My car came with Projectors/Halos on it. I didn't like them very much so I bought some of the OEM lookin ones with the black background, and no amber on the corners...

Anyways I took the projector thing off and Installed my headlights. Well I have a few problems..

Main problem : 1 Light is EXTREMELY Bright(got some 7500k bulbs) and the other light (still a 7500k bulb) barely lights at all... It has SOMETHING to do with my wires but I don't know.

Another problem : The ambers work but the little light to the side of it (don't know what it is called) don't work... They don't turn on or anything.. No idea why.

Also : How do I aim my headlights?

the bright light sounds like the dim light is about to blow, since 7500k bulbs arent made for oem headlights.

The amber problem.... I have no idea what your talking about, post some pics maybe to help.

also, if they are oem style headlights that take a h4 bulb, then you dont need to adjust them. you should only have to adjust projectors.

The ambers work. The other little light doesn't work. Not the amber or the h4 bulb.

They H4 bulb can't be ready to blow because I just installed the headlights/bulbs yesterday.

okay, i guess your talking about the 194 bulb that is a bulb near the turn signal. Check all the connections to make sure that they are hooked up correct.. Still no bulb light, check all fuses, still no light then check the bulbs.

Just cause the lights are new doesnt mean that they cant be bad, you may have touched a bulb lense on accident and caused it to defect. Most 7500k bulbs or HID look alike bulbs use more the 55watts of power from your oem factory hookup, which in turn can cause a malfunction with the light harness.

I'm like 95% sure it is bad wiring.. I might have Honda just completely re-do my wiring... I'm 17 and know VERY LITTLE about that kind of stuff, and my dad who was an electrician is no longer around (F***in Cancer) so I don't know how to fix it.

well if one side is bright and the other side is dim, try taking the bulb that is bright and put it in the other headlight and if it goes dim, then you have a ground issue or wiring issue, but if it stays bright, then the other bulb is bad.

^^ ya, it sorta does sound like a bad ground.... also honda recalled something on their light switch relay's. I am not sure what year your car is, but my 01 had the recall and they replaced it. I turned my headlights on one night and they only worked for like less then a second before going out. took it to honda and they switched out the relay switch and no problems since. I dont think thats your problem but it does sound like a bad light or bad ground.

I think I'm going to take it to Honda and get them to check out my wiring.

before you waist your money, try doing what I suggested, this will eliminate the bulb or wiring as the problem. Just put the bright headlight in the other headlight and see if the same problem happens. Dont just give up and take it to honda, you might have something simple as a bad bulb.
