Snoop-y Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Hi all, I am thinking about to get this conversion done as I am not really satisfied with the factory provided high quality candle lights :D What do I need for this apart from the following?: JDM Xenon headlamps. I guess this exercise is not a plug and play one. Will the leveling work after this? Are there any proper other solution? Normal HID no thanx except it is built in a headlights body.

quit Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 No idea mate but impreza lights are always terrible What about one those kits ?? I forget the name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I don't know either I have been looking at changing my to a hawkeye and have seen kit's you can buy that plug and play for the lights, so might be worth looking at that. Maybe same thing matts on about :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoop-y Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 This can be considered as well. It is called retrofit and this could be a solution between the full headlights change and basic HID conversion kit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHuDrd6tNUg It needs a little work but I am not afraid to getting my hands dirty if the outcome will be perfect ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Yeah seen a few for sale just the wiring I'm unsure about until I see them, but if I can get the kit that will do me nicely if it's too complicated :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonzey Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 I've got JDM HIDs in my UK car, but the seller of the lights also sold the custom loom for it... I'm no sparky but if we're ever in the same area for a show/meet/trackday/whatever you're welcome to take a look and reverse engineer :P 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoop-y Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 Hi all, I hesitated a lot and I am going to do the retrofit Xenon conversion. I ordered the kit and I also bought a heating gun as I am a bit afraid of putting the headlights in the owen. I keep you posted and I`ll document the project with photos. Wish me luck guys :D 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Good luck mate looking forward to seeing how you get on. Hopefully look spot on. And I like how you have added the extra pressure of getting it right now by telling us [emoji6] [emoji106] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
