  1. I think everyone is waiting for these. I've searched everywhere and cant find any. Im hoping some company out there is planning on making them.
  2. I checked it out for my 2008 edge, but the dealer said I would need a different harness that comes standard with the 2009. So the 2009 is able the upgrade fairly easy.....hope this helps
  3. Could be 2 problems. 1. You do not have a digital ballast. Not having digital will make the buzzing sound in the radio or 2. If you have DRL's, they are flickering because you dont have a cap installed. (which is what I had)
  4. Im not sure which one it is. I didnt order it off the website. PM DirectJG and he can tell you which one I bought
  5. Hey, Mine does work with the auto lights and DRL's. Basically I got a wiring harness from Direct JG and a 1000uf 35v Electrolytic capacitor (most electronics stores will have them). I ended up having to take the harness apart and add more wire to the power wire then wire it directly to the passenger light first. Then put the cap in like the picture and it works perfect. With the harness wired to the drivers side, it didnt work all the time. You can read my posts above to see what it was doing. if you need any other help or explanations, let me know. DirectJG was a great help along with jpeckinp!
  6. Alrighty then.....FINALLY, with the help of the guys here, I got it working. Basically, the wiring harness I had installed powered the driver side ballast first, therefore giving me the passenger side problem. I ended up making 2 relay harness'. That didn't work so I cursed, swore and threw shit all over the garage and pulled everything out. Then about a hour after it occurred to me, make my own harness going to the passenger side then drivers side. That's what I did and now everything works perfectly! I also had to use the cap like I was doing before. Without the cap, the relay itself was flickering like crazy which was flicking the HID's. So, again, thanks to all who helped with everything!
  7. Well I tried making two relays, so that both lights were getting power the same time....Didnt work, again. I took the HID's out for now and put in regular bulbs. When I started it, I noticed the passenger light does go dimmer than the drivers side. Im guessing thats just the way it works. Anyways, if anyone ever comes up with something that would work, let me know.
  8. OK, sort of worked....The only problem I'm having now is at night if I unlock the vehicle, the security lights and headlights come on no problem. BUT the passenger one seems to light up slower, so if i jump right in and start the passenger wont come on because of the draw from the start. If i wait a little bit before I start, the lights come on no problem. Im wondering if I have the cap in the right spot now??? Anyone know exactly which tabs on the relay I should connect the cap to? The relay has 30, 85, 86, 87. To me, it seems the passenger light isn't getting the power that is needed to keep it from flickering during the start and therefore not lighting up. ps. waiting the little bit to start wouldn't be that bad, but the HID's didn't go over that well with the wife.....especially now that they aren't working right!
  9. Awesome, thanks alot for the reply! I'll give it a shot when my new ballast comes in and I'll let you know.
  10. Hey guys, I've done alot of reading on here before I decided to get some HID's. With that, I now have a few problems. I got a kit from Velocitygetters.com here in Canada and a Relay kit from JG of DirectJG (thanks JG!). Here's the problem.... With the HID's and kit hooked up at night I get: 1. One light come on, I then have to turn the lights off, wait, then back on to get both. During Daylight (DRL and auto lights) 1. One light come on, cant get other on, Plus the drivers one that comes flickers the whole time until I turn the lights on, but again only 1 light. I checked some stuff today and found a bad ballast. (company sending me a new one) So, Im thinking, even with a bad ballast, the relay kit and the good light should still not flicker right??? It almost seems like it acts as if there is no relay. Any help would be great, thanks guys!
  11. Sorry for all the questions. Is this an easy install, sort of a plug and play? Thanks again.
  12. Does it turn the DRL's off? What does the canceler do? Thanks for all the info.
  13. How much to buy just the harness and input canceler? Our low beam headlights are also our DRL's here in Canada. Thanks
