Hi Warren

The factory ballasts is located on the back of your fog light (Downstairs),

it was screw up to the light it self like a cover.

That is why we have to remove the front bumper to get access to it in order to put it back after complince.

In additional if your complince workshop do good jobs, I mean they successful put normal globes in low beam, they already make some modisfication on the socket, you have to return it back to factory, so that you can put HID back in place.

I told compliance to leave the motor for the xenons in and i grabbed the globes and the metal transistors there connected to and all i have to do is re run the wires to the xenon motor and remove the globes they currently have installed for australia.

I have fog lights. Essentially, if I want to see details on the road, I have to turn them on. My lights seem to be for the street signs and not the road. People have complained that they are too high. Looked at the lights, and couldn't find a switch like on fold falcons/fairmonts (my previous car) to adjust, so meh, lol. I didn't get any Xenons with mine... Did anyone try to source them? Around what price and where?

Had to get the thread going again sorry! :D (instead of talking about headlights etc in the Show 'n' Shine section)

I'm still to remove my bumper and look at what's what, but on the subject of the fog lights, when I turn the switch for the fogs my park lights come on.

My question is, where the high beam and fog lights used to be (downstairs) were they incorporated into the same globe or?

Also question for Frank, I have H4 HID globes that are low/high beams in one, could I place them in the bottom section and use the low as the fogs and the high as they are?

Hi there:

That happen to me either, when I change my bottom globe to a H4 HID(only with high beam), when I switch the fog, parking light on. I don't know why: (.

Any way, High beam and fog share same globe.

About your H4HID, I thing it will be OK, link the yellow wire to the fog's positive and grey to the negative.

HAHA yeah the ballasts for the fog lights are already there but they are at the bottom, I haven't checked if the headlight ballasts are there yet.

Hey mate, just remove the 4 push tabs on top of the grill, pop the 6 clips at the bottom out and the grill should come straight off :)

On my 2005, there are also 2 clips on the sides towards the top corners which attach it to the bumper. If you need to take the front bar of as well, leave these on and it will just come away with the grill. Put still remove the 4 push tabs as above.

Frank.. i picked up my 350gt today.. now i asked the dealer to put the xenon back on, and they said they did.. now how can i tell the difference between a xenon or non--xenon?.. also i found these connections in my glove compartment that looks like a bulb connection..

Hey there,

Xenon light is very white and bright. If you turn your lights on, you're parking strips (down the side of the headlight) will look very very yellow compared to your Xenon. If there similar, you may have non xenons.

You can also check behind the headlight, but it's hard to see in there. The cover for your bottom fog light, you take off to change the globe will have the ballast for the Xenon light on it. Not just a conventional circular screw off cover. Check this is wired up, and if yes, you have Xenon.

Cheers

      Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c

      I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......

      I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.

      IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
