I tried numerous searches and nothing has come up. Does any one know what is needed to convert an 08 tc's headlights to 07 or below, or if someone can direct me to the link, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

 

'08 uses an H11 for low-beam and 9006 for high-beam.
Thinking '07 and earlier use 9006 for both beams?
Thinking the only hard part would be finding 9006 connectors to switch out the H11 style.

 

you can trade with me

 

for an 06 its 9006 lows and 9005 highs,

 

not hard to do at all. just gotta take off the headlights, change the light harnesses form h11 to 9006 plugs, and put a pair of 05-07 headlights on. oh, and put the parking light in the low beam housing.

 

yea it sounds easy enough. does that involve splicing some wires? thanks for the input guy's

 

No splicing once so ever just get the h11 to 9006 harness plug in and your set.

 

nice! thanks guy's!

 

What'cha going to do with the 'o8 headlights?

 

Where can I find this H11 to 9006 harness? I had to make my own solution to install my ballast relay.

 

This place sells a 9006 -> H11 adapter. But im not sure if it will work the other way.

I researched this a lot. The headlights are a direct fit, but the lowbeams are different, like said.

There are no Hll to 9006 adapters, only 9006 to H11. you will have to get some 9006 plugs and cut the H11s then splice the 9006 plugs.

I got some 9006 plugs from cliff for like 5 bucks. I'm getting an 08 tC next month and switching the headlights, then I will sell the 08 projectors for around 300.

 

nice, that's what I needed to know thanks!

 

Question for you? ... Why the hell would you WANT to convert the 08 to earlier versions?

 

Some people, myself included, don't like the 08 headlights. I think they look cheap and gaudy.

 

so he can trade with me? haha seriously are you selling your 08s?

 

Unless a retro-fitted 06 headlight is going to replace the 08 OEM headlight, this is a complete waste of time and money. Projectors are infinitely better than reflectors.

 

GAH! You have no taste ... they are soooo much better than reflector type headlights ... and they look better. A lot of less cheap looking.

 

It's not even a true projector, it bleeds all over the place.

And you can't say I don't have taste, its my opinion dude. Just because you like something doesn't mean everyone has to.

I'll be very happy installing my 07 headlights when I get my 08 tc then selling the 08's for some bank and buying new mods with the money :D

 

Last time I checked my cutoff, it was pretty damn good. But I guess it's not a 'true' projector since it does allow some light above the cutoff. So tell me, what car comes with these 'true' projectors, because last time I checked, EVERY car has some glare.
