ra28/23 easy and cheap H4/H1 headlight conversion.

Hi,

Nice, but you can also use hi-lo beams in all light fittings, so you can run all four headlights together in lo beam. Gives a lot of light and is legal.

Thanks for the tip river!

That harness looks like it can only do 2xH4 + 2xH1. I have sent him a message on ebay to ask him if he can make a 4xH4 one, I'll post his response back here.

Cheers,

Running 4x hi-beam would be obnoxiously annoying for any oncoming traffic, a must for midnight dirty rallying though.

The most fashionable (and friendly) solution perhaps is to dual H4/H1 your inners and just H4 your outers in your quad setup? Would look the goods still having quad low beam.

there is another ebay item further down that says it is for 4 xH4s, but yeh, ask them the Qeustion also. they will be available.

i too am of the opinion, that 4x H4 would be too much. but still would look cool.

[mynameisrodney]

ok I'll look closer for the 4xH4 one. Is this one about right in terms of length? No need to shorten/extend any of the segments?

i didnt touch the loom at all.
mine was used on ra28.
put the relays near yr battery, dummy connect, then feed the rest around the bottom or the radiator.
i connected the earthes to the radiator top mount points..thats all done.

The Celicas were quad hi beam from factory. Outers were hi/lo and inners were high only.

This.
Plus running any high beam in the face of oncoming traffic is obnoxious and annoying.
A few years ago I looked at a 28 with Quad lows. Looked cool.

Ok the guy got back to me and said he doesn't / wont make a 4xH4 version. Omegaman, do you have a link to the one you saw as I can't seem to find one. Would buying his 2xH4 + 2xH1 harness and swapping the H1 plugs to H4 ones be an option, or will this overload the fuse / relays?

[Omegaman]

hi,
i cant seem to find any on ebay either ATM.
I'm sure if you re wire the H1's to the H4 relay, but up the amps, you should be able to use them as H4 hi/lo.
but i know little about wiring, i'm more of a trial and error sort of a guy..lol

[masterofsinanju]

I'm not sure if this is the right place to add a question. Any problems, let me know and I'll edit/start a new thread.

If you have a h4 headlight conversion with halogen globes, is changing to LED just a matter of banging in LED globes (and suitable wiring). Or do you need to change the lenses again?

[o_man_ra23]

Should just fit if they are H4 fitment LEDs.

[Omegaman]

yep, from what i heard when looking at doing the conversion, Leds are fine.
its the other H4 bi-xenon's that require its own conversion & ballasts.

Hi All!!

Im looking at upgrading my lights, theyre so dull and i do quite a bit of night time driving. I cant find anywhere the kit to have the original set up (outer Hi/Lo and inner Hi). I found a conversion kit on toyheadauto but these are just for the H4 bulbs. I have absolutely no idea what lights are what so any help would be much appreciated!

Cheers

[Omegaman]

the original ones i bought off ebay, dont seem to be around.
but here is the original ebay listing. Maybe email them direct for the h4/H1 celica coversion kit.
they may also have the H4/H4 type also
