How to turn brights into lower output DIY

[bradster101]

So for a long time I have been getting asked how I get my brights to look like they do

1. Take the bright out of your car

2. Take the metal clip off of the light

3. Cut the positive and negative wire thats going to the bulb
4. Solder the signal bulb to the corresponding wire (+ or -)

5. Wrap them in wire tape to make them more secure

6. Put bulb back in and enjoy the results


I am currently working on a set of brights that have both the color and the bright. That way you dont need to take bulb out to have brights

Instead of having a "bright" like its suppose to, it kinda just glows. Theres more pictures towards the end of my build thread if youd like to see more

I'd be really interested in doing the mod that you mentioned about running both bulbs. I want my green HID's in my low beam slots, my daytime/high beams in the middle, and some low wattage blues paired with the highs.

Sounds kinda complicated lol... But after this coming week I will be out of school for a little over a month so hopefully I can get on it :rocker:

Wouldn't the tape on the bulb be bad idea after a while of using it?

this is pretty sweet if you have no use for your high beams.
