![]() ![]() There is only one type of Bi-Xenon projector sold by these guys, but there were few options with regards to the 55W HID kit (HID bulb & ballast). He answered all my queries properly & seemed like a genuine guy (except one slight issue, more on that later). Naren gave me the contact number of Blaze India, I contacted him over Whatsapp. Next option was to buy from sellers like Blaze India, MotorBasket, added bonus was that they give 1 year warranty as well. The cheapest option was to order from Aliexpress, though this option was out due to the current Covid-19 situation. Next up was from where to order the projector & HID bulbs. Since I am getting 1 year warranty from the seller, I have decided to take the risk. The only issue was the cost (around 7k) & the fact that all these were rebranded Chinese products. The fog lights in the Ecosport are placed on the higher side as well (higher than HLs of many low slung cars), so it seemed Ecosport was a good candidate to fit these projector fogs. The improvement in lighting was huge, these would overpower the stock HLs by a big margin. In recent times there were many who had put Bi-Xenon HID projectors in the fog light slot. Auxiliary lights were never under consideration as I believe they don't look good on modern cars like the Ecopsort. I generally don't like to drive on our unpredictable highways after dusk, but sometimes I am left with no choice. The safe option was to go with premium bulbs in stock 60/55W, but from what I know the improvement in lighting isn't that noticeable (especially in Ecosport where the reflector design is bad). The need for better lighting was always on my mind, though this time I wasn't willing to experiment with the headlights. I guess this was due to the heat generated by the 100/90W bulbs, which was too much for the plastic HL of Ecosport.įinally I removed the 100/90W bulbs, the relay harness & fitted back the stock lights. Though as the car neared the 50k km mark, I started noticing that the inside of the reflector was starting to fade. ![]() At around the 25k km mark I fitted 100/90W bulb (with a relay harness), improvement in lighting was good enough for me & I was a happy man. Every time I hit the highway at night, I used to curse the useless HLs. The pre facelift Ecosport's headlights are really weak, almost like candles. Without you guys, I couldn't have completed this project. The passenger side is more difficult to get to so I turned my wheels to the right and used the owners manual guide, removing about 5 clips gave me enough freedom to slide my hand in behind the inner fender lining to get the passenger fog light bulb (sorry no pictures yet).Special thanks to Bhpian Ashubhrah, Audioholic, Dr. Then you will be able to reach down to unplug the harness from the bulb. Once the two clips are pushed in one at a time and lifted up the fuse box can be moved to the side. The driver side is the best one to do first from under the hood.ġ) remove small fuse box that is held in place by two clips They are H11 bulbs German made osram, very good quality stock. This is a rough idea on how to change your fog light bulbs, I'll edit this and make it better when I get the chance.ĭon't buy cheap yellow hid kits, if your going cheap get white equivalent bulbs. ![]()
