TRS Tips: How To Retrofit Headlights with Morimoto Mini H1 Bixenon Projectors

[@TheAdamie]

This is the only video I found that actually showed you what to do with all the random hardware and what went into H1 and H7. Thanks so much for making an idiot-proof video. I just added 2 projectors to my 2005 R1's High beams and they look amazing. It had them in the low beams OEM but now I have 4 :D

[@helmetheadog]

Wow, those are some incredibly easy headlight housings to retrofit. No cutting required. My headlights took about 40 hours to complete, these look like they could be done in less than 10.

[@jake90770]

helmetheadog what kind of car did you retrofit I want to do my car but looks like I'm going to have a hard time trying to fit the shrouds

[@ZoxtorPK]

Nothing can beat retrofitting. Even the BMW laser lights, or the Audi.

[@RetrofitSource]

Facts!

[@meifyoucan]

AAAAAAAAAYYYYYEEEEEE I was expecting cutting and gluing?!

[@johnargue2977]

I've installed hids bulbs before. Want to know how to wire them, look for how to put in hid bulbs. Basically. New bulbs connect to a ballast, a little box, and that connects to factory headlight connector. No wire cutting needed. Very simple. Then mount then ballast securely to car. With zip ties or sometimes they come with a bracket. Btw, nice video on the projector lights.

[@rickjames9477]

the solenoid and that shield movement is exactly why I had no choice but to just rock LED’s - We have far to much temperature variation as well as salt used on our roads to trust something like that. Also my car u have to take the bloody bumper cover, under car shield as well as a bunch of other plastic stuff just to get to the headlights if so had to do that in -30c, ohh shoot my solenoid froze and is jammed likely into high beam lol I went with morimotos two strokes for low beams and some phillips leds for high beam and I am very happy, my old lenses were so cloudy and terrible that just the new assemblies made a world of difference plus the added light and color difference, it’s made such annhuge difference. However I actually think doing turn signals and brake lights is even more important first though. Halogens headlight are decent but the bulbs at least the older bulbs used for signals/brake lights markers etc really are pretty terrible - and during a sunny day or at dusk - i notice people SEE what i am doing far easier then before. I know I hate some vehicles because you can’t see their front signals or some dummy will put a white bulb where and amber was supposed to go.

[@RetrofitSource]

That is very true, those marker bulbs and brake lights are not nearly as bright as they should be! I am glad that your headlights are working well for you, if you would like to look into some of the marker bulbs that we have for your vehicle, let us know and we will be happy to help! Thanks for the support!🙏

[@timothygraves2009]

you have any video of the electric wiring to the car?

[@evoone3039]

would be nice to see how they wired up the lights? what kind of wire harness to use?

[@muzicmuzic9]

They sell many kinds of wiring harnesses. The best way is to just browse what they have. They have so many options for different installs that it's way too many to list. An example though, I did a retrofit on a motorcycle, and I bought a motorcycle dual h7 output harness to power the ballasts for the HID's. So many options it's almost overwhelming.

[@Zulfburht]

For all your oncoming traffic blinding needs.

[@RetrofitSource]

These are projectors, no blinding traffic with these! (:

[@SanDiegoRider]

I just did this myself and used 250deg for 7 minutes. Seemed about perfect FYI

[@RetrofitSource]

That's great to hear. I hope the rest of your project is going well!

[@rfcdgaf]

4:00 make sure you grease all that stuff or antiseize. If you ever have to take them out for whatever reason, if projectors needs to be replaced or you're swapping it to a different housing/car you are screwed.

[@cherryblossomscarletokami9841]

seeing how much you turn that damn screw driver, get a husky ratcheting one, theyre home depot lifetime warranty, feel nice, and work nice, they also have a long reach and are only $10, trust me its so nice to have

[@adisome.]

I have Ford Focus headlights. At what degrees Celsius should I keep them for 7 minutes? Do you put the headlights in the oven after the oven has reached the desired temperature and then count 7 minutes?

[@RetrofitSource]

Every headlight will be different, but the general rule is around 250 degrees Fahrenheit for 7-10 minutes. Re-insert for 5-minute intervals until you can remove the lenses.

[@fishingthemetro]

Has anyone retrofitted their headlights to be bi xenon or dual beam projectors? I’m planning on putting a projector where my reflector is and replacing the oem one with a high/low projector. My question is how do you get the high beams to come on when you turn your regular lights on? And how do you get the low beams to have a high/low function.

[@BogusQuacky]

late reply, but just use both as high/low beams! You could have 4 projectors, just would need 4 ballasts and igniters.

[@kylecagalingan6018]

Hoping you guys will do another retrofit of e46 on mini H1 8.0. To update knowledge from 7 yrs ago.

i have a few questions about these bulbs guys. what ligt source can you use (xenon, led, halogen)? how do you hookup the wiring of the lens? i figure this car doesn't Come stock with these wiring and only has the plug for the bulb.

[@BalkanJeSrbija]

Very nice Sir.

[@TheCreationman]

Seems simple enough. I plan on purchasing some Mini H1 7.0's from you guys for a complete retrofit on my headlights. My standard low beam size is HB3 and my High beams are 9005. When I install the H1 projectors, does that change over the bulb size to H1 as well? I hope so because I already have H1 bulbs from you lol

[@KeithRobertson1]

+The Creationman Yes, it does

[@mattkossoff5841]

+Keith Robertson yes, always need the bulb size to match your new projectors size, so H1 for the new 7.0s

[@MrJoeysmacks]

Hey guys great installation video. I have a question can I still use the bi-xenon bulb with the little servo that pushes it out a little?

[@RetrofitSource]

If you have a bi-xenon bulb that fits your application, then that would work! I am sorry to say that you will have to source that yourself, as the only bulbs that we have that will move in and out are the 9007 and the H13 bulbs.

[@and_rew9768]

Well done 👏💪👍👋

[@RetrofitSource]

Thanks ✌

[@thor2716]

TRS how do I get the wires from projector and switchbacks through headlight?

[@Ultrarmx]

U guys still do custom retrofit headlights on specific cars? Example I need a custom job on 2002-2003 Civic Si HB.

[@RetrofitSource]

Unfortunately no but we still sell the products. We just don't do them in house anymore.

[@samsonn25]

Did you adjust beam pattern up down on the projector itself or through the headlight housing assembly back?

[@RetrofitSource]

the projector itself.

[@lukereynolds]

whats the process like going from h4 to that wiring wise is there still hi lo function etc

[@koushick007]

I watched this video over 10 times only because I want to buy the mini projector, but I am nervous about the wiring. If my OEM headlight plug is for H4 bulb, how would I use a H1 bulb? H4 plugs has 3 spokes while H1 has only 2 I believe.

[@TeejtheDeej]

+koushick barua you have a low beam circuit and a high beam circuit... On mine this is what I did, I took the low beam wires to the headlight and the solenoid for the cut off through a relay such that the relay on its resting position has the solenoid energized and blocking the light but when I turn the high beam on it switches the relay on which drops current to the cutoff solenoid hence allowing the other half of the beam through as "high beam" I hope that helps. 5 pin relay by the way.

[@Super6-Four]

The H4 adapter plate you are using is not the one that came with my kit. mine doesnt have a dip but is more conical. Are the new ones no longer like this? Would look like it would lock down better

[@xclusivedanny1988]

So if I buy headlights with h1 low and high beam halogen projectors, do I just open the headlight, unbolt the h1 halogens and then bolt the h1 hids in?

[@stephenkoko639]

Hi...what do you think if we install a projector ito the headlamp with the PATERN glass cover?

[@TheMasterizzatore]

U can't

[@fernandorivera2395]

What is difference between regular Xenon headlight versus Bi Xenon??

[@RetrofitSource]

Xenon is just the use of HID, meanwhile, bi-xenon refers to HIDs in projectors that offer both low and high-beam coverage.

[@etakishinji7266]

You did not mentioned the wiring installation and the alignment of the beam

[@RetrofitSource]

This video was just to show the actual act of installing the projector into the housing. Sorry that it did not have all the information you were looking for! Thanks for commenting!

[@lesliechao9507]

From your vid it didn't appear you had to cut the original reflector bowl or the back of the housing, so does this mean the projector is fully adjustable (north/south, east/west) just as the stock halogen reflector bowl was?

[@RetrofitSource]

Yes that is correct! the projector can be adjusted with the factory aiming adjuster knobs after the retrofit

[@lesliechao9507]

TheRetrofitSource Inc perfect thanks. Also, the h1 mini is really this simple to install? It almost seems to good to be true!

[@RetrofitSource]

That it is! But its not too good to be true, thats what makes them our #1 selling projector today! the 7.0 version is better than the 6.0 that's in this video too, in every way! www.theretrofitsource.com/complete-retrofit-kits/universal-kits/bixenon-morimoto-mini-h1-stage-3.html (thats the whole kit, we also sell just the projectors alone)

[@lesliechao9507]

TheRetrofitSource Inc I'm looking at getting the mx5 switchback shrouds and will I need to be getting a relay or do I just wire them separately to my blinkers and drls?

[@RetrofitSource]

Nope! no relay necessary for those X5-R shrouds on their own, the switchback function is already integrated into their wiring so you just hook it up to the DRL and blinker like you said

[@Mustangkid29]

So my car has a stock bulb size. As long as i make sure the adapter plate is set to 12 o clock, i dont have to worry about the rotation Alignment being off?

[@theretrofitsourceinc6346]

+Mustangkid29 If its an H7 or H4 (which adapters are included for) then yes, thats right

[@jaylee2835]

What happens if I don't have a big garage where I can park he car 20 feet?

[@mvb316]

What temp do you bake the light?

[@brantthompson199]

So the two wires coming off the ballast must be used in all cases correct? I have been told the opposite for my vehicle and that doesn’t seem right

[@RetrofitSource]

That is correct!

[@dair805]

Hi, Please send a link of wiring installation for this specific bulb!!! My car has 9003 bulb which I have no idea how the wiring goes from 9003 (factory) to H1 with high and low together.. Wiring instructions please!!!

[@RetrofitSource]

Hey there! You can find that here: www.theretrofitsource.com/media/custom/upload/File-1473952402.pdf

[@bxrpwr]

So my problem is my 03 legacy gt has two bulbs. one for high and one for low. I would like to think this would work? The low beam is a H1 and the High beam is a 9005

[@RetrofitSource]

Absolutely, so when you install this on just the low beam side you will use all the connections from that to power everything up. Then you have a splitter that comes off your OEM high beam to power the solenoid for the projector! Quad high beams!

[@bxrpwr]

@@RetrofitSource Big thanks!!!

[@SeanB9]

I just purchased mini h1 8.0 and installed them the the cutoff shield on the top and the cutoff seems proper but when I look at the installation guide it shows to put it on the bottom. How is it possible that the cutoff is right but it is apparently upside down?

[@RetrofitSource]

That is very odd, that should not be happening at all. I will have you shoot us an email with images of your beam pattern, and then we will go from there! [e-mail]

[@triniwarrior16]

whats the difference between xenon and hid?

[@m3redgt]

ARCH. M Nothing. Just different names for the same thing. To be exact.. xenon is the gas which is inside the bulbs. HID means High Intensity Discharge

[@triniwarrior16]

Mathias Pertl wow, thanks i didn't know. currently i have hids

[@canagniou]

I want to take my original H7 signal from the headlight and drive it to projector's coil. Will the H7 beam be effective for both high/low?

[@anghelalexandru8207]

Hi, did you figure it out? i have h7 as well, and i want to do it on my car as well, but i don't know what to do with the high beam cable because the projectors come with h1 bulbs adaptors.

[@vincentsarvida148]

Now if I was to to that on a h11 would there be an adapter for it?

[@theretrofitsourceinc6346]

+vincent sarvida No adapter, but little modding needed really. We have another video showing the best way to retro an H11 system

[@maxgermain]

I have a C5 Corvette with ACA headlamps. I want to upgrade the projectors. Can you recommend one for my application?

[@RetrofitSource]

That one will be a little hard, as that is a very low profile headlight housing. If you were going to fit anything, you would want to go with the Mini H1 8.0, as that will be the smallest of the full size projectors that we carry. I have linked that for you here: www.theretrofitsource.com/bi-xenon-mini-h1-7-0-projectors-P-M-H1?quantity=1 Otherwise, you could go with the Matchbox 2.0, and that would be a smaller option, but may not be any better than what comes in the headlight from the manufacturer. I have linked that for you here: www.theretrofitsource.com/bi-xenon-matchbox-2-P-M-MATCHBOX?quantity=1

[@chrisz.9974]

So the solenoid is for high beams? What if my vehicle has a high beam bulb?

[@RetrofitSource]

If your vehicle has a high beam bulb, you can either get a high beam splitter so that you can also run that low beam projectors high beam solenoid, or you can just leave that hanging and not plugged in! Let us know if you have any other questions, we are here to help!

[@hcracer1985]

All the money u have to spend on them and u have to jb weld the shroud to it. I just bought a $25 kit on eBay and they get screwed on and are of good quality.

[@MrCougar214]

I bought a set of aftermarket head light housings for my charger. They have H1 sockets for both high and low beam. The high beam are standard reflectors but the low beam are projectors with a cut-off shield inside(I'm assuming because of the sharp cut-off line). The cut-off line on the passenger head light is slightly slanted and doesn't line up perfectly with the drivers side(which is nice and even straight across). Is there a way I can fix this so the passenger side head light is even with the drivers side? I am NOT talking about adjusting them up or down! I know how to do that and have already done it. I'm talking about how to "twist" the actual projector in the passenger side head light to get it lined up properly.

That sounds like a defective headlight. It's highly doubtful that it can be fixed. The only way to remedy this would be to get a new headlight housing.

Why did you skip the lens removal? Why did you skip the reflector bowl removal? Why didn't you elaborate on the lamp shroud? Does it come with the lamp? Does it come with a kit? Where did it come from? Instructional videos can be very off putting to customers when they seem more like advertising than like they're trying to be helpful.

[@RetrofitSource]

Hey there, thanks for commenting! This is a pretty old video, so you will have to forgive us on the quality of it as we were not as advanced in the industry as we are now! With the lens removal, we did not skip that process, and you can view that from roughly 40 seconds to 1 minute 10 seconds. As for the reflector bowl removal, that is also shown, just not in too much detail. That is right after the lens removal, and it involved removing the 3 screws that were in that headlight holding the reflector bowl to the housing. The kits can all easily be found on the website, and if you took the time to check out the links on this video to check out the complete retrofit system, you would have seen that all the parts are included in the kit including the shroud. The real reason that we do not show everything that well in this video, is that these can be used in almost every headlight housing, and of course different housings are going to have different setups. That is why this kit is a "Custom" kit that you will have to install! If you have any questions, all you need to do is shoot us an email and we will be happy to help! [e-mail]

Thank you. I might advise you to check out the links in the video description as well, unless it's just me getting a "page not found" screen.

Thank you for the update, that is due to the fact that we are unable to offer that kit for street legal use at this point, so those links are now not used for anything. Sorry about that!

Was just at the site and nothing for the 2012-2015 B7 Passat! Terrible headlights and now that its in the hands of second owners from the factory buy back it would be super popular to upgrade. I'm sure it didn't sell in the beginning because the demographic of the original buyers and the fact you have to rape your brand new car headlights. Now is the time to reintroduce this kit for us.

We will keep an eye out for any good options for those cars, Thank you for watching.
