Today i got home from school open the mail and bam! a package i was soo excited

i finally got me hid lights conversion kit today tomorrow after work im going to attempt to install them there 10000k bi-xenon hid's

I will be posting hopefully some process pictures while im doing it.. my dad is helping me install them so i don't know.. he gets a little ancy when i do **** to my car... and doesn't want to wait for me taking pictures.... but i going to be doing this after i get off work around 5 pm central time!!

wish me luck!

 

Its past 5 central its 9 here in cali so thats like 11 there, where are the pictures

 

i doing it today after i get off work i'll post some before and after pictures of my lights to i took a picture of my stock beams on high and low going down the highway to my girlfriends house... i will do the same when it turns night time to see the difference. only question i have at the moment.. for the installation kit it only showing that i need one plug in for the stock to power both of them? is that correct?!?!


and if that is true.. i can just buy another h4 installation kit and do the same to my inner set of lights... and hopefully all four of them will turn on for high and low that be soooo sweet

 

That would be sweet, im not sure as far as the power thing, but as long as it has juice and a ground I see no reason why it wouldnt work !

 

Yes for the harness all it needs is to plug into one stock low or bright plugs(whichever you want the HIDs to be) All this does is trigger the relay to give power to the ballasts, and let there be light!!


EDIT: i see their bixenon so they will be both high and low. dissregaurd the high low comment

 

low beams ( stock )


High beams ( stock )


what the head lights look like compared to old ones

 

Sorry the car has to much rock damage and its been a dirty girl



up close shot... sorry for the blurry picture




after installation... ( seems like there more light on the right of the car then left?)


high beams with still stock high beams.... hopefully getting these to change soon!!!



front view... still freaking blinding

 

how much was it and how hard is it to install

 

Same questions as JR
Dude that looks sick
You can adjust it, but ppl will probably think you have your brights on.
Mine are slightly off to the right as well,

Awesome job!

 

the conversion kit was $150 the installation wasn't hard at all it was pretty simple.

only thing i hate is that i cannot find a good place to mount that ballast and the relay.... and i got stumped because when i tested the lights i didn't have my car running low beams worked fine when i switched to high beams they just kept clicking they relay kept going off and on. so i went online and found out i had a weak battery... so umm i decided to start my car lol and it worked now.

and funny story... i was going over to a friends to show him my lights and he wasn't home so i was going to mainstreet and on the way i seen a cop and i was like oh sheet.... cause he was slowing down and stopping. luckily he was doing something else anyways on mainstreet i was going down the road and some chic yelled out the window " TURN YOUR F*CKING HIGH BEAMS OFF!" i just started laughing


i will get some pictures during the day time to

 

where did you get your kit from?

 

This is were i bought my conversion kit

http://www.xenonlink.com/

 

were did you get those headlights i want some like that

 

Wow those look sweet. Id love to get some but NY is very strict on traffic laws. I got pulled over in my winter car and all i had was sylvania's ultra vision or something like that. I got off free tho(i knew the cops brother )

 

well it snowed out last night and when i started my car to turn on my headlights i notice that not much light was going through to see anything.. until i noticed that there was snow covering me lights.. i thought it looked cool so i took a picture with my cell phone.

Anyways today on my way back from dropping my girlfriend off from one town to another is 8 miles.... well i got a kick out of it because in that 8 miles 5 people flashed there high beams at me because mine are on low beam? lol good fight but i laughed and flashed them back



and jr350tpi

here is the link http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...%3AIT&viewitem there sold seperate

 

which head light housings did you end up getting?

EDIT: nevermind i guess i cant read lol

 

same ones as you :P ok so another story... while going to the store to get some food one of my freinds ( who is a town cop ) called me and asked me what kind of lights i have and she ( yes a she, i wouldn't mess with her :P she played in pro womens football ) anways i said hid lights and she told me quote " holy ****! i need to get me a pair of those " i laughed lol


i made up my mind im buying another h4 set to put in my two inner head lights so all four lights will be on and they will be all high and low !!!! look sweet my only concern is will my battery hold all four of them on high and low?

I won't be getting them until late this month or next month little short on cash atm

 

Thank you

 

your welcome

 

Its the alternator that runs everything electrical while the engine is running, battery just sits there and charges for the next start, or for use of electrical things when the engines not running.

At the sake of sounding like an a-hole, it's not a very cool (or funny) thing at all to just blind other drivers on the road all the time...

I mean dont get me wrong, they look great and I'm sure they work great, but did y'all adjust the headlight housings properly so that they are not pointing to far up and pointing at oncoming traffic instead of the road?

I understand better lighting, but not at the inconvenience of other drivers. You could hurt someone if they are not properly adjusted at that brightness...

 

i under stand that.. i do need adjust mine a bit.... when i get my other ones

 

Sorry to say it probably wont matter. By the time you adjust those housings so you arent blinding people as bad, your lights wont be as good as a nice set of H4 halogen bulbs aimed properly. The'll be pointed pretty far down towards the ground. Youre gonna get people flashin you when you hit bumps, are going up a hill, or are accelerating hard.

There is just no way to make HID bulbs work in conversion halogen housings properly. I dont care what housings you have, what bulbs you have, or how hard someone tries to convince me that its not blinding people.

Not knocking your set up...I just hate to see improperly set up lights. There ARE some factory cars that have HID bulbs in reflector style housings. However they are cut so they do a fairly good job of knocking the glare down. But they are still annoying to look at in my opinion. To get the full benefit of HID bulbs, and not throw glare off in every direction, you really should look into a set of projectors. Since your car has separate high beams, you dont have to go with a bi-xenon projector...which means you can get smaller units. Which in turn makes them pretty easy to fit and install. Then either run a higher wattage halogen high beam (better for long distance) or another projector and HID bulb. I have FX-35 bi-xenon projectors that Im fitting into my TA...got them with bulbs and ballasts super cheap. Cheaper than the HID "kid" that I got from a sponser on tech.

I could be wrong about your lights...its kinda hard to tell from the pics. But the one pic shows def glare. I messed with a set of H4 housings with HID bulbs and was amazed at how much light was spread everywhere when i pulled up to a white wall or garage door. And I know you said you were going to aim them... I just hope you can aim them enough to not be too "glary" and still throw nice light down the road.

Gettin off my HID rant now. haha.a... Again...no offense on your light upgrade!

J.

 

its alright... i do nneed to aim them down some cause when ai go down main my lights are shining off some of the reflector signs on the stop lights... i just need to do it on a nice day... been cold lately for me even to try anything

 

Ill second that. This cold weather is BS. Im ready for spring...or enough money to build my own heated garage. haha.

J.

 

What engine does your car have is that LS series engine

 

i have a question..... i notice when i switch to my high beams my hid lights don't change.... are the ones i bought low and high or just low?

 

True HID bulbs arent high or low...they're just a bulb. The projector handles where the light goes. An HID in a straight up projector, such as a TSX projector, will just be low beam. High beams are usually a set of halogen bulbs that come on along with the HID lows. Bi-xenon lights use the same bulbs, but there is a solenoid that moves the cut off shield to basically eliminate cut off. Sometimes those systems have an extra set of halogens....but the main highs are the HID bulb.

In your camaro, the way I would have them work is, HID bulbs as lows...and the inner halogens as highs...with the HID bulbs staying on. They remain constant. When you flick to high, the HID set just stays on and doesnt flicker or change at all.

J.

 

oh ok.. do there going to be on low beam all the time?

 

Im not positive how the camaro lights work. Do their low beams go off with the high beams?

If it were me...I would wire the lights up so the low beams were on all the time. Reason being... HID bulbs take alittle bit to warm up. You really dont want to be turning them on and off constantly. I read somewhere its not that great for them either.

Thats how most newer cars work. The non-bi-xenon cars anyway...

J.

 

yea the low beams stay on all the time when i turn them to high and low beam.... and when the high beam is turned on all four of them light up

 

ok well today i was looking at them and it appears once i turn my headlights on my high beams are already on... when i switch to high beam they stay on high beam... then when i switch them back to low there still on high.... however, sometimes my driver side goes to low beam when i turn them on but my passenger side doesn't... but once i go to high beam it will be stuck on high beam... whats the problem with this? did i mess something up while i was installing them or what?

 

anybody?

 

i really need to get this fixed and i would hate to take it into a shop and get it fixed

 

radical HID set up dude

 

Hella E-Code H-4 lenses, with my Bi-Xenons throw no glare and give me approximately double or a little bit more of light projection. No projector at all. I live in NY as well, but people here like to steal other peoples stuff, so I don't rock projecters, just E-code lenses. And as for highs, why not keep the stock lighting setup except using an H-1 conversion with a good Halogen H-1 bulb, reason for halogen being they don't have "warm-up" time, and you have no ballast to beat up.

 

actually i not even going to have a high beam there just going to be lenses thats all i not going to connect them yet im still thinking on something for them

 

Take off the backs, drill holes in the front, and use them for fresh air directly underhood?

 

i got a ss hood so it works lol

 

Plus i going to put hid lights were the grill is... what ever there called..

 

if not i can put my high beams down below were the grill is to? and still just have another set of bulbs inserted in the high beam spot but yet not on that would work wouldn't it?

 

more the merrier

 

lol yea i need to figure out whats wrong with my current ones again.. so far no good explanation my thread explaining it is called High beam - shut off? under the same thread... good thing i have a extra set up... just wish i can get these ones working again though
