Just got back home. As always I took a stroll through the explorer section to see what the EF guys (and girls ;) ) were up to. I also chased after vroomzoomboom to bug him about his sport a bit, and ended up on a ford test drive event with Jay :eek:
Pics!
The plug on the stock harness is to small, you will need to cut it off and put a 9006 connector in to connect to the ballast. I don't remember the wire colors on the explorer but whatever is black is ground.
I waltzed up there right as he was leaving so I guess I missed that part. I did catch you and Explorersport77 leaving, I just have to dig through pictures to find it later...
I also noticed Jay went on my FB album and tagged everyone in my pics. So I sign on today and I see people I've never...
It was good seeing EF out again, although I don't know if it was me, but your group seemed almost half the size of last years group. Also, carlisle really screwed you guys with the location, you were like in the middle of lightnings and expeditions..
Anyways I got some pics of you guys there...
You suggesting that a tune and exhaust only almost 5000lbs suv with a v6 will rape a SRT8 jeep. A flex ecoboost runs low 14's with a few hundred pounds less weight, I predict the explorer sport will be running mid 14's. Who knows how the engine is detuned since its the least powerful 3.5...
I've reskinned explorer seats this way before, trust me when I say its a pain in the ass and totally not worth it. You'd have really baggy looking seats
I got this idea from someone on the F150 forum, and honestly a lot of retrofits are popping up on explorerforum (which I'm glad to see), so I thought it'd be cool to compile a list of the completed retrofits, organized by generation, so anyone contemplating a retrofit can get an idea of how it...
Philips Xtreme bulbs will work, also get a 9007 headlight harness so you'll get full power to the bulbs, like this one

Also, for the fog lights:
Dead Link Removed
Since the projector is an open design, you MIGHT get lucky by leaving the bulb out for a little bit, no promises there though. The better thing to do would be take the housing out, take the bulb out, and sit it inside overnight to let it equalize.
Simple, they are both crap.... They are poorly manufactured halogen projectors with plug and play HID kits installed.
If you want good HID projectors, you'll have to build a set of headlights yourself, or pay someone to do it.

I highly doubt it. Theirs a reason that TMH's for the explorer look like spaghetti, and its not because a 5.0 explorer has an abundance of room under the hood.
