Default Where Bug JDM ballast brackets?

Hi

Can anyone please tell me where the OEM ballast bracket bolts on for JDM BUGEYE HID headlights?

Somewhere on inner wings?

Thanks

Can the ballasts overheat? My passenger side light keeps going off after a good few miles? Then will just work again after turning light switch off and on again. Or more likely bumps messing up a connection?

They bolt onto corner of bumper support bar.

Jdm bar is different to euro one

Yep, they're tucked in behind the fogs on a bracket - unlikely they'll overheat but you could have some dodgy wiring

ignore the blob wing, it's a bug being facelifted



A: did you solve your problem?
B: what did you have to do to connect them up in the first place?

Hi, sorry for late reply. I bought some ready made wiring looms from America. Ill mount the ballasts correctly when I fit my prodrive bumper

Cheers
