486 viewsHow the HID bulb looks when installed. It can only go in one way so it's pretty easy. Don't do it now as we need to get the electronics installed first!

484 viewsLooking down into the bulb housing cavity. The reflector will need to be moved forward just a tad, like a couple millimeters, to clear the taller HID bulb. If you get flickering or the bulb doesn't light up after installing the HID bulb then chances are good that the bulb is touching the reflector and shorting out.

478 viewsHow I attached the lower outside mount to the bracket. Slowly snug the bolt down until you can't move the belt's lower outside mount, then back of about 1/2 a turn, just so it can move with minor effort.

478 viewsWhat I did was take a short piece of wire and solder it to the pin on the VR and then shrink-wrapped it to keep it insulated. I then crimped a spade connector at the end of the wire. I have a quality (a.k.a. expensive) wire crimper so I know my crimps are good and will last. The right pin (red wire) of the VR connects to the right spade/tab on the fuel gauge. The left pin (black wire) is what gets the +12 volts. Note the spade connetors are being used -- the red wire has a female spade connector and connects to the fuel gauge while the black wire has a male spade connector and is connected to the +12 volt black wire from the gauge cluster.

478 viewsLooking that the bulb reflector/cover from the front of the headlight. Use the eraser end of a pencil through the opening to GENTLY push the reflector forward -- towards the headlight glass -- so the HID bulb won't touch it. Every panel on the reflector is EASILY bent so take your time and GO SLOWLY! You want to push from the center of the reflector and just a couple millimeters. Test fit the HID bulb and gently wiggle it around, feeling that the tip doesn't touch the reflector.
