Aftermarket lighting. Driving lights, fog lights, rock lights, HID, halogen. Make your Ford Explorer light up the night!!
This is my first thread on here, Anyways Would i need a Canceler and/or relay harness for a 1995 ford explorer HID kit? I found a hid kit on http://hidnation.com/9007hidkits.html Would i need a relay and/or canceler? Since im a student i need to save money so yeah. I have the basic headlight bulbs in there right now. I was thinking about getting this too http://www.amazon.com/Sylvania-SilverStar-Ultra-Halogen-Headlight/dp/B000M5Y72A/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1364774814&sr=8-3&keywords=9007+headlight+bulb Right now the housing on my driver side headlight has water in it and i have no idea how to clean it. I just need to save money but i really want to do this hid conversion if its under 60 bucks.
So A few months back I attempted to Wire up some Under dash LED's, Needless to say, I failed. I have the leds and resistors, But I dont know what I should be mounting it on. I checked all the Circuit Citys in my city and they only have these Rectangle half foot things. Im just wondering if there is alternatives for mounting the LED's onto boards, Say plastic? Or thin wood? Any suggestions?
I went wheelin last night around a lake and was running my hella black magic lights the whole time. I went into a puddle and the glass lenses cracked. The heat from the lamps mixed with the cold of the puddle and caused both of them to crack in many different places. Just a word of advice, If you are running higher wattage bulbs in your lights like I was and get them wet from a puddle or something they might crack from the temperature shock. Just a warning to everyone out there. Oh yeah, I had to order new lenses for them at $75 each. The entire black magic kit was only $200. Costly mistake on my part!
Alright guys...I went out and bought a pair of license plate light sockets and installed them in the headlight assembly. These lights are called city lights. This is widely used in European cars such as Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, etc... If you've seen them, you'll know what I'm talking about. I got the idea from this site, check this out... I'll have the pics posted later tonight. It's awesome!!! Dead Link Removed
I believe there is a post a few down, that is about a similar subject. However, I think it is slightly different. I would like to run another set of fogs but this time wire them to turn on when ever the headlights turn on. My problem is I would do not want to dim my headlights. I believe, if I run them in a parallel circuit, it should not be a problem but I do not know how to do that. Any suggestions? Lights will go next to the license plate (I apologize for the very crappy photoshopping job)
I need some new foglights for my new airdam that is coming in the mail. It looks like this: I was thinking about this yesterday on my way home, and the idea of Excursion fog lights popped into my head. They look about the right size, but I'm just concerned about how I would wire these up, or could they just plug into the stock harness? Here is a set on eBay: Dead Link Removed MattAdams, anyone, please shed some light on this!
