Jlevi SW | Piccolo ULTRA COMPACT HID System: $175, No Wait!

PimpDawg · 08-20-2007, 04:45 PM

Nice! Drop in price!

Do you have some instructions? I want to see how hard it is before purchasing. Thanks

SV Concepts III · 08-20-2007, 06:19 PM

The install is rather straight forward. The stock wiring plugs right into the resistor harness, resistor harness right into the ballast and igniter and then right into the HID bulb. All the plugs clip right together, there is no need to solder or tap any wires. It will take you about 10-15 minutes per side for the install.

nyc3r · 08-20-2007, 11:27 PM

where do you mount the resistor and ballast? any bulb errors? Installation picture / diy would be nice.

PimpDawg · 08-21-2007, 12:49 AM

As easy as you're making it sound Nick, some installation pics and a diy for the fog lights would be nice.

calvino · 08-21-2007, 01:16 AM

Unfortunately we dont share the installation instructions publicly. It's only included in the purchase (or if you've bought from us before). However, we're more than willing to help if you're having trouble installing the kit even if you didnt buy it from us.

Our kits plug right into your stock wiring. Simply unhook and remove the old bulb from its housing. Install the new bulb as the old bulb went out and plug the wires from the new HID bulb into the corresponding wires on the igniter. The igniter should be installed on the ballast but if not the plug will slide right into place. Plug the stock wiring into the ballast and test the kit! If the kit does not work the first time, make sure you have not reversed the polarity of the stock wiring and the ballast plug. Try flipping this plug to ensure that it is installed in the correct direction.
