is there a DIY video for the fog light hid installation ? just bought a kit tonight, but not sure how all the wiring work etc.... where do the ballasts go etc... thanks
nope. its brand new, no instructions, it's suppose to be easy plug and play, just wondering where the wiring goes and how to remove the stock bulbs ?
Did you specify what type of bulb system when ordering the kit? Usually they send you the correct adapter so there is no need for instructions because it is very intuitive. Maybe you should post pictures of what you have so we can walk you through it. where did you purchase the kit? Do they not have customer support?
here are the pics,if anyone post an installation guide for me or if there's a diy video that would be great it's H11 size for the HID kit, 3000k
The first pic shows your entire kit. The bulbs have wires leading from the bulbs to a rubber grommet. There are 2 sets of wires coming out of the grommet. The set that is currently attached (the ones with with 2 small plugs) should plug directly into the 2 red and black wires coming out of the ballast. The red single wire coming out of the ballast (with the larger plug) should be plugged directly to your OEM plug that would normally attached directly to your OEM bulb. The second plug coming out of the bulb grommet (currently connected to nothing) looks like an adapter harness. Also keep in mind that the GenII Prius used a reverse polarity system so that I had to plug the OEM harness into the ballast backwards in order to make it work. Here is the exact same instruction in PDF form for the 9005/9006 bulbs. It works the same for you.
what do you mean plug the OEM harness into the ballast backwards in order to make it work. I installed them today, took me 3 hours, the left one works fine, the right one flickers than shuts off. Was soo tired, i just left it
You may need a relay harness, to fix the flickering. It seems like some kits require it to work on the Geniii and some kits don't. The harness only costs about $15 but requires a little more work to install. It's pretty simple and there are instructions available.
With Gen III if the bulbs are 35 watt you need either a relay or a canbus adapter. Some ballasts are made canbus "aware" and don't need a relay. Alternately you can install 55 watt bulbs and the canbus won't fuss. I don't know if they are too hot for the foglights. I am running 35s in mine, with a home made relay harness.
what does the relay look like ? if i used a canbus adapter does it guarantee it'll work ? doesn't my kit already have that canbus adapter ?? mine is a 35 watt kit
