Xenon Hid Lights Conversion For R32

From your second picture, seems like your passenger (left) side needs to go down, and your driver side (right) needs to move to the left.

But you really need to find a level ground with a wall.

Thanks NiZmo Man!

Any updates on this for the R32 Projectors?

niZmO_Man.... is the Mini D2S 4.0 still the one to go for?

I'm looking for something that will be relatively easy to fit (don't mind a little dremel work) and stealth as HID in NZ is a WOF fail.....

how do i wire up my FX projectors so when i switch to high beams the projector stays on?

[niZmO_Man]

Diode on the high beam wire, so the current flows to the solenoid when you hit the highs.

The high beam bulbs on my car have a separate relay wiring, so I use the standard wires for activating the solenoid.

[omnigear]

do elaborate the procedure when you get a chance

I didn't take pictures of my dodgy wiring, but I'll make a neater harness so will take pictures then.

In the mean time, Morimoto D2S 3.0 projector with Osram CBI bulb, did a quick retro:

 

Try getting that with a H1 LED bulb

Wow I didn't know about this bracket. Retrofitting is trivial now.

[Robzilla32]

So, I have a set of projector headlights that I intend on retrofitting and then performing a transplant for the N1s.

I have read through a lot of posts about HID conversions and some date back a few years. Is the best option the latest Mini D2S and stick to 35w / 4200k? I.e. no point in going above 35w and I am not interested in bright white / blue headlights.

Looking at Lightwerkz, it seems like you can buy the brackets as mentioned above:

Then build your own kit:

Not sure why Lightwerkz didn't list it anymore, but they used to let you select D2S or G5 projector to go with their R32 bracket.  G5 is cheaper and has identical dimensions to D2S, except the housing isn't painted black.  D2S has a more centralized hot spot and G5 is more spread out, you can check it out on their comparison videos.

Thanks @TXSquirrel I will check it out.

BTW, it does mention G5 at the bottom of the page:

2x Nissan R32 to D2S 4.0 / G5 Conversion Brackets

[niZmO_Man]

The mountings for Mini D2S v4 and G5-R should be the same. I'd go G5-R as I think the beam is better.

I missed out on decently priced housings, could have done LED projector retrofit

[KEBAB_DRIFTER]

Its a shame no one in Australia makes these adapter brackets

[niZmO_Man]

It won't be hard to find someone with a laser cutter to smash out 100 of them for less than $50/pair?

[TXSquirrel]

Would be nice to get the bracket in different thickness too, so it can close the gap between projector and factory bezel.
