many thanx mate.
sent you a pm Tomasz.
Bye for Now!
How long does it normally take to convert? do people just use there cars without the headlights? as in not drive at night whilst its being done? im interested in doing this (after i get the car) just need to make sure i can.
Regards Sam
if someone is THAT concerned they could always pick up a 2nd hand set of headlights and use them to build with.Originally Posted by rixarena
day dreaming of 13b's , huge ports and suicide doors, and a few other things too I cant say here.
Exactly.
That way I did mine lights, and people I did conversion for also sourced spare pair of lights.
dude fab job you did....i want a set..problem im in Zambia (southern Africa). so sending your side problem...but sending this from your side cheap as hell...so can i paypal you some cash then you could buy a set to convert to projector? my car is RHD and we drive left side of the road....
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
the lights are very good i have many spare sets for sale.
Tomasz.. Are mine ready yet
the bi-xenon ones? how much for a set of them?
I'll probably do this to my JDM lights after a whilethanks for a great guide!

How does projectors work with normal halogen bulbs? The reason I am asking is that i want xenon in the high beam, but not in the short beam. This is due to norwegian regulations, and the fact that they stop alot of people nowadays with xenon mounted in non xenon headlighst. But i like the look of the projectors, so could i run both halogen and xenon and get good light? Or maybe just one projector for the high beam?
The one and only... Galant with PFL VR4 bumper complete with fogs and Super VR-4 canards in Norway
(unless you know otherwise)
Mods done: Eyelids, PFL VR-4 foglights, clear corner indicators and side indicators, VF-4 front strut brace, Custom rear strut brace, cusom "sports" air filter, lowered, custom sound system and Super VR-4 canards
You cant fit halogen bulbs in the G5 xenon projectors, the HID bulbs they use have a custom socket. Of course it is possible to install projectors just for the high beams, but if you only want xenons in the high beams it is easier to install a H1 conversion kit instead.

a bump for a old thread,
having just bought 2 of these kits... (G1 bi-xenon hid projector)
if i wanted to set up the lights to work same as stock,
a set of low beams and a set of high beams,
on the low beam i can just leave off the hi/lo controller? so its always lo
and high beam i can remove the cut off shield completely??
Of course it is possible to do it that way, but why would you like to remove the hi/lo function from the low beams? Cold xenons take a couple of seconds before they give full light output, so that means you will have delayed hi beam. With the hi/lo function in place you get instant high beam with the extra hi beams coming to full output a couple of seconds later. In the sets I have made I have not removed the cut off shield from the high beams, just connect it so that it opens when high beams are turned on
nz laws on head lights, restrict how many lights we can have running at one time,
and avoid W.O.F. and police issues, as it still a HID retro fit of sorts (a proper one)
some people can be hard to deal with even when its done right,
hard to explain why all your lights come on with you turn on low beam. when from factory they dont.
i will prob make the original low beam, do both hi/lo but the factory high beam will only be a high beam light
Understand you point Carsten. I remember when I was massively surprised reading about gauge pillar mounts being an issue whilst NZ MOT.
Anyway, if you want a stock set-up then you don't need full harness.
Just direct feed from low beam socket to HID ballast and then to low beam bulb. The same with high beam, but you need to remove internal pattern shield (diaphragm) from lenses.
If you got G1 type lenses then you shouldn't have a problem with fitting around black shroud inside headlight cluster. It need to be cut to size whilst using bigger G3 lenses.
yeah got the G1's one guy on ebay selling them now... USD$129 w/o ballast or USD$159 with ballast and free shipping
http://myworld.ebay.com/autoretrofit/
i bought one set to make sure they are correct (arrived today)
and have bought another set now so can do both hi and lo
if you offer him USD$100 w/o ballast and free shipping he accepts the offer
and ill buy ballast of another ebay trader for USD$8.95ea free shipping.
full hid conversion for less than USD$236 and D.I.Y. Labour
Yeah thats what I meant, think 4 low beams are illegal in most contries. And if you connect the high beam ballasts and solenoid to the high beam socket you dont have to remove the cut off shield either
Had the same concern about few years ago, but after careful check inside-out all EU regulation - it says NOTHING how many low beams are allowed.
Regulations says clear tho about dimensions, level, and location.
