I have tried searching for the guide to convert the lights but I cannot find it!

My R34 had HIDs and I am fitting Halogen style lights for compliance. Can anyone help me with the pin outs for the connectors? It looks like the HIDs use a 4 pin style and the Halogens use a 3 pin style. I *assume* it looks like an extra negative but can't be sure. It also looks like the 3 pins are for the adjustment (pos up, pos down, negative or something).

Can anyone help me confirm? Also if anyone has done this before any help is appreciated!

I have worked out the connector pin outs with a multimeter now.

The 4 pin, is 3 pos an 1 neg. I think there is Highbeam from the + on the right side and both or one for low beam.

Can someone further clarify what each of the 4 pins are for on the connector?

The 3 pins look to be like the power for the leveling motor on lights.

The 2 pin connector looks like parking lights + and -.

They all output around 9v. I thought they are supposed to be 12v :mellow:

Well I have wired up the new lights and checked and double checked them.

Funnily enough my car was flat, thus 9v from the connectors. Now it is outputting about 11.7v.

The 4 pin is setup as

Low beam is the left side, high beam is the right side.

Independent earth for the HIDs. If you are swapping in Halogens, you will need to earth them separately.
