R32 Headlight question
I finally got around to doing my R32 headlight conversion. First thing i noticed was that the low beams were different colors. I thought it was a bad ground or something, but it turns out that the guy who sold them to me got them off of 2 different year skylines. my friend said that the passenger side is from the earlier r32's, while the driver's side is off of the later r32's. on the driver's side there is a ring around the projector, but on the passenger side there is no ring...that's the easiest way to tell them apart. now the fun part; now i have 2 different bulbs. wiring up the headlight wasn't too hard cause both sides had that harness that connects the lows and highs to a H4 type plug. but while the driver's side is a H3C bulb, I have no idea what the passsenger side it. It has a base similar to the H3C, but there is a wire clip on the bulb itself, not the headlamp housing. and it has a H4 three prong type fitting on the bottom of the bulb. anyone with any idea what the earlier R32's use would be great help. if not, I guess i will buy an H3 HID kit and somehow weld it in the passenger side to keep it in there.
BTW, there are pictures on my website. i still gotta do more work, but at least they're in my car instead of my room.
