Would it be ok to tape velcro on the back of the controller? Im having a hard time finding a place to mount it vertically using a screw, while still being close enough to the factory H4 connector

[@RetrofitSource]

Yes, that is ok to do.

@@RetrofitSource Thanks for your answer!

Are the 8 pin relay connector all the same? I have a 2012 F150 and it failed so im looking to replace only the relay if it’s possible thanks in advance.

In this video is doesn’t show the ballast wire actually plugging into the 35 or 55 ballast. Just wondering if that ballast is necessary or no?

[@RetrofitSource]

Yes, a ballast will still be needed.

Why does it need to be pointing up?? I always mount them horizontally

[@RetrofitSource]

You want them pointing up so moisture and water does not collect in the connector. Horizontally is -probably- fine, We see issues when people leave them hanging upside down more than anything. When it's upside down, water has a better chance of getting in even though it's sealed very well.

TheRetrofitSource Inc ohhhh I see, I’ll make note of that for next time, thanks!

My high and low beams are separate, i want to run a quad projector set-up the high beam will be a bi-xenon retro fit so it can run side by side with my low beams but when I turn my high beams on my low beams turn off will this controller help .......

[@RetrofitSource]

Yes, it sure will!

What light upgrades would you recommend for my 2018 GMC sierra 1500 sle

[@RetrofitSource]

We have got a VERY bright option coming out soon for those trucks, The XB LED Headlights from Morimoto. You'll love them.

So I've been researching a lot on this because after retrofitting my 2012 CRV, I came across this product, my Hi/Lo beam is in one bulb, and now when I have my light switch off the DRL is supposed to run but it doesn't, the bulbs just flickers and if I try to turn the headlight on it doesn't work. Would this control box help with the flickering and my DRL??? please help... Anyone...

[@RetrofitSource]

Yes, installing a relay harness and a capacitor link will fix this issue for you! Morimoto Relay Harness: www.theretrofitsource.com/motocontrol-bi-xenon-h4-9003-B-H60?quantity=1 Capacitor Link: www.theretrofitsource.com/capacitor-link-B-H300

[@Hawj509]

Okay, so I managed to get that harness, I plugged everything up since my Hi/Lo is in one bulb it does kick on, my only problem now is that when i go to the passenger side, there is no harness that goes to my OEM bulb harness. Is there supposed to be something coming from the relay??

[@RetrofitSource]

That is the way that it is supposed to be. The OEM bulb harness is only used to supply the signal to turn the headlights on since it gets power from the battery instead. Because of that, you only need one connection for the signal.

[@Hawj509]

@@RetrofitSource okay, so the other side wouldn't need to be plugged into anything?.... Thanks.

[@RetrofitSource]

Yes, that is correct.

[@kcg795]

I ended up replacing the 9006 ballast connectors and ground wire on my harness. So the quality of the wiring for this harness is questionable. After replacing the ground wires and ballast 9006 plugs, mine's been working great.

That's a bummer, If you have any trouble from here on out feel free to reach out and we'll get you taken care of!
