You mean Synthesis? I had a beer and talked with him last night as he's at the 30th right now. If I bump into him again, I'll let him know someone is looking to get in touch with him about something.

If it's a harness you're looking for, that may be an issue as he can't do them himself anymore and he has a couple open orders he has to get sent out before he'll be able to get production going again.

The inside edge of the bucket front face is taller than the outside. The tall edge sits toward the center of the car.

The lights have three adjusters/clips each.

Install the clips in the buckets first. Two on bottom, one on top, or vice versa...

The ball of the adjuster faces forward on the lamp. Match the three clips to the three adjuster locations.

Once they have been inserted into the light housings and twisted to lock into place, line them up in the bucket with the clips.
Use a C clamp or ratcheting bar clamp (thanks for this suggestion seajai!) and gently clamp them into place.
It will pop in after some resistance, and you are then ready to do the next adjuster.

Once all three are in, move to the next light.

well, i'm calmer now and followed the link posted above - bless you sniper and zmcdonal. From reading what had been posted, i was expecting to have EVERYTHING I NEEDED and be done in 20 minutes - what a crock ! Do Not start this if you have other things to do !

Anyone doing this project should adjust your expectations to reflect:

This is NOT a quick and easy upgrade ! Why ? because it takes a lot of time and care to mount the friggin lamps to the housings ! Hella gives 3 sets of mounts per lamp, but there are 4 holes. They gave me NO directions except a description of the D.O.T. requirements - thank you Very much.

Even if you use the excellent instructions linked above, you better think things through and proceed slowly and carefully. there is NO margin for error and the fittings are plastic. i don't know WHAT you'd do if you mounted a lamp in the wrong hole or started cracking the fittings or bending the long, thin screws.

Forget about finding H9 connectors in the scrap yards. GM, Chrysler, Ford, Toyota, BMW, Mitsubishi All use a TON of 9005 and 9006. While i was at the yard for something else, i looked for about 2 hours and could not find a single H9 !!! Give up, buy them new, and do the re-wiring.

I'd recommend expecting to spend half a day from start to finish on this adventure, if you wanna do it right the first time. After all, these ARE your headlights, and they move up and down everytime you turn them on and off.

P.S. maybe i can add something helpful here

I found using a c-clamp and a cloth to protect things made it fairly easy to pop the screws into the bucket mounted plastic fittings...

Synth... you should come up with some kind of real documentation to include with the kits. You should also

PaulJK... I dunno... medication maybe? Good find on the list of cars with H9 connectors!

Sorry guys, I haven't been on the forum in a couple of months now. I've sort of withdrawn from car society as a whole ever since the car accident.

I'm still dealing with back, neck and shoulder pain.

I have a couple sets of buckets still sitting at the shop. They've been there for a while now and probably have a healthy coating of dust on them.

I can't do harnesses at all anymore due to the wrists and hands, and now the neck and shoulder pain. My attempts to contract others into building them for me have failed, usually halfway through a harness.

I still have some connectors and relay housings but have not ordered replacements.

I'm willing to put together what I do have for harness parts, or point out some sources for those who are comfortable building their own. I don't know if I have enough connectors for a complete harness.

I can also release the wiring harness schematics for anyone to build their own.

If you'd like buckets, let me know via email from my "Email" link on the top right of this post.
Sorry for the lack of communication lately.

I have two sets left. They are spoken for.

There was an accident at the warehouse, and several other sets were damaged... I'm seeing about fixing them, but it does not look promising.

Danyel, I responded to you via FB messenger.

Fireboss, I don't see a PM from you. Did you email me? (I think I have your email).

The damaged ones were crushed to the point of no chance of straightening them. We've marked them as a complete loss and scrapped them.
The front light panel was bent so badly that if you straightened it, the buckets would not have been dimensionally accurate.

Sorry guys.

Synthesis,

I've been trying to reach you for months regarding my harness order. A reply to the multiple questions I asked by PM would be greatly appreciated.

I hate to have to post this message on your thread. I prefer discussing about issues and solutions by PMs but I am unable to reach you that way.

Thank you.
