Stupid question. What's a relay and what does it do???

 

Not electrically savvy at all

 

A relay allows for a higher amount of current (amps) to be "passed" to a device. Think of it as a switch using a trigger. Headlights now use relays, as they had problems in the older days burning up contacts within the headlight switch itself. Now the switch can be used as a trigger to "close" a contact in the relay, which can switch input battery to the output (device recieving the current). Anything that is 30 amps or more usually has a relay in it's circuit.

 

Thanks. Do the kits come with instructions?

 

What is the point of buying a projector headlight that has spaces for 2 bulbs, but with a hid kit you only get 1 bulb? And if your bulbs also have the highbeams in, what good are they?

Im looking for projector headlights with only 1 space for a bulb and bi-xenon HID bulbs.

I just bought a Bi-Xenon kit.... and first i had gotten just the low kit thinking that the hi/lo was built into it lol... live and learn... but sending that one back for the bi-xenon....hopefully they look good

 

Are you using your stock headlight lenses, or do you have different ones. I was reading and people said that when using the stock ones there is little control over where the light is thrown.

And where did you buy your kit from?

 

I can echo that. My HIDs in normal housings on low beam scatter light like hell, they're absolutely amazing offroad because it's like 2 massive flood lights, and the high beams are focused right on the road

 

Crap... no I didnt know I would need a different lens..... well I dunno what to do now...

 

I've been looking everywhere for projector type headlights with 50 watt bi-xenon HID bulbs and I havent had any luck.

mustangGT90210: have you had any problems with the po-lice or any other vehicles b/c of the scatter?
