      Wired up the headlights today :)

      HID kit:






      Take the black/blue wire out of the suction cup thing and seal up the holes



      Hook up the ballast like this:



      Drill a hole in the headlight cap (1 inch)



      Put bulb in



      Take apart the sealed beam adapter:



      Figure out which wire is power and which is ground (brown). There should be three wires (low beam). One is the power, one is ground, and the other you won't be needing.



      Hook up the black wire to ground and the blue wire to the power wire



      Hook up the rest of the headlight/ballast



      The other wire (blue/white) is the one you won't be needing...go ahead and use a wire nut on the end of it for protection



      Both low beams on





      For the high beams I'm running the same HID kit. The wiring is the same procedure (the only difference is that there will only be 2 wires that plugged into the original sealed beam....one is ground, brown, and the other is power)


      I also jumped the relay (#30) so that I could run the high beam and the low beam at the same time





      Adjusting the cutoff:




      All done and cleaned up

            You electrical taped the connection you made from the sealed beam housing, yeah? Just making sure ;)

            Still technically an open connection that'll short with water on it.
            Need a part? PM me.
