05-09 CHEVY COBALT BLACK PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS PAIR NEW : eBay Motors (item 220683667887 end time Nov-14-10 22:46:12 PST)

how would i do this?

 

buy an hid kit and install it, the same way you would on any other set of lights. It's really straightforward.

 

ok but i didnt know can the hids go with projectors and work fine? also it looks like this uses 2 bulbs and my factory is 1 bulb how does that all work?

 

holy **** kumar he's a genius!

 

you buy a set for you low beams. just so you know its a defferent bulb for the projectors then it is for the stock headlights. for instance the stock bulb is i beleive 9007 and my 3rd gen projectors take a H1. so figure out what hids you need.

 

okay thanks guys

 

The 4th Gen projector headlights, which are the lights you are looking to buy i believe take H4 bulbs. I may not be right so you should double check. the projectors are the low beams. the reflectors are the high beams. If you want to put HID's in both the low and high beams you will need to buy 2 seperate HID kits. The downfall is when you switch from low beams to high beams you will have darkness while the bulbs warm up. and vise versa. My advice, either A retrofit or B get just low beam HID's and fog light HID's and leave the high beams stock halogen.

 

Listen op. I see u dont have alot of posts and judging byu this thread u havent researched ****. Go to "forum jump" and then appearance, and then the official headlight and taillight thread and read it. They take H7 bulbs.... not what this guy said ^

 

Exactly what Kevin said. Read the sticky's, they really do help. At least I would hope so since I wrote it.

 

so i can get them and just use low beams as hids and high beams normal lights no problems?

 

yes.
Im running those exact headlights. Its easy as can be. All you need to do to run the hids in them is cut a small hole in the rubber grommet used to access the bulbs in the housings. Everything else is plug and play. The headlights themselves have a harness that plugs into the car. So as long as you get the correct bulbs for these projectors your good.

And I think the h7 as was said right. I ordered an H11 and h7 kit at the same time so kinda dont remember which was used for lowbeam. (used one set for my fog/driving lights)

 

so when you use high beams it turns hids off and runs the halogens? and when you go back to low beams it the hids?

 

yes. but if you stay on highbeams for a while and then you switch to low beams you will probably have a second of black because you hids need to wark up before they put out max light

H11 are the cobalts fog lights so yeah H7's have to be for the headlights.

 

yes it's h7 for gen 4's low beams.. I just did the same thing..

I recommend ddm tuning..

 

whats ddm tuning?

 

a company the sells hid kits.... probably the biggest

 

oh okay thanks!

 

yea no problem... If this was a few months ago I would have recommend the vendor on the site buyhids, till I actually purchased there products...
