Listen to Corey.

So the stock bulb has 2 filaments. 1 for lowbeam and 1 for highbeam.
So if you replace this bulb with a standard HID bulb and projector, you will only get a lowbeam.

In order to get around this, you can retrofit a bi-xenon projector.
Essentially, it uses the same bulb but there is a motorized eyelid that comes up and allows light to be emitted as a highbeam when you hit the switch.

I am a fan of the acura projectors more than the BMW ones...but I guess that's more just personal preference.

There is more on this at www.hidplanet.com.
People there get really creative. Lots of great work done.

Hey look for username samlindsay, I did my last retrofit of HID on my civic before it died on me. I am saving up money for tl bixenon since I still have my tsx projectors (low beam xenon). I love the tsx for their clear lense and tons of color. I am contemplating to reuse the tsx projectors and fabricate a a seperate high beam. Anywho people watch out for my retrofit in the coming future!

The reason I backed out was because I was afraid of getting pulled over by the cops in my area.. but now I see soooooooooooo many cars with HID.. I am start to wondering if the cops actually have time or even care about pulling people over for after market HID

tonywenzel · 11-01-2006, 08:39 PM

I seriously doubt most police are up to speed on which cars do and do not come with OEM HIDs. Also, which cars offer them as options.

OxyG3nE · 11-01-2006, 08:59 PM

there is no way it can burn the wire?

ChinoCharles · 11-01-2006, 09:22 PM

Police see HID's and assume that the car is expensive, the people in it have money, and they don't pull you over. HIDs are on a LOT of cars these days.

Yaris-TJ · 11-06-2006, 11:25 AM

can some one post pics of ballast placements?

Did you guys have them drilled to the chasis? or

Are they tied with the straps to some of the wires?

Violin, Did you have to remove the front bumper to install the hi/low HID kit?
how long did it take for you to install?
I think you had the PIAA bulbs before? Is there a HUGE/BIG/Slight difference?

Thanks

Yaris-TJ · 11-06-2006, 03:40 PM

Thanks Violin! nice install!

Violin · 11-06-2006, 03:48 PM

Mine aren't in yet - that's Chris's.

IsLNdbOi · 11-06-2006, 07:12 PM

There's supposedly a small area under each headlight on the Yaris just for the ballasts, but I'm not sure if it's on the sedan or liftback.
