Hey Guys, I have been looking for projectors on ebay forever and these are the first ive ever found, especially that cheap. Wish i would have come across them sooner. I have started my own custom setup based off the posts on here. I will be putting together pics etc soon , but just thought i would share this with you all. I am a fairly new member by the way and so far am loving this forum. There is alot of useful info here. You guys have inspired me to do up my galant. Had it for 5 years now and am just now getting to customizing it. I guess i just never new the potential until now. anyways hope this helps some of you>

Not to sure about the 3 led part, but otherwise they seem nicely done. Though I'd wonder how they figured out separating the hi and lo beams on the US Galant headlights...

Hmm...id be cautious with these lights. Its pretty strange how they moved the turn signal to face forward. And that pic of the silver Galant looks photo shopped. But hey i could be wrong. Buy them and let us know how they work out.

The back looks like 8G JDM headlights, so these would require standard mods to fit our USDM 8G Galants.

I think they look like they take H1's. I actually bought some projectors from a kid for $25. they were for a 93 civic. Very similar in design. They are probably made my Sonar. Anyways i bought them off craigslist to disect them for my custom made using my original housings. They were H1 bulbs. I had bought H4 hid before i decided to go this route. I actually took my dremel tool to the housing of the H4 HID bulb and was able to make it the size i need for the H1. The light out puts in the same place as the H1 so i thought i'd try it and it worked out great. I will post pics soon of my little project. These really are not that bad though.......

Those heads look very, very nice. Also seems to take H1+H7 bulbs, which is neat. I'd buy them in a heartbeat if they explicitly specified that they are JDM fitment, but I won't be wasting $300 getting them to Norway only to find out they are USDM-spec. On the other hand, if somebody in the US bought them, test fitted them and found out they are JDM fitment, Ill be happy to take them off their hands. :)

csj
01-21-2009, 09:54 AM
...so, to save us from spending money unnecessarily, I just emailed the seller to ask whether they are USDM or JDM fitment spec, and if he's willing to ship to Norway. ;)

why you could just bought H1's if you have H.I.D.'s they connect the same anyway.

*Item will require H1 light bulbs.
*It will come with Halogen H1 light bulbs.
*Item will not be compatible with xenon HID kit

Looks like its gonna be a projector project.

Because i bought them for my stock headlights. H4 fit, the new projectors i'm working on are H1, I could just go buy HID H1 bulbs for 20 bucks, but money is hard to come by these days. So yeah I know, but it worked and I had them already!!!!!!! More fun to. Ultra Custom?!!!!! hahahahaha

IceDouTGaLanT
01-21-2009, 09:09 PM
you can use hids, but im sure the projector is a halogen projector so it wont spread light very great as if it was replaced with a true HID projector.

But on my 07 camry, it has halogen projectors and after i installed my hids on that it was 10X better. so IDK

Im willing to bet its as simple as just buying H1 bulbs. Since they both operate as on/off only so long as the plug going in to the ballast is the same (which Im willing to bet) then it should just swap right in. Id wait for someone to chime in that knows for sure, but maybe throwing up a picture of the connector to your ballast and see if someone else here can put one up with H1's.

you can use HID in halogen projectors, your just not going to get the output of HID projectors. either way the output is still going to be good. and if you really wanted to swapping out the projectors with HID ones wouldn't be that hard either.

They look decent, but you'll prob have to worry about them fogging up with condensation like most eBay aftermarket headlights do...

That all depends on how you treat your car (parked outside, driven in the rain, etc.)
These aftermarket headlights I bought last spring hasn't fogged up.

Those wires look insane. I gather the smaller wires are for the LED's. I'm wondering if the "main" wire will just splice into the electrical or will it have an H4 plug at the end? Considering the description says no modification is needed.

Also, is it for certain that these use H1 bulbs? For both the projector and the other light? Personally, I wouldn't even use another bulb in the non-projector side - unless it was HID, too, but that would mean another set of ballast. Good thing bulbs are now "cheap".

It'll bolt in with no mods. It's not JDM. Here's the back of a JDM headlight from Depot-Auto-Lights

i thought cars with front facing turn signal in the headlights had to have side markers in the fenders its a law if im not mistaken. i dont know how well its enforced tho.

I actually like this design. When I had LED turn signals, you couldn't even see that they were on (blinking) during the day. At night, it wasn't much better. I ended up switching back to amber bulbs.

With front facing turn signals, you'll now be able to see LED turn signals clearly and they'll look better with HID.

Gotta say I'm really not a fan of these. They look really tacky to me. I dont know. I think I would chop the three leds and make a custom piece with amber leds. Could also use the led strips stated before and cut them into smaller strips or something. Plus, with the headlights on those three leds don't look like the would be bright enough to be seen as a blinker. Also would cut the wires of the halo rings. They look horrible to me. Just not a fan of the halo rings. Look like a decent project to work with but I think I would rather buy parts and build my own projectors with good parts for the same price.

"Dear buyer,

We are very sorry about this.
We were suppose to ship out your order on time. When we were packing the item, we found out our supplier provided us defective shipment. I then drove to the other vendor to get the exact item with perfect condition. This is the reason of the delay."

i donno if thats a good sign, but am sure its not. but i ordered my headlight on the first day they were on ebay and until today ther not shipped out yet so i emailed the ebey seller and thats what he said back

"Dear buyer,

We are very sorry about this.
We were suppose to ship out your order on time. When we were packing the item, we found out our supplier provided us defective shipment. I then drove to the other vendor to get the exact item with perfect condition. This is the reason of the delay."

I wouldn't trip. At least the seller went out of his way to make sure you're going to get headlights that aren't jacked up.

Paypal is really no guarantee against getting scammed - just ask the folks who went through that last bogus group buy and were shafted by Pay-not-your-Pal.

Damn nice lights, i went as far as asking if they do a size that will fit my euro galant, this is what they said to me

''The headlights moulding will be the same.
The only difference will be the harness.
This item is for US models. For Euro, rewiring required.
Best regard,
Racing_guys
Office hrs Mon-Fri 10a.m to 6:30p.m
Please email us if any problem regarding your order. ''

This this sound right, rewiring does, but the size will be different wil it not?

Im a bit wary as they have cheap-ass Springs and alarms in their ebay shop.

csj
01-30-2009, 04:00 AM
If they are made for US Galants, then they will be shorter than the European ones and will probably require modification to fit. It might be possible to make them fit and look good, but I think you would need a US-sized grille as well to avoid gaps between the headlights and the [JDM] grille.

And yeah, the other cheap-ish looking stuff they have also put me off a bit.

Not the best pictures , i just finished putting them on my car
to start of... they look great on the car , and i tried 8000k HID bulb in ther and works fine
the fitment is great , no issues
the wirring is ok, they have both bulbs on each head connected to an H4 adaptor , that works fine too. you turn on the healights and the projector comes on then to turn on the hight beem ,, the projector goes off then the other projector light comes on ..
i didnt try the halos yet , needs wires , fuze , switch , that i dont have yet , i should get that done tomorrow
but as of now,, the headlights fit with no problem , they look great, the bulbs that were sent are cheap yellow ones,, am going to keep the 8000k HID in for now.
o and one more thing,, the plug for the signal in the passenger side is short , so i had to remove the clip the holds the wire to the body of the car just to extend it ,, the driver was fine...i cant get a good look at them yet ,, its dark the car is dirty and i have no grill yet( had the vr4 heads and new style grill, so now i need help on finding a grill that goes with the new heads)

i'm too lazy to look it up, but search for the high beam/low beam fix. its pretty easy and will make it to where your projectors stay on when your high beams come on (how its supposed to work). Since our cars come stack with the bi-xenon its designed to shut off the low beam filament when the high beam filament comes on. other than that looks good. good pickup. get more pics with halos when your done.

Good job, Galant4life.


BTW, is high beams even necessary with HID's? I know I don't use high beams anymore. When I buy these headlights, I won't even put a bulb in the other side. I'll just upgrade the H4 bulbs to H1. I'm probably due for new bulbs as it is.

Just to clarify - it comes with H1 bulbs for the projector, and for the wiring harness, it has a standard H4 plug?

yea, each headlight has H1 for the projector and H1 for the high beam, but they connected both the hight and low beam H1 bulbs in each head wired with a plug just like the H4 plug and plugs straight to the h4 plug in the car
So to put HID's in, you would have to just forget about the wiring they made , and just put the HID's straight to the projector and just rewire the high beam with a separate switch , what i did was that i plugged the HIDs straight to the headlight plug then rewired the hight beam to the fog light switch , and just made a new switch for the bottom fog lights,, look at my cardomain page

Yeah, the LED's you can tap straight into the turn signals if you want. I'll be doing it that way and I can finally use my LED turn signals again. A switch should be added, though. I imagine it would be a pain in the ass once those LED's on the headlight or angle eyes burn out.
Like you, I'm not going to use the high beam portion, just going for the dual headlight look, not functionality.

Yes, the grill is from ebay. Unfortunately the fitment of the grill sucks. There is a nice size gap between the hood and top of the grill. If you look in the pics you can see what I'm talking about. The grill is being held by zip ties.

If you want HID's then you have to wire them up differently. You will have to buy an H1 HID kit and plug them straight to your stock harness.



If you don't want HID's, then you do not need buy anything else for these headlights. The headlights already come with the bulbs, which are H1 bulbs in both the low beam and the high beam.

(I'm not explaining this to galant4life as he gets it - I'm explaining this to others that seem to have a hard time comprehending) Take the halo and LED wires and connect them straight to the corresponding (positive, negative, etc) wires on the turn signals or the foglights wires. Both of those lights (fog and turn signals) are operated by a switch. Turn either of those lights on, and the halo and LED lights turn on. Very simple installation and you won't need any extra switches to install.

Connect the wires using self-tapping wire connects, readily available at Radio Shack or online. This way you don't have to cut any wires to make the connection from LED wire to turn signal or fog light wire. My suggestion would be to tap into the turn signal wires.

bro its just one plug that you connect to the h4 plug in under the hood,,both the hi and lows are connected by one plug that plugs in straight to you oem H4 plug,,

grr.... how can i make this easier....

umm.. ok

I want to split the highs and the lows so that i have one bulb for each... How would I do that thru the OEM Plug.. cause there are only 3 holes (3 colored wires)..

(I'm not explaining this to galant4life as he gets it - I'm explaining this to others that seem to have a hard time comprehending) Take the halo and LED wires and connect them straight to the corresponding (positive, negative, etc) wires on the turn signals or the foglights wires. Both of those lights (fog and turn signals) are operated by a switch. Turn either of those lights on, and the halo and LED lights turn on. Very simple installation and you won't need any extra switches to install.

Connect the wires using self-tapping wire connects, readily available at Radio Shack or online. This way you don't have to cut any wires to make the connection from LED wire to turn signal or fog light wire. My suggestion would be to tap into the turn signal wires.

Which Signal wire? If i remember there are 3 of them... I dont want my halo's to blink with my signal.... unless there is a way to get those leds to blink with the signals.. that might be cool....

1 wire is the ground that you would split to the ground of the high and the ground of the low.
then you need to determine which is the high and low positive from the h4. and run the one to the high and then the other to the low. It's just like going from H4s to H1s and H7s for JDMS

Oh... I think I get what you mean... so... I would have 2 black negs coming out of the plug and one connected to the hi and the other to low.. Do you know what guage wire would I have to use and would I have to change the OEM fuse?

h4 bulb wont fit in ther,,you need h1 bulb for both....
you can only fit h1 bulbs,,so your best choice is to get 2 h1 hid bulb kit,,,but thats only if you wana have hid's in the hight beam.and the lows,,,thats up to you

So the h1 hid bulbs fit inside the housing with no modification at all? Mine came in today and the stock bulb in the projector fits snug as it is while the non projector side has a lil bit more room to play with. The hid bulbs which are on the way looks to be bigger/longer.

Thanks for the clarification.

In my case, I do not have any existing HID ballasts/ignitors because my current headlights are still stock. I purchased these eBay projector headlights, and now I'm gathering that I just have to purchase two of those $60 H1 HID 8000k kits (which should include only the bulbs and ballasts, I assume) from Supervtec on eBay and just plug them in?

lol thats what i have to doo i think?? but what about the wire harness then?? that has to be replaced or stock can handle h1 hids without frying itself and also is it going to be wired differently since i want both the projector and non-projector on at the same time i guess what i am tryin to say is a dual low look :S.

You can always just make a mold out of the USDM grille and wrap it with CF or just make a JDM look-a-like. I like the look of the '01 bumpers except for those guards at the bottom for the radiator. I'm thinking about just cutting those out, so all you will see is the intercooler (whenever I go FI).

thats how my bumper is. I cut it because last December I thought I was going to boost it while auto, but I decided not to so now, my bumper's been cut to fit a big intercooler. lol

You will only 'need' one HID kit for these bulbs since they have a plug and play harness on them. Then you will 'need' two sets of bulbs (one set comes with the HID kit, one set is a set of JUST the HID bulbs). It really isn't that confusing is it?

this is the h4 connector which is connected to both the hi and low beams. fyi, just like stock heads, when hi's are on, lows and fogs are off, so you would have to get relays to get them all on at the same time.

for 4 HID's you would have to buy 2 sets.

One set of ballasts, two sets of bulbs. But you should both remember the beam pattern won't be the most optimum as these are NOT HID Projectors. The beam dispursion, or cutoff won't be like it is supposed to be. If you really want HID in the projectors you should change out the entire projector for a proper HID projector unit.

LED's are just sick, IMO. I know they look nothing like the new AUDI headlights, but just the thought. The other day, a new A3 passed by me as I was driving and I gave him props. I haven't done that in quite a while, but seeing those LED's at dusk was just tight as hell. I'm glad these headlights have LED's.

Well ok! I received mine yesterday... I was installing it, and noticed when it comes to wiring.... I am lost... I was thinking of wiring the leds to the turn signal and the halos to the signal's Parking light mode... But I cant figure out which one is which and what is pos and neg. there are 3 wires... If I am right one is for the blinking and the other is for the on.. How would I be able to do this with out accidentally screwing anything up... or in fact burning something....

Another thing is HID's I ordered the H1's 12k and 10k (I was thinking of the dual look but not now since I like how I now have hi beam....) Well I is there still a way to wire them so that I still the hi beam? And would I have to change the fuse from the 10 to 15 or more?
