Re: Morimoto Mini help

an H1 HID bulb still has the amphenol connectors. The bulb still has to go through your ballast

edit: and your factory 9006 connector connects straight into the ballast, right?

Re: Morimoto Mini help

the bulbs you're currently running have this type of connection between the bulb and ballast, right?

Re: Morimoto Mini help

That pic was taken from an H1 HID bulb. If you get the morimoto minis, all you'd have to get would be the H1 HID bulb. A D2S bulb has a different connector, but you can always buy an amphenol to D2S connector. That's what I'm running on my TSX retro.
