HID Fog Help please.

SBAQUi4L · 09-09-2009, 05:18 PM

The ballast connected to my new HID fog H11 Apexcone bulbs does not hook up to the stock foglight harness.

this is what the new bulbs look like connected to the ballast.

This is the type of ballast. (35w DDM)

And this is the part that does not fit into the Stock harness to plug in the lights.

Does anyone know what size the stock is? or is there an adapter? or do i just have to splice them together?

I think they are H11. Not H1

H1 is for the actual headlights.

You will need to splice the ends.

i'd call DDM and ask them why it doesn't plug into the stock harness

SBAQUi4L · 09-09-2009, 07:05 PM

Anyone switch out there fogs? with HIDS and have this problem? or did everything fit for you guys/girls?

i have their 3k in my fogs..its size H11 bulb...the stock harness connects into the one on the bulb...and there's plug that connects into the ballast..if you look on the bulb wires..there's two connectors one connects into the stock harness and then the other into the ballast..but one of the connectors is backwards meaning you have to cut a small tab off the connector.

my08Si · 09-09-2009, 07:18 PM

but it looks like you dont' have the right bulb size anyways so yeah...might get teh right bulb size first.

i got the right bulb size. i put it in but the problem was the harness didn't go in right. the prongs were to far apart compared to the stock ones that were closer together.
