View Full Version : HID harness question
Hi!
I have a Hid kit with a seperate harness (connected to the battery) where exactly should I connect this plug?

i wired them from the existing headlight connectors, it did have a relay and a few other bits and peaces which i didnt use

I did try to wire them to the original wiring using spade connectors but it won't light up so I have to use an extra harness connected to the battery. This green plug should be connected to the original relay so the Hid's light up when I turn on the switch inside the car..I guess. Can somebody help and tell me where is that relay?
Here's a picture how it looks like, the only thing I want to know is the green plug. Thanks in advance!

doesnt that go in to the existing headlight connecition inplace of the one from the ballast

Nope. The main point is to skip the stock Vx harness as it won't light up when I use it. That extra harness is a solution to that problem.
I guess that this plug should go to original dipped beam relay but I'm not quite sure..

you did check that the spade connectors were in the right side of the original vx connector didnt you? ie the correct polairty.
Im pretty sure you must of tried the other way round but just checking lol.

i put mine in the wrong way first time and they didnt work.. as iceman said, try swapping them ova.
We did mine last night, and I know for a fact that those wires go into the connections on the left hand headlight where the original bulb would've connected into the loom.
Red to yellow, black to brown.
I finally did mine too :)
The green plug went into the right headlight spade connector.
iceman_sri, Corsa Wheels: I did try the plug&play connection with Vx stock harness and I'm 100% sure I did it right and it's the stock harness' fault they didn't light up, it's just not enough strong to handle hids. Anyway thanks for help! :)
Them hids are mint and I don't regret buying 6000k cause they already have a slight blue tint...8000k are little too blue. Anyone got questions about fitting hids with the extra harness - just ask as I now know how to solve the problem :lol:
