I can't stress how grateful I am for this video. I have factory HIDs and I wanted to get rid of them, but now since I've seen this, I'm going to do this exact thing. Hopefully it works and I can stop having problems with my lights.
Where did you get the wire that goes from the ballast to the headlight? Ive been looking everywhere and thats the only wire I need to finish this. Thank you for your videos theyve helped a lot.
The Ballast system, what does it do? I just bought and installed the new headlights and the bulbs followed this vid. I just didn’t buy the ballast and I’m waiting to get it before I try testing the lights.
Do these aftermarket headlights work with the standard bulbs? I swap in LED bulbs and the project stopped working so I’m looking at new assembles and was wondering how easy this was to do and I would need to do any extra wiring
I want LED bulbs for these units but I cant seem to find the proper size... I have the halogen units but was told I could replace the halogen bulbs with LED bulbs
Here's a LONG explanation... You can replace the halogen with led's but your gonna have a light out warning on your dash because the Dart's ECU is codded to read a certain resistance from the halogen bulbs and the LED bulbs draw such low resistance that the car thinks there is a burnt bulb. The LEDs themselves will work just fine but like I said, there's no way to get rid of the warning. This applies to all the exterior lights of the car (headlight, drl/turn signals, park lights/side makers, reverse lights, license plate light). You can use LEDs in the interior of the car and in the trunk with absolutely zero issues. Resistors allow you to run LEDs without any warnings on the dash. The down side to resistors is they get REALLY HOT! Can Bus decoders / capacitors won't get rid of the warning. Alpha OBD2 with the OBD Link MX+ won't work. No LED kits work either, even if they say error free.... When it comes to the headlamps, Darts don't use traditional high or low beams. The bulbs are actually the same brightness regardless of if you have your brights on or not. The only reason why your headlights get brighter when you turn your brights on is because there is a shaft built into the headlight housing themselves and when your low beams are on, that shaft is lowered and cuts off part of the visibility but obviously when the brights are on, that shaft is lifted therefore illuminating all the light. That's why when you turn your brights on, you hear a loud thump. Even then, if you do end up putting led's....your not gonna see that much better upwards because the cut off point of that shaft with your low beams. Hopefully I helped and made sense...
@@yuma_da_puma brooo thanks so much for explaining that, I've always wondered why i hear a thump when i hit the brights. i installed white led's on my darts headlights that came with halogens and i instantly got the code but it doesnt bother so much so i kept it how it was, they lasted a little over a yr till one of them started flickering
