DIY: OEM JDM HID Headlight Conversion

[DeeBee]

Finally, I have success!!

The low beam stays on when I select the high beam

I used a 6A 400V rectifier diode between the low and high beam ground wires connected to the low and high beam relays.

So far the result is what I have been looking for

Thank you all for your help along the way!!!

This was short-lived

My HID's started flickering intermittently

After some investigation I found that the harness I used had started melting connectors Not sure if the diode "fix" was responsible but I was lucky my headlights did not shut off on me while driving on a dark road or highway.

I had to disconnect everything and I'l have to do this install all over again in the summer! I think this time I'll look for one of the Morimoto harnesses that have been great in the past.

Looking forward to bright headlights again....
