The D2S bulbs I see are HID; would I have to rewire for those?

I'd love to just put new bulbs in, but I fear the wiring is jacked up / wrong. Most of the hi/lo combo bulbs I see have three wires going to them; I only have two. And, the wire which goes to the parking lights in the front is tapped in to one of these. (twist and tape).

What should the voltage output be for the two wires (per light) I have, if they are correct? The lights so dim, I'll be happily surprised if the voltage is even close. There is almost no difference between low and high beams, and very little output in general.

If only two wires is OK, and if the voltage is close, I'll make some bulbs work.

Very much appreciated.

You would have to rewire for HID's. I've never used LED bulbs before, only stock/halogen which are plug and play or HID's.


If you want to just plug and play, you'd have to go back to the "stock" bulb that came with the headlights which Spec-D lists as H1. But like you mentioned, the wiring might have been jacked up so it might not be that simple.


For HID wiring, it goes Bulb -> connect to Ballast -> Ballast connect back into headlight/car wiring.



The high beam is: headlight wiring -> car wiring for high beam. (this is because the projector flips a tab up to expose all of the light output).


You'd have to take them off to look to see how the wiring is done. But if it's too much for you I'd purchase a set of stock and sell these since they still have value.
