Tested the electrical part of the project today. Worked as planned
The wires/fuses on my upgraded harness are rated for 20 amps for low beam, and 20 amps for high beam. It's really convenient the way this is set up. It took me less than 10 minutes to plug in the ballast harness to the upgraded harness from before, plug in the bulbs, take a picture, and reconnect the stock halogens/take HID bulbs out.
Now all I need are the projector headlights
I really like the start up sound of these things too. m-o-r-e power!
Tonight I worked on getting the HID's to stay on with the high beams, and getting the high beam indicator on the dash to light up properly. I finally succeeded after some trial and error. I needed an extra relay to add resistance on the high beam wire. Anyways, I'm writing up a small diagram for my own reference, and I'll post that as well
Here's a diagram I wrote up, I'll double check it tomorrow (it's almost midnight, I'm tired). It's quite complicated because I have other driving lights, let me know if there are any questions. With this setup the high beam indicator will light, and the HID's will stay on while the high beams are on. I added a switch in the engine bay so I could be able to switch between "halogen" and "HID" modes (Halogen, the low beams turn off when the highs are turned on; HID, the low beams stay on when the high beams are turned on.) This could come in useful if my truck won't pass inspection with the HID's. Just plop in my old headlights and bulbs, flip the switch, and get it re-inspected.
