actually just did some reading. would be better to get aftermarket HID's as the ballast would have been removed from the headlight along with oter components that the car came with from fatory.

all good thread can be closed sory lol

fark it cold out :D

anyway took off hes headlight but hes xenons are different to urs, maybe because its a NA

but the yellow wire plug should go into the resistor and the 2 wires should go into the back of the middle globe, there will be a rubber gromet with 2 wires there most likely.

actually shouldnt be to hard to fix, solder the globe wires and then plug in the yellow wire plug and solder the other 2 wires

edit: ill be at my missus' saturday in lalor if you want me to try and fix it

NA's didn't have xenons

unless its a gt-v maybe?

what do the parkers look like?

a circle, or a square?

no you say should be plugged at the back of the light.

this is the back of the light here

im thinking the yellow plug could be connectors for the headlight adjustment from inside the car.

prob be easy to pull the headlight out and see if anything else is tucked in there.

thanks anyways nick. it is pretty cold outside lol

r34 xenons dont have washers, so they are illegal

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
