93-97 jdm depo headlights

Whats up guys, I just got my headlights and I thought they were install and lets go, but they are not. Im having problem cause the stock bulb its not the same as the one that comes with the new headlights. Can someone post pics of a DIY or can someone just explain to me what I have to do. Thanks guys

What's your current bulb size? 9006 or H4? If the depot housing only has one bulb socket, than its an H4 housing. If it's has separate high and low then it's 9006 and 9005. Post a pic.

right now its 9006, so Im guessing I need h4's. So does it go in the stock socket?

You will have to convert it. There were a couple threads here telling you how to do it. Do a quick search.

i recently did mine heres a link to a diagram

So can I do this conversion with HId's?

I say Convert first to H4s then get HIDs that are H4.

Or you can skip that step and go straight to the H4 HID conversion. hehe

Good luck. Remember to wrap all the wiring tightly and seal from water. You don't want anything shorting out. Post pics of the finished deal!

Yea I just bought an HID kit so I can do the conversion, thanks 808trd. BTW, How long did it take you to do?

alright bro thanks

um took me awhile cause i wanted everything done right and once... soldered, heat shrink, color code etc.

^ thanks bro, hopefully I get my HID's tomorrow so I can start

hey guys, I just finished the h4 conversion but how do I do the corner lights. thanks

post up some pics... corner lights shouldn't take you that long

yea but the corner plugs are different than the stock. Should I splice and rewire also? I'll post pics when Im done

the plugs that work for that is the oe bumper signal plugs you can just hook them up to those and the corners will be the signals or you can get extra plugs from the junk yard and rewire it to the oe coner harness and still keep the bumper lights as your signals(i did this one)

Hey rollaboricua one thing i forgot to ask did you get the black housing head/corner lights? if so your gonna have to change the bulb size for the corner because it'll get hot and melt the orange lens inside(happened to my friend)

That looks really nice. Take some daytime pics.

damn! those are bright!

I just finished them, yayyyyy. I'll take the pics soon

oh icic

alright guys its been 2 days and the corner light bulbs went out and also it looks like it melted the inside, what kind of bulbs I have to get?

didnt you read my post earlier? im guessing you have the black housing lights right? i ghetto rig on some 194s

I have black corners and they haven't melted. It's been almost a month.

for the 7th gens jdm black housing corners theres a orange dome inside and the bulb inside it is pretty big... i'll take pics of my friends corners since he melted his corners before

You can always use LED corner lights with a relay. Heat won't be a problem then. Think of it as another upgrade. hehe

damn if I knew these lights were such a big problem I wouldn't of got them...LOL Its all good

So if I get led bulbs it would be much better?

Heat is very low with LED bulbs. However, you will need a relay to control the flash speed since power consumption for the LED bulbs is extremely low.
