BG projector headlight

[Guest]

hi there, im new

I'm swapping some projector lights into my car and i was wondering if any one could tell me..........

When on highbeam, should the low beam bulbs be lit too?

like low beam - projector only

highbeam - both projector and high

or should it just be independant?

I've done the same on my BD5 RS.

Low beam = projector only

High beam = projector + high beam

Check this vid out that someone went to the trouble of doing for me once

Those are cool.. so they should fit in my rs those kinda headlights then? mines a BD5 RS Leggy... Where can i get these lights from?

[Leighos]

Try Trademe, thats where I got mine.

They're a bit on the pricey side, mine were $50 for the pair.

[Guest Rugged_RS]

Sweet, they look like they will fit, so they are called bug eye?

[Guest]

^^^^Projector or face-lift Gen2. Got mine off trademe cheaps. $60 plus $12 post for the pair. Local wrecker said $140 each! ....pffffffft....thought that was cheap anyway.

OK i got mine done, i had to wire the low-beam wire from the light to ground. Seems odd but i found it on SLi forums and OzLiberty, seems to work a trick. Now the low's stay on with the high's, wicked.

Thanks Leighos, i actually checked out your video before posting

[Leighos]

Yea if you have a BD/BG then they will fit, bit of a prick to wire up though, the later models have a completely different wiring harness to the headlights.

They really should be called face-lift head lights, but I guess because of the projector lamp people refer to them as 'bug-eye'.

[Guest Rugged_RS]

Ah sweet, yeah cheers for that guys.. Not too worried bowt the wiring, As long as they fit ;D

[Guest]

yeah don't worry about the wiring, its really easy as, you just got to match the wires colour for colour to your car and earth the yellow one from the light. hey presto ;D

Nice, i'm not a fan of the big spots you have in the video myself. but then i only have the early bumper with the rs spot lights so it's better than mine.

[Joker]

they are OEM have covers for them now...

[ReubenH]

Yeah, those big spotties are stock for GTB limiteds.

[KwS]

i like them personally.... would quite like a set myself, but who knows if i have the wiring or not (probably not, im just a standard gtb).

[Joker]

yea they have their own separate "fog light" switch next to driving lights
