Default H3C HIDs???

How the hell can I upgrade my h3c wire harness halogens to, say, a yellowish HID????????? What kinda modification will it take?

I searched h3c on the site, found NOTHING.

I have a 93 LS, UCF11....anybody know how? PureDrifter?

Will a regular h3 work with SLIGHT mod?

Thanks in advance!

running HID fogs is not a issue and requires no harness mods, if you put a relay in you will be fine, and if you want yellowish light you might want a 3000k or 4000k bulb

Thanks Lexkost! I already had done that mod with the h3 bulbs, but I was just curious if it's THAT easy to install h3 HIDs as well..

Thanks all

So...PureDrifter, is it possible to make the fog lights turn on by justing flipping the fog on, rather than turning my low-beam on AND the fog on switch? Because that's what I have to do now....and the purpose for me getting fogs is to use them independently, it will look like *** with the 3000k fogs AND my 6000k HIDs on together...

is this possible to rig them independently?

Yes it is. I've done it on my 98, after someone did it on thier 95. Search for Fog light mod, and you should come up with the thread i posted. You will have to locate your own relay as it may be in a different location then mine. No to mention the wire too (it was a bit different from the info posted about the 95 LS), so im pretty sure it might be a different one on yours.

Found the link for you:
