Unplug the light/marker/indicator harness from your stock headlight.
thats whats supposed to plug into your projectors
youll notice when you pull your headlight bulb, the plugin there matches with the plug on your projectors.

notice how your projectors have holes for indicator/markers, but no plugs/wiring for them?
thats because your supposed to use your stock harness.


nothing is wrong.

You have to take out the turnsignals from the stock headlight, the turnsignals will be connected to the stock plug use that wire everything together...

its aaaaaaaaalll good.. HAHA.

They fit. I guess I rushed it haha.

Thx An0malous, + rep

so the low beams are crap, high beams are fine.

The low's are H1? what are the Highs? should I change both with silverstars or what? i'll be buying HID's for sure, but I need something better in the meantime..

np man
how is the aiming....
I actually found that when aimed good they were better than stock.
but id pick up a set of H1, then when you get HID, you can move those nice ones into the highbeam slot, and not waste any money.

make sure the cutoff isnt visible on the road, but isnt high enough to shine in drivers eyes.

the cutoff is on the road, and not very far out right now. I need to aim the lights higher.

H1's for lows and highs? Well that works.... i'll do as you suggested then.

Just remember when you aim them they will seem a little lower than what they will look like while driving. When you get out on the road, they will project up a little more than what it looks like on the wall your measuring on. Make sure you don't have the black void alot of people get after installing.
