GT4 Zed Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 As I've recently swapped headlights from single xenon to bi xenon on my UK car I can try to help though I suspect anyone who has done the JDM to UK swap is what you really need! Yes to your first question. But from there on everything doesn't really add up. From what you are saying and the pics it would appear that the pin switch has been performed but your xenon bulb has been disabled and replaced with an H4 halogen bulb. The swap should have converted the non- xenon halogen set up on the base JDM or USDM spec car to a single xenon UK spec car. So I suspect the conversion was not welldone. The single xenon have D2R main buib and H7 high beam bulb. The bi xenon have just a single D2R bulb that flicks between main and high beam with the operation of a shutter.

GT4 Zed Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 It's really pointless to have a xenon set up and downgrade it to a halogen set up which is inferior. I think you should hang in there and find someone who has done this here or go to a proper auto electrician and get this done properly. Someone will come along soon enough.
