i have a plug and play kit...and on the kit it says to plug the ground wires into the negative battery terminal...but the thing is that the drivers side ground wire does not make it to the battery...is it ok to connect it to the car..or do i have to add another wire to it? thanks

 

yes, any good chassis screw will do it.

 

im confused pnp but you have to ground?
is this bi xenon kit?
i just bought a pnp kit and i didnt have to ground anything, just plug the blub into ballast and stock wire for bulb and turn on

 

yea it is plug and play..and thank u for the information

 

i put the ground wires on the bolts for the fenders...are those good places??

 

No because (at least on mine) the fenders are painted in that area so you would placing the ground onto a painted surface. I would suggest using the ground that is on the frame to the left of the drivers side headlight (when you look at the car) which is also a ground for your block.

Unless you're using the passenger side for the ground, I would also suggest using the ground that is under your intake which also is a ground for your block.

 

ok..so the ground wire for the drivers side should go to where the block is grounded..correct? and the passenger side can go to a bolt that is under the SRI? is that correct also

 

Wait. You have to ground both sides of your HID PnP kit? If thats the case then yes I would use what you said.

 

iight...thanks alot man..i went out last night at about 6 to change the ground location..and then turned them on for the first time..i freakin love them...went driving and didnt get flashed..i might adjust them just alittle bit higher

 

Awesome, good to hear it. I can't wait to find some good projectors so I can retrofit a pair into my headlights. Any pics of the output of your PnP's?

 

dont got a camera..so imma wait til this weekend to borrow one from my gf...then ill take some..

 

Ok cool

 

I thought hid kits are plug and play which set did you get how come you have to ground it :/ woooo so much work

 

Some are. Some (I guess) aren't. I prefer to retrofit a set of projectors and then use HIDs, but thats me.

 

i would prefer that also...but im a broke *** college kid..so these will do for now...

 

Haha I know that feeling. Hence why I'm still running stock bulbs lol

 

if its a low beam 35watt kit you i dont think you need to ground anything.
i have a pnp kit and was plug ballast in, mount and go,
and they work no blown fueses no blown ballast. just plug them in.
the plug for the stock bulb has a ground in it already.

 

they kit is the bixenon..low and hi beam...and eskimo10 the only reason y i dont have stock bulbs anymore was cuz they were a christmas gift from my gf's brother..haha..

 

i got a set of hids from shopxenon.com
and they were plug and play also well they have a ground wire mounted into them but i didnt ground them they just had two naked wires with metal clips on the end with a plastic housing and just inserted them through that and pluged the bulbs in and the ballast and turned them on and there we go all done they are bright .....they are not bi xenons but they are 10000k which does require high and low lol i get flashed here and there not all the time though my computed crapped out on me for now so i cant show you a pic but as soon as its fixed i will post one up

 

Nice haha. I've got all I need for a retrofit just no projectors. Got ballasts, bulbs, ignitors, etc. just waiting on those darn projectors at a good cheap price.

Isn't 10000k really purple?

 

no 10000k is actually a very very pure blue i mean BLUE , The Purple HIDS are the 12000k ,everything is lit up blue like is a go down a road at night about 50 feet in front of my car is where my lights hit the ground and about 10 feet on either side of my headlights is lit up on the ground and any sign that has anything reflective no matter how far way it is my HIDS are illuminating it blue they are great i wish my comp was not crapped out or i would post a pic...........

Oh and by the way if your want projector headlights for cheap trust me on this go to K2motor.com you wont be dissapointed they are cheap and you should recieve your item within 8 days no lie check it out

 

Ah gotcha. I've got 4300k sitting in my room, and those are really nice.

k2motor is nice, but I'm looking for projectors to retrofit in, not projector headlights. I had a pair for a while, but they were crappy. and you couldn't fit HIDs in b/c they would melt it.

 

alright i managed to get pics on my dads comp here so these are 10000k hids on my 98 civic hatch stock headlights.

Heres the head light day time view


heres the front view night time


heres me lighting up my alley


i hope you like these pics let me know what you guys think thanks installed them myself btw

 

Well yea I guess that is a pretty brilliant blue.

But theres no sort of cut off on it, I'm suprised more people don't flash you or something lol.

 

no its only low beam to i forget to tell my dad if he was gonna get me them for Christmas to get me bi xenons lol so i just got regular buts ok as you can see they are very bright and i get a few ppl every now and then that dont like my lights lol but oh well i dont care as long as i can see better
