    Alice: FDR's Build

    ...color that works on them. I don't feel like going into detail at the moment but it's a whole project using SMD LEDs, through-hole LEDs, and LED bulbs to varying degrees with varying success and varying longevity. Anothe project waiting for me to revamp it when I get a spare 2 months or something.

    Backup Camera Help (again)

    I hope people still follow this. I have a 2005 Lincoln LS. I found the REM and there are multiple white wires with a blue stripe. Is there a wiring diagram for the REM I could use to make sure I'm tapping into the correct one for the back up camera?

    Which circuit in pass side fuse panel to use for ambient lighting?

    There is no switched positive power for the headlights. You would need to add a relay. The ground side of the headlight bulbs is switched on or off to turn the headlights on or off.

    Upgrading mark viii Gen 1 headlights

    Prior to replacing my '93 halogen housing with '96 HID housings, I found the best results were with the Sylvania Silver Stars in the low beams and a set of modified HIR bulbs in the high beams both with relays wired in for direct battery voltage.

    Upgrading mark viii Gen 1 headlights

    Luckily my housings aren't that bad and I think they'll last for another while before I refurbish them or buy a new pair. NoLimit do the bulbs fit the original get 1 housings without any modification to the housing? If they do ill snag them and the relay harness in the future and plug them in...

    Upgrading mark viii Gen 1 headlights

    Interesting on how it’s all disappointing based on the housing reflectors. From what I’ve read is that even today’s LEDs aren’t meant to work well with the “older” cars that used halogens in the first place just because of how the whole light emittence is engineered. That being said would it...

    DDM tuning? been there done that and had one bad bulb/ballast after another. Tried the more expensive Morimoto HID bulbs, again not impressed with no light situations. Of course this is Gen II but the quality of what's out there in questionable "upgrade" is not good after many, many hours...

    Upgrading mark viii Gen 1 headlights

    Hi all I know that the headlight brightness of Gen 1 mark 8s are a known issue. With my new for me car I’ve been looking at options on actually being able to see the road at night. My car currently has some garbage yellow halogens. My lenses are ok and the chrome is not looking the best but...

    The great Low beam mod debacle has reached its end?

    I use the same bulb for low beam and high beam. These bulbs are 3 wire plugs as seen in the picture. The connector tab near the table is ground. The tab facing toward the bulb is low beam. the tab facing up is high beam. Use only the low beam tab in both your low beam and high beam ports if you...

    Here is how to get the 9003's into the High beam 9005 sockets. First remove the black 9005 plastic retainer. Clip out the nub pictured and scrape it smooth for no protrusion. A 1" hole saw will open the 9005 port out for the 9003 but in order to do rhis you need to use the saw to cut out a wood...

    After I wrote the above article, I found a lumens monitor I have. With some testing I found the 34w low beam of the 9003 small diameter projector was the top performer with 24-25K Lm @ 6 feet away. The 6 sided non projector I have in the high beam spot now only produces 15K Lm at 23w. You can...

    Wow what a nightmare! Is it possible to get the kit Ford used a long time ago and get housings that fit normal halogen bulbs?

    Have any of you modified your wiring to make your fog lights stay on with high beams?

    That makes sense. I do have HID headlights. They work pretty well. The led fog light and headlight bulbs helped quite a bit also.

    Tail light socket is burnt!

    As an afterthought... Is that bulb brighter than the rest? Some bulbs will fit in sockets that are designed for other types of bulbs. Last thought. When you replaced the original socket, are you sure you wired it properly? Aftermarket sockets typically have red and black wires (with possibly...
