Smile headlight HID problem????Help

i am having a hard problem trying to hook up headlight for 350z. My problem is that i have HID HEADLIGHts on my car, my car was stolen and they took the headlights. i found out that factory HID headlights cost too much... so i bought the lesser expensive headlights for the half of the price, which are not HID. SO I AM TRYING TO MAKE THEM WORK, but iam having a hard time hooking them up... do you think it might work???

It'll work, but you'll have to cut off the plug on your car's harness side of the connection and wire it seperately. Let me see if I have the pinouts for the non-xenon....

I'd suggest getting the OEM HID harness at least off ebay. It'll fit where the halogen harness fits and you'll be able to re-wire that instead of just cutting into your factory harness.

hidplanet.com

poke around, do your homework.

But before you butcher your harness you should check classifieds for used hid units.

I don't think he wants to convert to HID. He is going the other way. I could be wrong. It happened once before....
