HID Projectors

[Unit453]

I bought these OEM projectors months ago and had to buy a $170 wiring harness to make them work as factory.

Yesterday, at 73 degrees, 3 of us finally got them installed. What a royal pain right in the balls. I had to take the entire front clip off to remove the whole housings. What was supposed to be a 30 minute project, turned into a 3 hour venture, with lots of swearing, dropping tools and scraping up hands and arms. All this for 'better lights'....

If I could do this all over again, I would've said screw it and not even bothered.

Before and after shots.

I love good projectors. You get a good cut off with them?

 

[Unit453]

It's good. I had to adjust them way down. Lighting is good on dark roads. My fogs actually out out good light as well. I'm not super impressed but then again, most roads here have excessive street lighting.


Also, there's a problem with the harness because my highbeam shutter doesn't work. I've already emailed the company I bought it from.

Cut off is sharp and very distinct.

Here's how to Aim Projectors just right.

You if you just Eyeballed them, when you do it this way, you may be Shocked at how "Off" they are.

When I had the Projectors on my Dodge I Eyeballed them to where they Looked Good, then did it this way and got ALOT more Light on the Ground and more Distance.

You forget something?:hihi:

I parked in front of a brick wall and used the tool to aim them both together. I got flashed prior to doing so but I knew as soon as I got out onto the road, I was gonna be flashed. As much as I like lighting up the tops of trees, I dont think the public enjoyed that.

Looks good... I love the distinct cutoff and focus that projectors have.

 

[Unit453]

The company emailed me back and seems to think there's a problem with the harness. They offered to replace it but I'am absolutely not tearing off that god dammed front clip again. They think there's a problem with one of the relays that *should* make the shutters for the highbeams to work.

Ok, I give up... where's the "How To" instructions?
