I believe all 4 are wired in series, try wiring them separately, but I haven't looked at mine in forever. That and no matter what route you go with the stock 2 LED per block set-up they will only run off 2 volts, I don't think it's worth the time and effort to mess with the stock set-up anymore. I'm going with the LED rings eventually, and I gave up on the stock LEDs, got tired of replacing them once a month.

 

what do u think i could wire them to? right now both halo rings and the 3 leds on top are all wired to my parking lights like this how to says to do it. what else could i wire the halos to to have them on all the time?

 

Your driving lights. That or do a little custom work and maybe do an add a fuse to the IGN fuse?

 

ign fuse sounds promising i think. i have some of those little copper fuse taps, could i just use that or do u think i should spend a few extra bucks and get that add a fuse thing

 

I've never seen the taps before but I know the add a fuse is pretty safe. It says it's only rared for a certain amps and the IGN fuse is rated a little higher, but I've been running my gauges off them for over 2 years now and it's cool.

thats the taps im talking about. it just slides over one side of the fuse and u wire it to that

 

Go with an add a fuse, much safer and you run 2 fuses.

 

where can i find some brighter halos. ones you see on beamers

Are the bulbs in the projector headlights the same as stock bulbs or are they different

Where can I get replacement l.e.d.s

Where can I get replacement l.e.d.s

 

anyone have a issue with the drivers side bulb not working? everything works except that one headlight

 

check the bulb and the fuse box. low high left and right are all fused separately

 

after messing with it for hours last night and just calming down and going over everything i looked inside the connector and saw that the prongs inside there might not have been making contact so i bent them down some and reconnected it and it worked. the good thing is they fit a lot nicer than my stockers.

 

I Sell replacment LEDS and HIDs for the projectors.

 

i still havent seen a answer if hids fit on the projector headlights, the headlights from the first page

 

yes, they do. They are H1 bulbs for the low beams and H7 for the high beams. You can put hids in any headlights

 

i have hids that i used when i had the stock headlights but when i got the 1st gen projectors i just couldnt see how you could install them.

 

You can't use the ones you put in the stock headlight, they are a different bulb type. You need to get h1 bulbs. The stock bulbs are 9007

 

I followed this how to exactly like it says and only my leds work. non of the halos work replaced the leds in the halos and they still dont work. any ideas?

 

You will need to rewiire them moost likely as the wiring is crap and the resiisters they use are crap.

 

just got mine, same as the OP but i only have 2 wires of each on the back for the halo/led. and just noticed my housing say "caution no hids" does that REALLY mean i couldnt put them in at a later date?

 

you can use hids, there just not designed for them.

 

got a promlem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i bought a kit that came with the HIDs. its plug an play as far as that goes..
problem is, when i turn on the lights, the driver side HID and the passenger high beam come on, then when i switch to high beams, the passenger HID and driver high beam are on. i also noticed that the passenger harness is not color coded, they are all black, and the turn signal is a completely different type of plug than on the driver side.
is it possible that a simple wire switch can fix this? i am thinking that of the three wires that go into the headlight only one of them controls the high beam? maybe the previous owner switched them somehow?
if it helps, the passenger light has always reached farther than the driver side, and i always assumed it was just aimed wrong...

also... my kit came with four "quick splicers". are they safe and efficient to use for the halo and LEDs or should i use the technique explained here? will the connections be weaker with the quick splicers?

 

can i get sum help with this?? ^^^^^^^^
im an electrical newb, so i have no idea what to do?
im assuming that the wire controlling the high beam and the wire controlling the low beam got switched, and i was thinking about just switching them and seeing if that works????
all three wires are black (thanks previous owner...) but i can use the other side to determine which of the wires i need to switch. black if the return line, correct? negative i guess i should call it...

 

i wish i could help you.. my personal suggestion would be to hit up some kind of pick n pull junk yard w/ a cobalt and nab a harness.. i dont know much more, im tryin to look at this thread myself to fig out my lights lol.. good luck bro. ^
