has anyone found a solution to get HIDs to work on our cars? i know you can hardwire the HIDs to work but id rather not mess with the factory wires, is there any way to get them to work without cutting/messing the existing wires? ive checked around at other sites but still havent found any solutions, thanks for any help
you dont have to cut anything. just switch the wires around coming out of your hid kit to the car and it works. I got a Hi/low HID kit and for some reason i could only get low beam or high beam(by switching wires around). It dont switch when i use the high beam from inside the car. I could get low beam, but it turns off when i turn on the high beam from inside. its pissing me off......i got the low beam working w/o cutting anything....but its getting high beam that the trouble.... so fuck it... im takeing it to my local shop tomorrow. ill let u guys know what happends tomorrow. but as far as i know... you dont have to cut anything.
what hi/low kit did you purchase??? Can you post any pics when done??? Try hard wiring it to see if they work. ;)
Just got back from the shop. Im pissed... the ep got some stupid wiring so i cant do anything for now. im ganna have to get something extra for this shit to work.... i figured out something though. I found out the voltage on the 3 different settings. It will help you guys if you want to install you own HIDs. but so far low beam works. but i cant switch to hi... and hard wiring wont work in my case.
