Hid Light Install Guide

[damono]

sounds like a bad earth maybe. Make sure you sand back the bolt you attach it to a bit maybe?

Check ur connections, it might be loose. If it's not that, if u have a volt meter, see if ur voltmeter fluctuates. Is there anything that causes it? EG: hard acclerations, ur sound system too lound? Could be ur battery starting to die. Check that u have enough battery water too.

Cheers!

sorry about the language, that is someone from non-english speaking background.

anyway, i use the existing connector to HID kit, and the kit disnt come with relay, should i put one in, in case?

[KeeFy]

If you're using a H4, as ben said, it's already inside? But i don't see how. If you bought it from ben, and he didn't give u a set, then i think u should ask him for 1. If u bought ur kit from someone else and ur kit didn't come with a relay, then i guess u can make do without it. Different specifications.

ABout that flickering and stuff. You know the back of the ballast bracket how there's a bolt that goes through to hold it to the ballast box, well if that bolt touches metal surfaces will it short, could that be the prob?

[KeeFy]

Yeah that could very well be the prob! Imagine, if ur car is bumpy and ur ballast is jumping up and down, it occassionally touches the ground, and u get ur flickering. try padding it wit something, and try to secure ur ballast properly so that it dosen't shake/vibrate that much. =)

ours didnt come with the relay kit... adams did... any chance of being able 2 get one off you dude???

[damono]

H4 doesnt need one apparently, of thats what you got

[KeeFy]

The man said it !

[AD4M]

rhiannes is h3c same as mine.

any kit outher than h4 uses the harness (h4 harness has the controller for the Bi xenon )

[KeeFy]

I think only the H4's and the Full fleged Bixenons that you get in mercedes and stuff that uses te D2S/D2R bulbs are Bi xnenons, other than that, it should be normal xenons all the way.

[KeeFy]

Oh yeah, anyway, i totally missed a point. I don't have any relays for sale! hahaha i don't have anything for sale in fact. I'm just tryin my best to help the community.

P/s: Pulp, have you found out the problem with the flickering ?

Oh sorry I was only asking in regards to the other guy who had the flickering problems Thought that may have been something to look at. Man I haven't had a chance to install mine yet! Going to make up a bracket for the ballast boxes.

[KeeFy]

Oh okies... haha i'm gonna get mine installed tomorrow after my exams, problem is, i don't have a drill. So i've gotta go to some workshop to borrow their drill and drill the f**k out of my caps. :lol:

Dude, just head to WA salvage. I got my drill for $12.99 ages ago, and a box of about 20 drill bits for $4. They work fine on plastic, everything else and the drill bits arent that good, but for that money, cant complain

[KeeFy]

Hrmm.. Maybe i'll do just that! But another buncha stuff to store over the holidays when i'm not around. I miss home I've got all my power tools there.. :snif snif:

[KeeFy]

Got my hid installed, took 2 hrs, and am quite happy!! The only problem is... My lens is too dirty/oxidised!! The inside not the outside... and now my parkers really look oxidised. FUG. Back to the ol drawing board.

About the flickering that was happening the other night. I've checked all the connections and its all fine and I used cable ties to hold almost everything in place, so I don't think there's any short circuiting.. I then checked the battery water and noticed that it was very low - so I think it's that. Just topped up the water tonight

It only happened during one trip a few nights ago when the car was idle and when I was slowing down. Since then haven't come across it doing the same thing.. so hopefully it was just the water level in the battery. But will see how it goes now..

thanks everyone for trying to help
