I bought my gf the h4 upgrade kit off of ebay and i had the flickering problem with it so i bought her the Matrix upgrade harness. Now i installed the harness and im having a different problem. The driver lights come on but the passenger side im having problems with. The high beam is REALLY deam and the Low beam DOESNT come on at all!

Read through the thread this has been covered already.

My advise to you is cut your losses use the housings and get real HIDs. You are going to buy them is a few months anyway so just get it now.

rs camaro92

You just need to order the the relays for it. thats what mine did at first. call the maker of the lights and they can tell you more but my driver side was the only one working also so they sent me a relay kit for it and they work fine now.

CamaroBarbie91

well the matrix harness has relays with it... i bought her the whole kit then turned around and bought the matrix harness with the relays and all...

I picked up a set of these for my hid kit... The light quality is great and the glass lenses are durable... Only complaint I have, is that the rear of the housing is semi thin plastic and over time and heat exposure this could cause some issues... Besides that, they are a great buy and I didn't even have to use the adaptors they supply you with; my hids plugged right in to the stock harness...

iTrader: (2)

Did you get an HID kit? If so, where?

I have these but I need something brighter.

CamaroBarbie91

can someone please help me with this problem?? why would the lights be doing what they are? she has the matrix wire harness and the driver light work but the passenger ones dont...

Ehh!!! You stole my fog lights!!! haha

www.xenondepot.com

It's going to re-direct you to a site called "kbcarstuff", I picked up the 6500k kit... If you do purchase from this site, put "GMT" (stands for General Motors Truck) into the coupon code box and you get $25 off your order...

Jiggle the harness around, sometimes the connections are a lil weak...

rs camaro92

Hmm well the only other thing i did to mine was cut the original headlight connections off and put a newer connection on and i cut the top wire off of the connection on the high beam lights. have you done that.

CamaroBarbie91

well i got the harness to work but now theres another problem. Idk if its su[ppose to be like this or not and i doubt it is. I got the harness to work but it stays on the HIGH beams ALL the time, you can flip the switch to change it from high to low and it flashes but still stays on the high beams. Could the relays that came with the Matrix wiring harness be bad??

rs camaro92

so wait are the low beams and the high beams on like both housings are lit?? if so i know what to do. im in florida right now though but when i get back ill show you how mine is set up if this is what is happening to your lights.

Your high beam switch could be bad. My car does the same thing. If I switch to highbeams, and try to get the lows back on. The lows will flash but the highs remain on until I mess with the switch a few times.

Sorry if this was answered somewhere within the 7 pages, but I started to lose feeling in my eyes somewhere around page 3...

What bulb are you guys using for your high beams? Are you using H4s, or is there a single-filament equivalent available that fits the same housings? I thought the H1 was the single filament equivalent, but in looking at them last night, they're a totally different shape and won't work in these housings.

CamaroBarbie91

Yes the high and lows are both lt up at all times!! the switch is messed up a lil bit cause turning on the blinkers are kinda tricky and to turn on the high beams when the stock headlights were in you had to let the streeing wheels up cause they wont swap over with it down. now the lights wont change at all they stay on high all the time both the high beams are lit and low beams are lit up at all time!!!

Ive read the thread and im considering buying 2004momos headlights, but i think i want to get real hids. im thinking about getting the 8000k xenons should i get the 8000k for both my low and highs?

krisb410

iTrader: (9)

Yes, I would get matching HIDs, IMO, 8000K are to blue. I started at 4300K and went to 6000K.

joshrobison

so you would suggest 6000k, sounds good

I'm running the 6500k kit and they look Amazing!! I'll try to get a vid or pic of emm tonight...

I am running 8000K on my car and they are amazing there is no need to get them for you high beams because you will never need to use them. Get the momo kit and use the adapters for the high beams.

Where in NY are you. I got my HIDs from www.gothidxenon.com call them at 347.298.5094 ask for Brian and tell him Glen sent you. He is located in Queens Village and a lot of people from my club have puirchased the HIDs from him and never a problem.

I live in the Rochester area. So i should buy momos kit then buy a 8000k kit?

goomaan

iTrader: (2)

I want to say yes but I feel you will be wasting your money. All you really need is the conversion for 2 lights and then the housings for the other two.

krisb410

iTrader: (9)

I dunno about the rest of you that only did the low beams. But the saying goes, "Don't knock it till you've tried it.", applies here.

BTT: Having both the hi and low beams HID is awesome. I swear with the hi's, it's as good, or better, then the 7 100watt KC Highlighters I had on my 78 Blazer. I feel much safer, I can see deer way down the road! Plus HID kits are getting pretty cheap, might as well.

Where can I find the clear Markers/parking lights???

i think ebay as well. but they are getting pricier

joshrobison

well i got all the stuff in the mail the momo kit and the harness. id thought i just try the momo kit just for the hell of it and they had the flashing problem..no surprise there i guess. Anyways my question is regarding the harness..sorry i may be a moron but what exactly do i do with it

19Chevrolet84

from that website, is that all you need just whatever color/kit you want?

i got my clear sides off ebay they were like 25-35 bucks TOPS iirc

DAREDEVIL 1

Thats where i just orderd mine, complette light set in christal clear with markers and driving lights !!!!

150 bucks , shipping incl.

I think thats fair for all 8 lights , incl wiring and bulbs/LED's......

where did you get diamond clear parking lamps ? I have 90 Rs vert .those would look sooo sweet.

They were an Ebay find!

I got a set of the Pilot Halo lights from ebay w/ H4 bulbs. I rec'd 4 lights (2 sets) and 6 H4 bulbs. Don't know why I got 2 extras, figured it was my lucky day. Just testing on a spare battery it's AMAZING the difference in light output. If you are replacing the sealed beams, just spend the cash- it's only a few dollars more than 'el cheapo' sealed beams when it's all said and done.

I also am fabbing up a relay and wiring harness. I might have some extra $$ into it, but I've had 1 electric fire in the past, and see it as cheap insurance since:

1. I don't like fires
2. I don't like fires in my car
3. I don't like fires in my car with myself, wifey, or daughter in it
4. The wiring is 25 years old, and I needed something to spend some more time on.

I got mine on ebay from racing_guys. Slow to get it shipped, but they made it fast when they finally got out.

Also, I didn't need to modify my buckets.....all I had to do was bend the 2 tabs/wings on the back side out so I could fit the wiring harness onto the bulb. Hopefully I'll have the drivers side and wiring done this weekend.

Have to go in a few minutes, mind linking or pming me the ebay listing or any live ones? Just what I need atm

iTrader: (5)

I was going to have Gary over at www.InnovativeWiring.com make me and others for the website a headlight harness for H4 bulbs reaching up to 150W. I am using 90/100W bulbs and will be sending him the APC 4 headlight harness to copy but make better (When I need my headlights in for sure), as right now I'll be driving without them. Just thought maybe dropping him an e-mail, he may be able to do this for everyone. I just got some custom battery cables from him as well. Beefy MF'rs. Great work and quick to assemble and ship. Took him only 2 days to assemble and ship from time of sent payment. Cables coming soon, I will post mine on the thread below.

Here is the thread about his work.

Where Did you find that kit?

was that from the same seller? it looks like the same lights

Caveman305

iTrader: (8)

they even have a combo with smoked markers and turns, thats exactly what i was looking for

jliner

I just order the following, which I considered the best value combo:

1. Set of clear headlights without city lights (I hate them): 4 lamps with H4 bulbs = $50 (including shipping) from ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/82-92...item3a58f923d6

Obviously they're not projectors.

2. Matrix 01-133 conversion harness = $34.99 (including shipping) from Summit

So, you'll have a plug and play combo for $85.

I liked it over the ebay 2004momo and neondials vendors on the fact that the lamps are cleaner - you can see that mine have like three horizontal "sections" or lines while the 2004momo and neon dials have 5. Also you get a better conversion harness without the need of modifications.

Glad I found this thread, I'll be doing the conversion on my car shortly! Very nice.

I would love to get these lights in the car. But I think I am going to wait a little while until the price comes down just a little. But man they sure look good. The blue lights look the best.

Has anyone tried the Matrix projector headlights from summit? I think they run about $32 a pop.

CaliChevyLover

they are not projectors and they are junk.
