depo hid retrofit w/high beam? - Toyota Yaris Forums

bladesmith6 · 06-21-2009, 12:40 AM

I tried to search this out but could not find anything short of a custom harness. I have the depo projectors(unfortunately) and I was going to install HID in the low beams but in this state I have yearly inspections so I need to have functioning high beams. I don't plan on needing them but they have to work and I don't want to buy a second set of HIDS I'd just like to hook up the halogens that come with the lights. Has anyone done this?

they are separated light bulbs. so it wouldn't affect anything if you just changed the low beams and keep the highs.

That's what I was going to do, but I didn't know if I could just connect the high beams into the HID harness so that they would work. If I didn't have a damned state inspection every year I wouldn't worry about it.

why would you want to plug the high beam harness into the HID ?? plug the lowbeam to the HID and plug high beam to the high beam halogen bulb ?

OK, lets try this again. The depo lights take H1 bulbs, most HID H1 kits are set up that you lose the halogen high beam, I can't have that with my state inspection. As far as I know short of a custom harness you can't just plug it in, that's what I'm trying to see if anyone has found a way around it. or if a bi-xenon kit will fit but I really didn't want to go that route.
