If you'd like to upgrade your halogen headlights for something better, consider installing a set of projector beam headlight assemblies.
**Before you do, make sure it is legal for you to do so in your area. If it is legal, this video will help walk you through the process.

Nicely done Eric. Never Seize or some other type of product is a must. I think I have mentioned this before but when I was working with ROV's we used AquaLube because Never Seize in a salt water environment especially into Aluminum caused issues due to Electrolysis because of the metals in Never Seize. AquaLube always worked and never washed away. Great job Eric.

Immmmmm sooo happy these are back! I glad you took the time you needed! One thought. Generally I agree with mixing spades up. But the way it is now, if you take them out. Someone can connect the pos and neg together. And when it comes to soldering your wires before crimping. When you have uninsulated like you used, you can flow solder in after crimp. I like doing that when I have the time. Thanks again for the videos. These are just my dumb little thoughts. :)

Eric!! Love your videos, man! They came in very handy when I used to work on my 2008 Element SC. I had to part ways with my Ellie because some drunk driver smashed into it pretty badly in the middle of the night while my car was parked curbside, he totalled my Ellie. If that hadn't happen I'd kept the Ellie forever. Had to get a new car. It's still very satisfying to watch your videos. Hopefully one day Honda brings back the Ellie with a more capable engine.

Very nice upgrade. I do recall the vid with the comparison of different headlights and IIRC the LED was the best in terms of length of the beam also, which living in Michigan I definitely would want. Really glad to have you back, I, along with so many others missed your regular vids. Btw, I was a huge fan of the Fairmont series, and I did miss those regular vids, but understood your position it.

Eric, I'm so glad you're doing so well on your channels. I have an idea for a future video (or maybe you already have one on this subject). When reinstalling the bumper cover, how and why do the very ends never go back in like the day it was purchased? When I have to replace bulbs on my subie, I have to remove the bumper cover and it NEVER goes back on flush under the headlights.

@Dux96

Thanks for the video. I installed these on a 2006 Element LX. I've never done work like this, so took me closer to six hours. The wiring was frustrating; mine came with two reds, one blue one black. No power probe, had trouble figuring it out. I finally found a question on Amazon where Amerilite responded to pair red/black to ground, blue/black to power, which worked. I took the advice of several comments and used combination of insulated blades and heat shrink (hairdryer). Interesting to find out while removing the front bumper that I've been missing several plastic retainers. One thing, though. Once installed there's about 1/8-1/4" gap between the front bumper openings surrounding the headlights. The kit didn't come with any kind of seal or gasket. Do you have a recommendation how to seal or close that gap?
@NaokisRC
@NaokisRC 6 лет назад
Great to have you back Eric. And very greatfull you put those crimps on. I almost went mad over it. A little note, soldering and then crimping can cause bad crimps. Also those insulated crimps you spoke about arent weather proof. You can spray wax oil over the top to help with corrosion prevention. Also ebay do have oem style 2 way weather proof connectors like Fiat use
@artramirez3506

Great video as always Eric. Now take the old headlight assemblies and bake them open and do a retrofit video for your fans. That would be great. Thanks.
