    [QUOTE=jsinger]As far as I know, no it doesn't matter. That or I just got lucky the first try on all four plugs. If you discover otherwise, just switch the terminals.

      Btw, Great DIY!
      the H4 lowbeams are bulbs with 3 pins, but only 2 are used... as long as you are using the correct two (which isnt an issue if youre using the stock JDM plugs that came with the JDM headlights) then no, it doesnt matter if you swap wires around.

                Hmm. Yup. Definitely cheaper and more user-friendly. I never thought to check eBay. I just wanted to get the parts and make my own. I'm still happy I made my own though.

                SUV lights now makes conversion harnesses like the one I made, but I think they are more than the ones in that eBay acution. They didn't have them when I made this DIY.

                So I guess for the people that don't want to make their own and save some money, ebay is your friend.

                    It's a personal choice. U choose whatever you want. But if you want to do as intended; then, connect it to the one that stays constant (when park is on) and doesn't blink. In others words, U connect it to the parking lights. If U do that just make sure Ur bumper lights work (so U don't get a ticket for no turn signal).

                      Does anyone have a picture of the H1 connecter? My jdm headlights didn't come with any bulbs or connections, so I was wondering what it looked like.

                          ok, so I found some terminals that go onto some speakers that fit perfectly onto the H1 bulb, so do I just hook up both the positive and negative into this terminal?

                          I also tried test fitting my new H1 bulbs into the headlights and the clip doesn't hold it in place, is there some type of cover that goes over the bulb before the clip is attached?
