HID JM H.I.D kit 6000k lights

Back of the box, stock vs. HID

The kit: 2 6000k bulbs, 2 ballasts w/ connection cables, 2 ballast clamps, 4 zipties, 6 mounting screws

The install - '06 Sentra 1.8S

Open the hood, locate position of headlight bulbs, both are H13/9008. Driver side bulb is located in front of the battery and passenger side bulb is in front of the coolant bottle

Kit box, instructions, and Sentra wiring diagram(Not included w/ the kit). For this kit their was some wiring involved, nothing too difficult but easily messed up if not installed correctly.

Driver side: Move the battery over to the right so you can have more room with the install. This is where the install gets interesting....the H13 kit isn't plug and play, it's plug and wire . This is also a good time to have a wiring diagram handy.

You have 2 wires the have to be cut from the bulb connector (green) red/black is positive and red/brown is negative, run 2 wires from connection on the ballast box, the one not hooked up to the bulb. This is because the connection does not just plug into the existing connector (green) CAUTION: Having the kits hooked up this way results in sacrificing your highbeams due to no connection. Something you may want to consider if you want H.I.D's for your B15 ('04 - '06).

Testing to make sure it works Stock vs. HID...Wow what a difference

One down, one to go

Passenger side you should remove the coolant bottle to have more room while installing. Wiring is involved on this side too, you'll have 3 wires coming out of the connector: purple (positive), yellow (negative), and a solid black as ground.

The other involved step of installing the kits is finding a place where to mount the ballasts at. You want them in a location close enough to the bulb but not where they might come in contact with weather. Easily enough mounted on the inner part of the fenders on each side, drivers side used an existing screw hole and mounted it there. Passenger side one we used the existing screw holding the fuse box in place and had the bracket behind that. Both in the same general area and will stay protected from the elements.

Drivers side..blurry I know but you get the idea

Passenger side

Once that is all said and done you're finished, sit back enjoy the lighting. They're really bright and look amazing at night, the car looks totally different and feels different while driving. Visibility is 100x better and clearer. Also the HID's have a crisp look to them.

Nice job Josh

WTF?! I did 99% of the work...

Good thing I can read a wiring diagram.

Jerks...

Maybe 99% of the talking. And you keep talking about a wiring diagram. Where'd ya get it? that's right

Ballasts on drivers side.

Ballasts on passenger side

"Thats hot"

When I think of feels differently, I think handling and such. That's why I asked the question.

You mean it looks differently.

I like it. It looks nice. I may do something like that after the VQ swap, if I manage to get it next year.

Nice job NSR boys! There, that includes everyone. Hate to hurt anyones feelings

For upgraded lighting FTW!

Cap the 3rd wire and tape it to the wiring. That's what we did since that wire is for the high's and we weren't using high beams any longer.

Money it's not always the issue, you can still get a nice set of HIDs at ebay for less than 100 bucks. In my case they work great and look great, and they're genuine not the knock off bulbs. Look for yourself
