HID headlight Question..

[ddrum]

Hey guys i just installed HID headlights on my gp, and the turn signals flash twice as fast now.. anybody know what could be wrong? Keep in mind i bought the whole aftermarket headlight, not just bulbs for gp stock headlights.

bad signal bulb most likely

[Sandman]

Yup, sounds like you may have broken a bulb on install.

how do you like your HIDs i really wanna get some they look sweet, are they really bright and shine far?

[Warbeaver]

get them

You guys realize that you WILL have to mod most of the "9007" HID bulbs out there to get the most light outta them right?

Matt5112: Mod meaning????

projectors+HIDs=WIN best light output period

[matt5112]

You've gotta dremel down the base of the plate that meets the housing as well as the slots that determine the way it goes in.

Take about half of the base off and then use a rubber shim to make sure it still locks in tight and you should have quite a bit of light output.

Ah ok I gocha

I can get you pics of them modded if you want 'em.

Here's a pic of the connectors.. if theres a problem its probably with this. I just need somebody to clarify if this is proper or not. Thanks!

i just got my grand prix and havent gotten a chance to see if removing and installing headlights is simple or not in these cars. is it just a simple slide out slide in with a couple screws or is there anything else needed? (I.e removing front bumper as in my friends car)

[CTKGP09]

you gotta remove the headlight, its just two 10mm bolts and the bulbs are as simple as twist them out, unplug them, plug the new one it, and twist it back in
