the stock harness has a green wire, a black wire, and a white and green wire...

i can get my HID's to come on everytime, but the high beams (halogen) will never come on.

on the back of my HID bulbs there are two extra smaller wires that are used for the halogen (live wire, and ground) which wire from the stock harness (green, black or green & white) is the high beam wire?

How can i get those high beams to work?

i tried a search but had no luck

If you have one of the kits, you dont get high beams. You have to have a bi-xenon projector like used in an Acura TL (I believe this is it).

it was actually a kit off of ebay. do some searching around for Hi/low beam HID kits and they should turn up...im actually pretty disappointed that the hi's are extrememly dim but whatever, at least the HID's look awesome (i got the 8000k color)

i have some pics of just the HID's i'll take some more pics with the brights on. i'll post up some more pics this comig week once i get my clear fogs and pure white foglight bulbs.


keep in mind the headlight on the left is an aftermarket, blueish white bulb...compared to the 8000k HID's its nothing...

Amazing. I guess ill just stick with the Stangmods kit since the highbeams dont really do much. Thanks for posting up the pics.
