I'm about to install my headlights and i have a few questions i thought you guys may be able to help me with as i know there are alot of g2 guys lingering this forum.


Are you headlights supposed to come with the rubber strip around the corner lights? Mine did not, and I tried getting them off my old ones but they were kinda rotted apart. I do have access to a parts car and hopefully I will be able to get them.

On the car, there are 4 plugs for each side. 1 corner light, 1 unknown, the main bulb, and this little 2 prong connector.

On the JDM headlights there are 3 places for wires. I know that the main bulb must be cut and wired up to the stock harness, but what about the other ones? Do the plugs just slide in?

I know this sounds confusing, so if you guys dont understand, ill try to be more clear about it...

match the wires up even for the fogs..... check out teg tips on http://www.g2ic.com

 

isnt there actually 2 plugs on the car harness for the USDM corner? why is this?

 

usdm has a flashing bulb and one that stays on constant. i just used the one that stays on constant as i have bumper lights that flash already and tuck the spare harness away

 

i have a shitload of rubber seals that go on top of corner lights...
$2 a peice let me know
Out of the 2 stock plugs only one will fit
if you go by that
On the jdm light Your lights will only be on /IT WILL NOT FLASH

If you want it to flash/be on
You gotta cut the wires and swap the Sockets
easy stuff

considering i installed about 4 cars
and sold many sets of 1peices

Ditto, but i use the flahing on, and leave that constant one hanging.

here she be............





Camera doesn't do any justice. The lights are much nicer than USDM stock, and the fogs are very noticable yellow bulbs. I really like them. The main bulb wiring was easy, but i became a bit confused about the corner/ ****. Luckily I had a friend that swung by and helped me out.

Thanks for the help guys!

 

the only tedius thing is the little square in the fog lights.
but im prety sure you know how to remove it.

with a heat gun, its really easy

but yeah, it looks alot better without the glare gaurd, and i never got pulled over for it, so i think its ok, unless ur in CA. i opened it up twice, once to paint it black on the inside, and then another time to paint it back to chrome (i didnt like the black)

 

so removing the glare guard will blind oncoming traffic?

 

Anyone else out there do HID conversions on the JDM one pieces? I just did it! BUMP for HIDs! I had to convert mine to regular H4 to accomodate the HID bulb. Is there another way?

 

i dunno if they blind them, im dropped 2.5 in the front, so i doubt it even makes a difference, but yeah, they are alot brighter, and looks better than without that nipple. did you do the fog-light trick, where you could turn the fogs on w/o having the headlights on?

 

I think you're talking to me Rob, if you are, then yeah, I rewired my fogs and put in the legend yellow bulb covers. I don't have one pieces yet
