WTF!! I went and installed an HID kit on the R today and wanted to just do the low beams. I looked at the manual to see which ones were supposed to be low beams because I forgot to check. The manual is freakin WRONG. The low beams are on the INSIDE and not the OUTSIDE. It's a pain in the ass to redo it all. Bastards......

/rant




1. Low beam bulb
2. High beam bulb
3. Position lamp bulb

I guess my question is, if the owner's manual is right, why are the high beams always on as the running lights?

I did the same thing when i did my HID install.

Since i already cut the holes out on the rubber boots, i used a rubber grommet and glued them in.

At least it isn't the wrong torque spec for the drain plug.

^^ doh!


Glad to hear I'm not the only one..... Finally got over it and redid everything. Just glued the holes back in place that I cut out. Turned out good.
