ALL DONE!!!! Check below for pics and wiring diagrams

im workin on a little project, should all be done by the end of March.

Here's what im going for

ill post on how i did it with pics and everything. mid-install and post-install pics and description

if anyone has already done this any pointers are welcome

 

i got the hella lights in, next week the hid kit should come in.

ill post pics to show how i did it

 

What grille are you running right now? Should be great, I love to see lights behind the grille when they actually work. They are functional and save space. Post some pics of the install and finished work!

 

Did you order the H3C HID bulbs? Did you order relays as well? Post pics when they come in!

 

yes ordered H3 single beam 8k with relays, gonna knock it all out next week then order my headlight hid kit.

ill be sure and take pics of everything

 

got the lights installed, this week the hid lights come in, ill post more pics

keep in mind the pics were taken with an iphone

ill get more up of my light install that includes my wiring

 

Looks good but do the hellas jump around while driving? The mounts look kinda flimsy.

 

when i hit a bump the lights shake a bit, but for the most part they are pretty sturdy. im going to add a cross-beam support to help with that

 

I love it! If I didn't have an H-bar I'd do that with mine. I would like that look on mine over a brush/grille guard. Killer work.

 

thanks for the praise mblouir, just cost $40 and some free time

i installed the hid lights in the Hella's today, they look sick.

Heres a wiring diagram, a layout of the contents, and a few pics










pics were taken with an iphone btw

hit me up with any questions, before you ask though -> yes, i am getting matching hid's for my headlights next week

 

OMG that looks SICK!!! Can you get some close-up daytime shots of the H3 bulbs? I'm trying to see how big they are (want to get some now).

for being the first to do this!

Edit: Nice diagrams too! If you could, could you make the blue type a bit bigger? I'm having troubles reading it. But I am truly impressed!

 

Dude that's bad @ss! I'm bookmarking this in case I ever change my grille out. Will definitely go this route. Thanks a ton for the pictures and especially the diagram. Looks like you put some work into this. When you get a chance could you get some night visibility pics shining on something with the Hellas on and off for a comparison? I bet they are extremely bright.

Awesome job.

 

fixed the 2nd diagram so its easier to read

 

ive been wanting to do this for a while...but i think im going to save the money to put in some 55watt 5000ks in the yamaha r6 that im getting...right now i have 35watt bixenon 5000k and 35watt 5000ks in my fogs and i love them...outshine my buddy's 4 kc's

can you list the total price for this mod

hella price...
hid price....
relays/ect....

thanks

 

heres a pic of the bulb that came in the Hellas, the hid bulb is about twice as long

heres 3 pics of the light im getting, i was very close to the wall, and thats rain on my windshield not dirt!

the Hella lights haven't been correctly lined up yet either



halogens headlights only



Hella 8k hid's only
