buying JDM yellow Nokya for high beam (9005) and the same for fog (9005). Let's say that the result at night is quite something. JDM yellow Nokya 9005 conversion "running day-fog" http://photobucket.com/albums/...3.jpg HID 4500K and JDM yellow Nokya 9005 conversion "running day-fog" http://photobucket.com/albums/...9.jpg HID 4500K, JDM yellow Nokya 9005 highbeam and JDM yellow Nokya 9005 conversion "running day-fog" http://photobucket.com/albums/...c.jpgBTW, those pictures were taken christmas morning... What do you guys think?

Nice pics. I have 6000k lows and fogs. Still trying to find a place to mount another set of ballasts for 3000k highs I miss the snow...
