Default Hid retrofit in my jdm teg lights.. how do i do it ??

ok guys when i sold my hatch i kept my hids. they were just plug and play and had to use the housing from the h4 bulb. now, i have a teg with jdm front. non hid lights. id like to know if there is a way to make it work and if so how... the plugs look different. or would it be better to sell the hids and the non hid headlights and get the hid headlights.... i dont know what to do, but i miss my hids. help me out.. thanks

plug them in... and adjust it to they way you want them... than silicone it! after that... adjust the height of it by the adjuster on the projectors to make them sit perfectly and even! if it still doesnt work... go pay $100 each bulb and just get the right ones!

buy a new hid kit, 9006. You can't use the H4 bulb kit unless you want to splice into the factory harness, which takes a while.

might want to change the topic title, you aren't doing a retrofit. It sounds like you just want to slap a kit in there, which is really going to blind people, especially with the reversed JDM cutoff.

yeah, what you want isn't a retrofit.. but rather a kit.

the 9006 kit will plug right into the headlights..you can find it online anywhere, depending on what color/temp you want. The average price is about $250-300.

it'd be a lot easier to just buy the OEM HID headlight assemblies. You can find cheap deals on good ones on ebay. I bought mine for $750 plus shipping
