Thanks again Dwight, and good luck with the interview!
I hope that you get the chance to upgrade your lights soon. The smaller lights on the side will probably be used as daytime high beam flashers.
HIDs are powered by the low beam circuit and in low beam mode, there is a small cutoff shield that blocks half of the beam. When you turn your high beams on, a solenoid pulls down the cutoff shield, exposing the entire beam.
However, since the HIDs are powered by the low beam circuit, when you try to flash your high beams with the
headlight switch in the off position, only the solenoid is activated and no light is output.
For this reason, many opt to leave the reflector chrome and keep the stock high beams on a relay so that when the headlight switch is off, the stock high beams are used for flashing.
When the switch is on, the relay is activated, switching the high beam circuit back to the solenoid and rendering the halogen high beam inoperable.
I wanted a blacked out reflector, so I may use these as the daytime high beam flashers. They are certainly bright enough.
Here's another small teaser
Im still working out the CCFL DRLs and LED projectors. Waiting on parts...
