wrxharrison Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I have a 95 Legacy L AWD, just picked it up. I saw that there are JDM Projector headlights available. Is there any guide to how to install them? Plug and play? Or do I need to get crazy with the wiring? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zues Marine Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 before anyone goes and links to camaron's plug and play harness, this is a 95... the wiring is different..so we have to make our own here.. are you going straight to HIDs or will you run stock bulbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooln30 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I like the idea of the projectors but my two piece headlights with HIDs are brighter. I did a side by side comparison with my friends 98 with projectors and mine has a noticeably better light displacement and with the hids are far brighter. The two piece HL are a really good design and I love how much they light up the road. Now the factory fogs are ok but I would like the JDM fogs. Their glass too which is great.

spooln30 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 No tisk! Only awesomeness!!! LOL. I installed HID's on my Arctic Cat 500 atv as well and they work great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyposeur Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Sorry spooln, but that's a bad idea. You are blinding oncoming traffic. I also have a 95 L and I installed JDM projectors and HIDs. They are unbelievable. I converted them to USDM light pattern. The wiring was a little tricky but it was easy enough to figure out with all the DIY threads out there. My install was a little more complicated as I wired in the driving lights (which I don't use but may someday. BTW what bulbs are the JDM driving light bulbs?) as well as making it possible to run the HIDs as well as switching to stock bulbs. I also installed a set of Angel Eyes AKA Halos.

spooln30 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Sorry spooln, but that's a bad idea. You are blinding oncoming traffic. So does every car/truck that comes with HIDs from the factory. I have my left HL pointed more downward then the right, which does help with oncoming traffic. I could guarantee my HL are less blinding then a newer pick up truck with or without HID's when they are behind you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sludgeroo Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I've never liked halo's but those are cool. What are their purpose anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zues Marine Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 they serve no purpose and i haven't turned them on in months, haha red on the front of the car is illegal here anyway so it just makes the projector more apparent when it's off, really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sludgeroo Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I see, I wish I could do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stang70Fastback Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 If I want to blind oncoming traffic, I just turn on my 520ATP driving lights with the Narva RangePower +50 bulbs and watch everything burst into flames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
