i see, so you just isolated the low beam power supply from the high beams? How exactly did you do that? I isolated my fog light power supply to switched 12V instead of the headlights (only when they are on) so i can turn them on by themselves when i'm driving (uber sexy at dusk lol)

well turns out im a looser lol i did a quick google search and came up with this pic. should be the same except where they have the switch input you just use the high beam wire. you only tap into the high beam wire, meaning it still has to turn on your high beam.

the ballast converts 12V DC power to 85V 35Wac you might as well hold on to a butter knife while sticking it in a light socket in your house lol
Yeah thanks for the heads up lol little late.

my last name is fowler, Most people call me by that cause there are allways a ton of matts around. One of my best friends started calling me fiznowler years ago just kinda stuck with that group of friends. Think that one is strange my other playstation gamer tag is kratchkricketz. :wavey:

LOL i am sure i read it while i was putting them in. That doesn't cure the lack of judgement a bottle of vodka gives ya lol. I was in the garage working on some other stuff and decided I would "fix" my lights and i thought it was maybe a loose wire. Whatever the f*** it was they started working better and zapped the piss out of me. :)

Nice car xavier, what're the tail lights you've got on them?

I don't know of anything other than USDM stock and I've seen those around.




Anyone know of any pics of a painted kouki lip? I'm not sure if I should paint it or leave it.

A home depot lip? Like..the appliance store home depot? xD

Or is that a auto-part brand?

Sorry I'm pretty much a noob :P

And isn't there like a factory made lip for the s14 kouki?
