how do you guys run your jdm headlights???? do you use the inner lights for lows and the outer for highs...cause it seems to work alot better than setting them up like the domestic ones....

never. i use them how they were made to be used. if you try to run lows in the inside you will blind everyone. you may as well drive around all day with your highs on.

so they are made to be run like the domestic ones....alright...shouldnt they give off a better light output than the stock ones though??....and cant i adjust them al little by turning the dials on the back of the housings?Comment

they actually are a bit worse than OEM due to the nature of the lens design, which was really meant for RHD. you do get a better cutoff though. but to answer your question they should be set up like stock; low-outer high-inner.
for the corner light you can use either wedge bulb but the the non-blinking one (inners) will fit perfectly. if you want to use the blinking one you will need to transfer the wiring plug to the bulb holder of the non-blinking bulb. hope that made sense.
if you'd like you can also setup your jdm outers to have both high and low due to the H4 bulb (dual-filament). usually only one filament is used but you can take advantage of the other filament and use it. it takes a couple of relays and some wiring knowledge to do. the inners you can make DRLs or fogs. it's all preference!
good luck!Comment

1. why is this in the technical section?
2. just read the jdm headlight faq so you don't have to ask questions that have already been asked!
absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.Comment

i did do a search didnt find this...used jdm headlight wiring for keywords.....and my original question wasnt how they are supposed to be but how ppl with them ran them on their cars....but i understand where you are coming from with the comment...but none the less i understand your agrivation after all you did put that thread together.....and yes ive read it several times not just today either....thanxLast edited by IBCNYA; 08-30-2005, 05:59 PM.Comment
