Hey nico im kinda confused, I doin the front end conversion but my zenki headlight connecters are differnt from the houki headlight terminals. Do I got to cut my old connectors and splice and wire kouki ones so they'll fit the kouki headlight? And what do i do about the Low and high beams since the kouki headlights have 2 bulbs(for low and high) opposed to the zenki dual fillament bulb(low and high beam in 1 bulb)??. Need some help nice please...Thanks :gotme

i thought i told you about the relay you have to wire to get the low beam to stay on.

yes you have to cut your factory low beam wire and splice in the kouki wiring. its pretty easy.

if you need more help just ask.

not exactly...

you will need to cut your zenki low beam harness and find the low beam and ground wires. you then connect those to the low beam on the kouki headlight. then you get a relay, hook up your constant power and constant ground with a fuse and then you take the remaining high beam wire from your zenki (low beam) harness and you run it to the relay. from there you take the remaining pin of the relay and run it back to the low beam wire of the kouki light.

that makes it so that when you turn on the high beam it activates the relay and in turn keeps the kouki low beam staying on. we discussed it in the kouki check in, ill see if i can find the page.
