Dan I need your help!!!

I was using 25V 3300UF capacitor but instead of soldering it to the switch ,I soldered it to the organge socket below.I tested it and worked good when I put the key on ignition,which DRL normally on. However,when I turn the headlights on ,the capacitor blowed up. my question is Do I need to solder the capacitor to the switch only ???

Mine s 06 outlander and now I have to keep my headlights on all the time otherwise it won't light up.I don't know whats wrong with it.

Hello, I'm new here and I read almost all the treads about HID conversion... I would like to know if there's any way to 'send'' the 9 Volts(signal for DRL) at the High Beams? Just because I don't want the HID running all the time as soon as I release the hand brake...I' have an Outlander and I'm from Canada! Thanks

can you use in line HID capacitors instead of the relay and capacitor?

The first post mentions problems with the Canadian DRL's. Will I face the same issues with my "Non-Canadian" Outlander? I am looking to purchase this kit: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWAX:IT I also want to purchase a kit for the fog lights. Any of you have any idea if the fog light kit will have enough length to reach the battery?

Sorry to beat a dead horse...

So now My Wife really wants the HID Conversion after I did it on my 2009 Mazda CX-7. It was an easy Job because the CX-7 Has Projector Housings and the DRL has a separate halogen light than the actual low beams.

So 2 Questions for my Canadian HID Outlander COnversion...

Should I opt for Projector housings? (Purchase the complete housing from an US model that came OEM HID)

or

Just go with a Kit and use existing housings with a capacitor... I really can't see it looking proper. Almost all OEM HID's I see come in projector housings....am I wrong?

Eh Emil, the wiring is already installed from the battery to the bumper. You need to remove the bumper though to pluged the wiring. I did it, I have an Outlander LS 2008.

I've got an extra set of HIDs, with capacitor to solve DRL problem. They're 5000k, from a reputable company.

Tested and working great, say $65 shipped? PM me.

That's a decent deal, do you still have them?
