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.

456 viewsHere are the resistors...beefy! They are 3 watts each. If you use a smaller wattage resistor they will get hot!! These will get warm but not hot. One is 1-ohm and the other 16-ohms. You wire them in series so you get a total of 17-ohms resistance. So you can use any combination of resistors you want, just shoot for 17-ohms. This puts my gas gauge needle right on the first white mark (left side) of the red Reserve section but the needle will go a little past the Full mark when the tank is topped up. Add more resistance to have the needle move down more but I'm guessing that a total of 20-ohms would be the max to use.

454 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.
