projectors -- HID Fitment

[whitec230k]

Finally got the projectors. Haven’t come around installing them just yet until I solve this problem I have. The new headlights have H3 in the projectors and H4 in the other, and there is no fog. The ones in my stock have H7 HIDS in the normal beam spot so I want them placed in the projectors – problem is H7 doesn’t fit in the H1 Projector and I don’t want to spend another $120 to get H3 HID bulbs. Any suggestions?

I’m not sure if there’s hid bulbs for h3… check ebay. The funny part is that I got brand new h7 bulbs for the projectors same time as when I ordered the new headlights. I didn’t know they’ll be different! I’m going to do a little fabrication just like how jstrat85 did to make them fit.

There is no manufacturer logo on these anywhere. It just says made in Taiwan and QC passed like 5 times on each headlight. lol. To be honest these projectors look a little cheap and there’s already a minor chip on the lens. Plus i hate the fact that if you get your headlight lens cracked you can't replace it like the OEM ones. I should have gone with the crystal clear headlights but to late.

I’ll post some pics after I get these installed but it will be a while. Way too busy with work.

I guess this only apply to people who has OEM HID and want to use them on the new clear headlight. Except those who are intending to install their HID on the projectors.

Where and how do you connect the mirror blinkers wire?

[whitec230k]

i spliced it off the front corner blinkers and added a fuse in between.

i just bought a pair of crappy $5 h4 bulbs only to take out the outer rings to use them for adapters.
