    Stupid question

    Hi I just bought a set of ellipsoids and i am curious of what all i need to switch my old lights.
    I have the pigtail conversions but wasn't sure if there is anything i need before i put them in.

    P.S. if anyone has a driver side high beam lens and metal cover i am interested in buying

    Thanks

    Just need to splice in the pigtails to the wires and, this should be obvious but, make sure you have bulbs and power going to your lights. As long as you have the right connectors, they should be plug and play once you have the wires spliced

        Pin 30 to 30 on relays K3 and K4 (if I remember correctly, you might want to double check) to keep the lows on with the highs:



        And the sealed beams are dual filament so you have high and low power running to each low beam bulb, just tape off the extra.

          Honestly I built it just to have a place to sit and listen to Hotline Bling on repeat.

            I just fanned out the stripped ends of a piece of stranded wire and stuck them into the appropriate sockets before pressing in the relays. No problems since I installed them a couple years ago.

            That said, I cannot be held responsible if you die in a horrible car fire.
