I was wondering what everyone does about the wiring for the headlights. I purchased the non-HID front conversion and was wondering what I need to do when it comes to wiring up the headlights?? Anyone interested in helping me out??

it's pretty much straight forward. low beam 9006 will plug right in and the rest has a harness(if i rememebr correctly, the headlights share one common ground.)

~Turn on the function manually and ground the black to black(ground)..ie..high beam..ground the black wire and tap in to one of the wires from the plug(connect it to the hadlight harness) the high beam on the headlight should turn on if, not try a different wire.

~high beam/fog lights/corner lighs plug will need to be cut and splice into the plug wich plugs in to the jdm itr headlight harness.

 

On the brown headlight plug the wires are as follows...

Red/Yellow=Foglight
Black=Ground
Red/Green=Highbeam
Black/Red=Running Light

 

what about the turn signal and the city light??

use you stock turn signal, it plugs into the slot on the jdm headlights. Tap into that for the sidemarkers.

 

Running light=City light

The turn signal on your stock harness plugs into the headlight.

Becareful when doing so and make sure you have the sidemarker doing only one of two things. Either its on constantly ( which it wasn't meant for but it is an option ) or have it only turn on when you use your signals. What I did for the corner lights was use a dual filament socket for an 1157 bulb. Not sure if you have a 96 or not, but what I did to make it act as parking light and turn signal was go off of the existing wiring that went into my USDM corner lights. You should have 4 wires ( 2 going to each bulb housing ). One is a constant, one is the "turn signal wire" or flasher wire, and the other two are grounds. Of course...common sense will tell you that you'll have one extra ground wire that won't connect to anything if you did what I did Other than that, its pretty much straight forward from there. Low beam will be the same wiring, high beams too. No modification is really necessary other than if you have a wiring harness ( splice and sodder is recommended if you have a harness ) or if you don't ( female end tab connectors will be needed ). As for the foglights....well....I had a PIAA harness already in the car with relay. All I had to do was wire it up from there and add the jdm switch

 

thanks I'll do a write up on this after I do the conversion this weekend.
