The highbeam from what I can tell have lost a little distance but not that much.Could this be due to the inner lights going off when you hit highbeam? If the projector runs a H7 as opposed to H4 in the original light the projector would turn off when you hit highbeam as H7's arent a Hi/Low globe. Any way around this?

I would buy the original mk2 projector headlights but I really think they should have come out with DRL's on them which forced me to buy the aftermarket ones. They cost me $450 picked up. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/78437-fg-and-fg-mk2/page/3/#findComment-1181750 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked this today off the headlight plug.FG2 uses just a single element H7 globe for the inner (halogen or HID wont matter) so if its powered from the FG1 low beam circuit it will cut out when changed to high beam.So need to figure out a way of getting the power to the low beam when on high beam if that makes any sense.Will speak to the elec techs at work.Anyone got a headlight wiring diagram for FG or FG2?
