Guys, Just wondering where can I install my HID Light Kits in Perth?

Thanks

If it's a simple plug-and-play, you can do it yourself. It's pretty easy and self-explanatory.

Nope, doesn't seem like it needs anything else. However, contact the seller to make sure. But again, it looks like it includes everything you need. I like how it uses Philips bulbs. You shouldn't have a problem with that. However, I don't know where the ballast is manufactured. I'm betting that that kit is better than the HID kit I have.

If it doesn't come with an installation manual, let us know. It's pretty simple, plug the lead into the ballast (doesn't matter which way with an H4, meaning + to + or + to -, I had to invert mine to + to - to get it to work), then plug the other cables to it's proper mate (mine were a 6000k cable and a high beam cable, I believe), then plug in the 3-prong connector to the car's socket (you know, the socket that a regular bulb plugs into).

The only hard part would be getting the bulb into the rubber plug/sleeve. I had to cut mine to put it through. Now I get condensation in my headlights every now and then.

Yeah, you should do that for the OP. Too late for me. LOL.

Thanks for the advice and I will let you know after I received the kit :)

I think you should read all over my post again -.-''

eBay the answer

lunjiaow · 11-20-2008, 08:36 AM

oops my bad.... looks pleasing.
You could hide the ballast under the headlights, thats what i did for my other cars.
Makes it stock looking, and if the cops pull you over they wont be able to spot it to give you a yellow.

What do you mean by this? you reversed the connection going to the ballast? I got a set for my friend's 08 Yaris and he said its not working right.

marcus · 01-20-2009, 11:41 AM

our car has reverse grounding system.. hope its plug and play otherwise you may need to switch some wires..

bimmerman86 · 01-24-2009, 07:55 PM

Ok, my friend reversed the wires to get the lights to work. Problem is that they flicker and don't stay on. The only way to get the HIDs to stay on is if he runs them as high beams, but then the halogen bulb has no function. Can someone explain to me how to reposition the wires to get the HIDs to function as low beam and the halogen as high beams? I feel bad getting him the kit and not be able to help him to rsolve the problem. I want to at least get him good info.

drl is causing the flicker for low beam you either take the drl relay of or or relay the low beam instead . that relay and fuse should come with the hid kit..
