the headlights are meant for h4 halogen, so when an HID bulb is retrofitted, even if the filament falls in the exact same places, the light is is different. light is emitted in different directions between the two

Oh god it's difficult to explain but yeah the HID bulb has a completly different throw to it. The light made archs rather than beams...oh wait instead of trying to explain it I'll let Mr. Internet do the talking.:
How Stuff Works: HID Bulb
How Stuff Works: Halogen Bulb

First problem slick goo (dielectric grease)???

is it actually not conductive!? wow.... i thought all greasy shit like that is conductive.....

oh yah i should probably say something constructive too... try harder, the weatherproofing rubber thingy is stubborn, and after i'm done, my arms looks they belong to emo kids... cut the crap outta them.

word...only one bulb finished in only one headlight and it looked like i fought a cat down there.

I went from underneath. I took off the wheel well lining.

Replacing headlight bulbs
 

Hey guys~ I have trouble in replacing headlight bulbs.
I bought a Nokya H4 Arctic White.
I was able to disconnect the connector, but I was not able to
remove the rubber thing. I looked up on the manual, but it just
explains in very simple way. "Pull out the rubber straight." -_-;;
The hard thing is that I can't look inside of the fender,
because it's so dark inside.

Can someone help me if there is any easy way or how to remove
the rubber easily? Please~~~~~~

just have to pull really hard, i remember there being a tab that sticks out, you can pull on that thing
it's really tight on there

What I did was pull from the top and then the bottom of the rubber, keep repeating that until it comes off.

It is a bust to pull it off even when u cant see what ur doing but keep pulling it, it will pop off.

Did you guys have any oily stuff on the connector?
That oil thing really bothered me in pulling the rubber out.
and it's also hard to put it back on?

Yah I had that oily stuff aswell

dont worry about that

Try twisting the rubber with clean hand by holding the side of it. That's what I did.

I finally installed my new bulbs. Thank you!!

However, I found out that I need a heavy-duty-wire harness
for those high voltage aftermarket bulbs. because it said those
factory wires are melting without this wire.

I have Nokya Arctic White H4 7000K 100/120W.

Is this wire harness necessary? They cost about $30 or $40.

Using the Fit for offroad use? The wattage seems high for a street application IMO.

The harness, probably from my personal experience and doing this in my own cars in past years, but check here for more info as to why:

dear god, how many times do you need to post the same picture?

few minute lol sorry for you

God, those look horrible. Glare to the max. Does Puerto Rico have lighting laws?

OP- Yeah and don't forget to turn the wheels in the opposite directions per side...makes a world of difference.

we all get emo arms..makes us HARDCORE right?

Actually, the camera might be exposing too much light in the lens so there's tons of glare. And the angle of his shot is right at the beam...

but IT STILL GLARES! mine does.. but there's no law on lights..
