A HUGE THANK YOU to Frank and Earl for inspiring me to do this. You guys were correct - this is one of the best upgrades I have ever done to my car. It's a definate nanner job :bananaman :bananaman :bananaman -Corbin
Corbin, Love the look of those headlights. I must have missed were you said you got them from. Are they mail order or can you get them from local car dealer? Thanx, Thom
I got them through a local Mustang supply house, but they are avaliable from Mustangs Plus, and a few other places. They are a bit expensive, but work very well and you only need to replace the bulb when it goes out not the whole assembly. Check out www.mustangsplus.com -Corbin
corbin, glad it worked out for you. i know on mine, i get flashed for having my brights on, when they are on low. doesn't piss me off, just makes me glad i did the upgrade. before i didn't get flashed with the brights on...frank...:bananaman :bananaman :bananaman :bananaman
Thanks Corbin, Im going to attempt this light conversion shortly. I cant wait to be able to see where i am going at night. Thanx again, 74Maverick, Thom:bananaman
Frank - which area of that Ford Probe did you get that relay box out of (i.e engine compartment/under dash/etc.)? I checked out a Probe last time I was at a wrecking yard and couldn't find the box, so either it was already gone or I wasn't looking in the right place.
read through the post. sounds great. Did you use the stock sockets to send the signal to the relays? and, I am still confused, Frank. Did you just replace your stock relays or did you also get a new housing and bulbs, like Corbin? The Painless Performance kit used has gone up $50 posted here. Ah, inflation. I think these were the Tri-Bars he used. These have a blue tint yall used auto zone DF005 relays and a radio shack("got a hobby box from Radio Shack. It is about 6" long, about 4.5" wide, about 2" deep") or ford probe pass fuse box. wire and electrical tape for the harnesses. And found wire connectors to fit over the bulb flat pins.
This is on my to do list. Already did a horn relay. Next the headlamps and possibly the blower motor. Trying to replace the high load circuits for piece of mind. Cant run HID up here unless its factory. Factory HID has a definite cutt of point for the height of the light beam built into the reflector. Without this those lights blind on coming traffic. Big fine up here.
JEGS (not zoops but I bought these cuz they be glass not plastic. in case I upgrade to HID ) summit sells the zoops and they say they take H4 and Zoops sales line say they take h2? Russ, any input? Sweet. I was thinking light blue HID to match the paint job.
