Right, that's what I was referring to, the housings that are the same size and shape as an H4666 but accept an H4 bulb.

These are a few bucks cheaper and come with the 4666 to H4 wiring.

Any questions Hit me up on AIM "Badgerx88"

So how much would the UI-H4HL in 6000K kit cost? No option for 4300K or 5000K?

Those are the same ones you posted earlier but are cheaper through Amazon. So if I got those with the harness and an H4 hi/lo kit that should do it, right?

They're the same but com with harness and standard H4 bulbs for less. All you need is that and an H4 HID Hi/Lo kit of your choice to put in them.

This sounds great, I'm glad you showed me this stuff. I thought there was no way to get HIDs that worked like stock for my car. Looks like I can do the whole thing for around $140.

Are those harnesses definitely plug and play for my car, IE plug into the factory pigtails and then into H4s?

H4's use a standard halogen sealed beam connector. your car uses the twisted pin connector. that pigtail setup is nice, But if it was me id just re pigtail my car and have less connections that will corrode.

Yeah that's the "best" way. I'm just giving him a plug and chug route to get his feet wet.

ILuvPizzaTimes10 05-27-2010 01:22 AM

yeah but Alex is no dummy. id say send him the right way first to be honest. Unless alex you want easy "for now" i just hate any kind of aftermarket "ready" made harness. i have seen Way too many shit the bed. and as we all know lose a ground on an HID kit and you mine as well kiss the ballast good bye if it keeps cutting on and off.

BrokenFeather78 05-27-2010 01:26 AM

I'm repinning mine when I get my kit. Mainly because the stock connector has already seen better days.

It's funny how I started with fixing my hosed DRL setup and It's snowballed into scrapping all crap connectors and going full LED and HID.
