Sounds like your having the same problem as me with not having high beams. What two color wires did you switch?

 

this might help



forgot i had it

 

I tried every combination of switching the pins and I still have no high-beams.

 

what about the hi beam/shutter plug did you try switching that?

 

I'm not even sure what that is?

 

Lol. Bmartz, make a trip to Johnstown, we'll get it working!

Keiser is talking about the 2 additional connectors hanging on the back of the headlight and they need to be plugged into the ballast. If not plugged into the ballasts, the shudders don't move to allow for hi-beams.

 

Stupid double post...

 

I gotcha, they are deff plugged in. I guess I'll try switching them around, but I thought they only went in one way.

 

Anyone ever seen this happen. Painted the orange markers and they were fine for about a week. come outside today and its laying inside the headlight warped and cracked. I guess the black paint attracted to much heat.

 

Ive seen that in my old friends car. Halogen bulb ftl. I run LEDs after i saw his haha

 

As ive said before..

9007 High beam Tricks
--------------------------
Swap PINs in harness. TRS wires them 9004 by default
Swap ballast/high beam plugs. Earlier versions of there harness the labels were reversed.
Pins in 9007 connect are slightly bent and do not go into the slots
Wires on the high beam plug need to be switched. (no one to blame but myself if there my lights )
Pins on the high beam plug are bent/no connection.

 

How does everyone photograph their retros? I tried with my iphone and the quality is horrible lol it just glares like they are in stock housings

 

does anyone know where to get new lenses? mine have some little chips and i'd like to start a retrofit but want new lenses before I do.

 

I have New lights for sale but not just lenses.

 

I'm selling my retros if anyone is interested. 2010 OEM SS housings, MiniH1 5.0 with Galtling Shrounds. All black with chrome reflector bowl and turn signal bowl. Shoot me offers if serious and will send pictures

 

easy, just don't have the lens' on when you take the pic



in all seriousness though i find that if i step back probably close to 50' my lights look how they are in my pic with the lens' off, but this is also in the daytime and i haven't tried it at night

 

This is your problem.

 

 

Just finished mine, finally. EvoX-Rs with Apollo 2.0 Flat shrouds, 4,300k Philips 85122+ D2S bulbs, and Morimoto XBALED Angel Eyes.





Video of the test drive is still uploading.

 

just a quicky retro, good parts, just not fancy.

All Black Stock Housings, Morimoto H1's (gen 5), and GG shrouds painted orange.

 

Here's the video of my EvoX-R test drive.

 

did you happen to take measurements of the projector?

 

New Retros! I love em. Mini H1s with Color matched G37-R shourds and RGB Halo rings

 

nice.. where are the halo rings from?

 

Post up some pics.

I have a set of OEM 06 SS lights that I am thinking I am going to retro, but I wouldnt be opposed to buying some I already like, save the work.
