Airwolf9090 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Okay short story the front on my wag was messed up by last owner i haven't done nothing to it, But i am unable to see at night the headlights are junk can see 10feet if lucky, Now i was looking at a set of JDM BG5 projector headlights on ebay and was wondering would i need to add anything of just splice the wires? I am looking at sets like the ones i have posted below, and for everyones enjoyment here is my front end, lol http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/3158/48113101513355782980492.jpg Uploaded with ImageShack.us http://www.ebay.com/itm/95-99-JDM-SUBARU-LEGACY-BG5-PROJECTOR-HEADLIGHTS-/221224502776?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item33820205f8&vxp=mtr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyposeur Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 It depends. If you want to use H3 bulbs it is is just a matter of splicing wires and cutting the slots in the housing to fit USDM connectors. Camroncamera sells plug n play connectors. If you want to install HIDs there is some extra work involved. I recommend converting the projector headlights to USDM light pattern which involves taking them apart and modifying them. Either way you go you won't be disappointed. They are pretty amazing, especially with some HIDs. Some of t best money I ever spent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiyo1990 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 There is a vendor/member on here that makes the harnesses for USDM to JDM headlights. Real good write up. I can not find him right now, but will post or pm you if i do find it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cal71919 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Too bad your not closer to me, I have a hood and front bumper assembly for your wagon. Let us know how the swap goes when your done. I'd like to do this mod in the next month or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airwolf9090 Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 THanks everyone, As for the bumper and hood i think the only reason i haven't done nothing to the front is the lower rad support is pushed in about 5inchs and the bumper mounts are gone, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zues Marine Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 ^why are you dropping hundreds on jdm stuff if your rad support and stuff is all jacked up? http://www.4zero1motorsports.com/product-p/4z1-jdm-h4.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airwolf9090 Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 Because if i ever get a good body car i will just swap the stuff over because i am looking for a nice body Legacy outback around a 96+, And as for this car it maybe jacked up in the front but it runs and drives like as if it was brand new, I only paid $500 for the car and in the first year i put over 20,000miles on it, It has never let me down. I just put a new clutch in and changed the front CV axles, the 5-speed feels great, besides it needing new tires the AC/Heat Everything electric works on it, Anyone who rides in it can't believe how it rides, Drives, and runs so great.
