I got me some hids with relays for my honda foreman and was just wondering if anybody had ever installed these onto a 4 wheeler?I can see alot of its just plugs but what am i supposed to do with the two wires that are connected near the bulb...just a power and ground wire but what do they go to?

Ok, now I see what you mean.

The 2 Wires you are holding in your Hand aren't always needed. And since you are Running a Relay Harness, they def. aren't needed.
 
well i didnt use them at all on the top(3rd light) but what are they used for if you do need them?I didnt run a relay to the top one but i am going to run a relay for the bottom 2.Ok 1 more question.Can I just run 1 relay for the both of these or do i need to run one for each ballast?they are 35w hids and the relay is a 40amp.

Those wires are what Plug into the OEM Wiring to give the Ballast Power, IF you aren't using 9006 / 9005 Bulbs, because the OEM Harness for those Bulb Sizes Plugs right into the Ballast, no need to "Adapt" it.

Yep, 1 Relay Harness for each PAIR Ballasts is how it goes.
 
Ok since im using the relay to both do i just use the 2 bare wires connected to the relay to tap into power on high beam?
 
thanks for the help James.Kinda looks like the 2 bottoms differ a shade but maybe i was just going blind trying to look at it.These things are hella bright and was exactly what i was looking for.

Sometimes they are a lil Off-Color at first, but once they get some Hours on them and the Salts have Time to Burn In, they should equal out in Color.

Def. looks good though, and will Light up the Trails more than Broad Daylight! :)
 
I bet you are rubbing the salt right in the wound for Nick right now. He's probably pressing the ban button as I type.

Man i think about that all the time and how sick i would be if it happened to me,even tho i do have ins on it.I was wondering why my "foreman" album just dissapered.
 
Man, did you guess that or what...):h

Had some assclown not ripped off my Honda, I'd have them in there too. :mad2:
 
I got that "Oh No!" feeling you get when someone makes a joke about someone's mom and doesn't know they are dead.
 
I was watching Truck u the other day and they were talking about LED lights for ATV's. They said the 10 watt led was super bright and after seeing 3 watt leds, I would think it would be, but the price was over 100 bucks. How much are HIDs for ATV's. My dad has a Rhino and the lights stink on it.

Allnall mine ended up costing bout 130$ to do all three.Ive seen kits for the rhino for around 60$ but i dont kno what quality those were.They didnt make a kit for my foreman so i had to fab my housing a lil bit.
