It's pretty simple. Take off the bumper, then the headlights. Take out the bulbs. Take apart the headlight, by either the oven method or the hair drier method. Screw in the projectors. Put the headlights back together and reseal very well with some window sealant, again either oven or hair drier. Plug in harnesses into the ballast and adjust cut-off as needed. That should be the general outline. Mike can give more details if needed.

I could but every time i try to do something my self something goes wrong lol

Kaotic Lazagna · 08-06-2009, 01:14 AM

Ah, just don't think about it, and be optimistic. hehe. You can also have a Yaris member near you help you.

Camell, did you try to connect the parking/pole light wires to the harness provided from the JDM headlight? this projector deserved an "Angel Eyes"! don't let them wasted! :)

JeremyG · 08-06-2009, 11:26 AM

hmm I have a plan. But be prepare to sacrifice your OEM wiring. (if anything goes wrong, an electric tape shall repair the whole thing :D)

Take this OEM harness (as pic below) and cut the pole light wire to expose the inner part...

then connect them to the harness provided with the JDM housing...

I'll try them on my car this Saturday but if it really helps... you owe me a cup of tea! :D

Kaotic Lazagna · 08-06-2009, 01:48 PM

Oh, hehee, I was thinking it was simple since I don't really have a problem opening and resealing my headlights. haha, I guess I got overly excited in posting. Anywho, GL to those who will be attempting this.

Oh, and that sucks about the adjusting part.

JumpmanYaris · 08-06-2009, 02:47 PM

I guess I can just get some cheap headlights from some website and open that set i really dont want to fuk my original pair i think i seen em for like $80 for a single one v.s. the price from the dealership they want over $100 for just one

IllusionX · 08-07-2009, 12:06 AM

Yeah for my sake i get it right the 1st time that would be sweet.
Peter I am going to take a picture of the wheels and you can tell me

JeremyG · 08-08-2009, 09:18 AM

Camelll, I've done my retro for the projector. CCFL rings works just like what i've mentioned on previous page by simply connect the two wires together. Very happy with the light beam and the cut-off was superb!!!! Here's some pic.

JumpmanYaris · 08-08-2009, 11:22 PM
