| Hey guys,
I've been wanting to order the JDM headlights for my Corolla. I might end up doing a retro-fit later, but as of right now, I just wanted to get the headlights on my car and running. I know that the 9006 to H4 conversion requires some wiring, but will this adapter work? I googled for an adapter and it came up:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/auto-9006-ceramic-socket-and-plug-auto-socket-auto-bulb-socket/550168201.html
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HARNESS-9006-HB4-X-2-WIRES-SOCKET-HEAD-LIGHT-LAMP-BULB-CONNECTOR-MALE-FEMALE-FIT-/140608662629?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3ACorolla|Year%3A1995&hash=item20bcedec65&vxp=mtr
I'm really limited with my knowledge about all the lighting, so lighting gurus please chime in! My plan was to buy the JDM headlights, grab those adapters, and buy some H4 PIAA bulbs. Let me know if that will work.
P.S. - do the JDM headlights fit with the USDM grille?

| Will that work for what? It's just a 9006 to 9006 extension cord.
The JDM head lights do not fit the US grille (properly) and vise versa, you should have them matching.
To get the head lights working is a really complicated relay system, so if you don't need your high beams, I'd just leave the lows connected for now. | |

| If you give me time for all the parts to get here and you pay me in advance for the cost of parts and shipping ill make the harnesses for you. Theyre plug and play  | |

| Chris, All I have to say is a wise man once said to me "if you have a gift that gives you the opportunity to make money, take advantage of it." You might want to think about it. Even if you work on a set for 10 minutes a day for 20 days that's still profit and not time consuming. | |

| But I'm not in for taking advantage of people and their money  Plus, I'm too OCD for this kind of thing, and I don't want the liability and trouble if people don't like their lights or can't install them properly or run into issues months later. | |

| Does anyone have a wiring diagram they can post or send me (via email)? I bought the JDM headlights not knowing this information. Being that said, does anyone know how I can istall them? There's a 3 prong connector that is supposed to connect to the factory connections, so I am not sure what to do...any suggestions??? | |

| This is the wiring diagram that is posted to many sites. I have not used it though, I just went with HIDs.  | |
