I have a 2013 Maxima with factory HIDS. I ordered an after market HID KIT because I wanted to put 15K bulbs in. But here is the problem. I don't see how to connect the new ballast to the factory wire harness. I have put HIDs in both my 96 Maxima and 2002 Altima and many of my friends cars. But this problem here has thrown me for a loop. PLEASE ADVISE ! ! ! !

 

Just swap the bulbs

 

Ya since you have the factory hids, you already have ballasts.. So all that is required is to switch the oem bulbs with the new ones..

 

^^what he said, but why would you want to install 15k? You're not going to see anything.

 

... Are you serious?

1. 15,000 Kelvin temperature is heavily blue, if not, verging on purple. At that color, you are not going to see much on the road. Sure, it will be bright looking at it head on, but the light that your eyes see from the cockpit is not going to be much, thus you are becoming a safety hazard. Are you aware of this?

2. Most (not all mind you) aftermarket HID bulbs do not last long, or have poor alignment; for example, the xenon arc may not be properly positioned for optimum lighting, thus even less light on the road. Are you aware of this?

3. Blue light is illegal (in my area at least, because that is the color of light reserved for the police), so you are also risking a ticket sooner or later. Are you aware of this?

4. For the other cars that did not have projectors, did you at least retrofit a projector in there to avoid glare at other drivers?

If you answered "NO" to all questions above...
