my HID kit should be comming in today. i got the mcculloch 6000k set with the upgrade harnesses that take power from your battery directly. my question is since the power is taken directly from the batt. that means it wont need to be plugged into the stock harness for power. does this mean ill have my stock harnesses dangling around under the hood? any help is appreciated

 

what upgraded harness are you talking about. i have that exact kit on my car and i never knew about any upgraded harness. my girl friend had the same kit on her car also.

 

ya what are you talkin about?

and if its not connected to the harness, how will it turn on?

 

yes it will still need to be connected to your stock harness buy only to power the relay

the ballast is basicly connect straight to the battery (WITH A FUSE IN-BETWEEN I HOPE) and the ground is basicly the car chassis and ONE stock harness will connect to the relay that comes with your "Upgraded harness" so you can power the relay and turn on ur headlights.

 

where did you buy your system and where did you see this upgraded harness that is available?

 

yea tekka is right, the hid harness needs the power from the stock harness so it "knows" when to turn on

 

got the kit from xenonpros.com

 

on mine, i tap in only one stock plug to turn on the relay. the passanger side plug is just dangling like you said.

 

i bought mine and hers from xenonpros.com also. mine came with an adapter plug that plugs directly to the stock plug that goes to the stock light bulb. then those wires run inline with the igniter and relay. after the wires come out of the relay you should have two wires that are set up to plug directly to the hid bulb that comes in the kit. you should not have any plug of any kind dangling anywhere. if you do i would be calling them up wondering whats going on.

from my experiance they are a good company. bought two kits and no problems.

 

i custom made my relay

 

how much is the kit gonna run you? i saw a sale in the sponsored area for $245 shipped...

EDIT: oops, 245 was for 5300k, 275 for 6000k. https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=101502

 

i have the 6000k's on mine. when i bought them i payed around 345. that was with overnight shipping. i couldn't help it. when i buy stuff i want it as soon as possible. :D
