Re: 2004 Civic Coupe Amp Ground

Any cap would work, whichever you want to buy that's under $50 is fine.
Doesn't have to be name brand, they all do the same thing.

And for the HID, just use the link i posted earlier, and purchase one
Then send the guy an ebay message telling him that you want H4 bulbs and 6k bulbs

Dis-connect the battery before beginning work and re-connect when done. Your competent enough that this method won't shock you. Also , remember that you need to let caps dissipate. This doesn't mean that you won't start a fire once in a while, pretty much everybody has done it when doing something new and we're only human. lol
-----------------

That battery will fit fine. There's a good 4 inches on 2 sides.

1. Take out the old battery.
2. Remove the tube coming off the bigazz airbox. If you have aftermarket intake, never mind.
3. Remove battery tray and beat down the little lip on the sides. Or take bigazz pliers and bend down the sides.
4. Re-install the battery tray and install your new, bigger battery.
5. Get a real, bigger battery stay at the parts store. If you have to, use a bungie cord but, you need a real stay.

I thought our cars had 9006 bulbs...at least my 2004 does.

Yea about the digital, another reason I went with them was the lower pull of current and the fact that the power output is the same at a 4 or 2 ohm load


hahaha "biggazz"

Re: 2004 Civic Coupe Amp Ground

1. I see where you said you put a 1/0 from the battery to chassis, what did you do about the chassis to tranny that uses the same chassis mounting bolt as the battery?

2. assuming the 1/0 terminal will be larger than the stock "double" terminal, did you sand away any paint/corrosion to clean it up before you attached the larger 1/0 terminal?

Re: 2004 Civic Coupe Amp Ground

I'm not familiar with the 04/05 headlights, if they use seperate beams for highs/lows

Just use the lowbeam as your HID, and keep highs stock

Or highs as HID, and lows as stock, whichever you prefer

Re: 2004 Civic Coupe Amp Ground

If you had them there already why switch to a pillar?

But if you really wanted to, easiest way would probably buy the pillars made for gauges
