95 HIDs

I haven't found anything for converting the sealed beam headlights on a 95 to HIDs. What would i have to do to get them? And is it a lot of work?

Thanks in advance.

 

i have a 97 but same stuff and i would like info as well if anyone knows

 

I had some in my old Nissan Hardbody. I got the lights of of Ebay then added the HID kit later. Search 6054 or 7x6 retro kits. they are there and can be had.

 

I cut mines from the back and took out the old helogen light and glue the hid bulb back on

 

i figured thats what i would have to do.

 

it has held up pretty good. or just buy some already made in ebay

 

I just ordered these from ebay:

You would have to buy new h4 headlight housings, and then xenon kit with h4 bulbs.

 

how was the install? did you have to do a lot of wiring?

 

Haha, I just ordered them on Sunday, so I can answer those questions in about a week! Looks pretty straight forward tho, almost plug n play but you have to splice and replace the casing

 

oh haha ok. But thats all i figured i would have to wire.

 

Just ordered them on sunday, so I'll let you kno in about a week! The installl looks really easy, and straight forward. Just replace the casings and splice in the new HID kit.

Please correct me if I'm wrong!!!

 

oops damn internet, sorry for the double post.

 

Hey, I had a 96 and did a retrofit. The pictures speak for themselves.

 

Do you still have these? Care to sell?

 

i just ordered some new housing's off ebay that fit the H4 bulb, install was easy its just replacing the housings and then wiring up the HID kit as normal. i bought cheap housings at the time though and the light pattern is awful so i'd suggest buying a little higher end housing if you want a good beam

 

thanks, i wouldn't even have thought of that.

and btw, your truck is awesome. i was looking at your build last night and love your bumper and sliders. nice work

 

Sorry man. When I bought the new Tacoma, I took my retrofit apart and sold some parts. I kept the d2s bulbs, harness, and ballast. I plan to use them to do an FX-R retro on the new Taco.

 

People who throw HID bulbs into halogen housings make me shake my head. They produce an INSANE amount of glare to oncoming drivers. It is a major safety concern when you blind an oncoming driver. Do the bloody research and spend the necessary dollars to do a proper retrofit like ppham444. A projector is the ONLY way to do a proper HID conversion.

 

X2!
