I want better lighting but want to be sure I'll be happy with the conversion and that it is as simple as Plug & Play. Hmmm, I guess it must work though since some have already converted their Elises over, right? There's not much room behind the H1 bulb so I'm concerned the larger base of the HID bulb won't fit in the area available. Then the spring clips hold the bulb in place so the H1 bulb doesn't secure itself to anything (only held in place by clips). The H1 bulb only fits in one way due to the shape of the base. Mact333, you stated that the H1 bulbs twist in clockwise. Then the base of the HID bulb will have to be altered to fit the H1 housing, right? I suppose this just requires a little Dremel time? That may require running longer wires, right? The wires that lead to the H1 bulb are tightly wound with other wires and who know how long the wire actually is once freed from the other bulb wires. I'll be curious to see how all this fits in the Elise.įrom the sound of it, the original H1 connector has to be plugged into the ballast. also, please look at diagrams showing the difference between projector and reflector housing optics.HID is well suited for projector housings and the light pattern is not diffuse like it is for reflectors.for example, have you seen the light cutoff pattern for E36 M3 US housings vs euro ellipsoids.this will show the difference really clearly. That is why you can aim/adjust the beams just as if they were oem bulbs.have done it 4 times and have never been flashed.HID is not more blinding if aimed correctly.you might argue with me as you have done in past about this subject but this is my opinion.now for legality, well that is a personal choice, just like when you add aftermkt exhaust or go above the speedlimit.with projector housings, the beam cutoff is very sharp and it should be obvious where the beam is illuminating.to categorically say it is not "projecting properly" is just ease reserve judgement until you have done/tried it for yourself.
