Hello! I need help installing my head lamps.
In the pictures i provided below, Would you know what to do with the parts I labelled:
#1: Lamp
#2: Lamp
#3: It's a Plug that goes to the standard 2000RS bulb wiring socket, right?
#4: Where does this wire go? Does it go to the battery? Is it positive or negative? (the other lamps for the other side of the car has the same set of wires and this one also has the same red color) Or is this just a ground wire that I can stick to anywhere on the car body?
A & B: These wires were not shown in the diagram behind the lamp's cardboard box. Would you know what to do with these?
Thanks so much. (if you can read japanese, can you translate these too? hehe)

#4 ring connector should be wired up to the positive terminal of the battery.
#3 looks like it plugs into the headlight connector plug.
And wires A and B look like they provide power for the angel eyes or city lights.
I don't read Japanese but I beleive the section under the yellow heading is the caution section. Some precautions should include:
1) disconnect battery before doing any electrical work
2) make sure headlight switches are off
3) use only recommended wattage bulbs (H7 55W)
4) replace fuse only with one of equal rating

thanks so much! very helpful!
now, anyone what shall we do with the wires in picture labelled A, B ?
ugh! the wires are connected somewhere, but i don't see them connected to the bulb socket when i removed the rubber cover. I don't want to pull the lamps out like i did on my other twin beam ( i cracked one of the contact points for the aim adjustment).

the wires labelled A B look like daytime running lights or some sort of city light feature. look through the front of the glass lens and see if you notice a ring or extra bulb located inthe glass housing. if so, just hook up to your DRL. if you do not have some, tie them into your corner lights.

:D
woohoooOoOoO!
there was a ring around the lens. I do not have day light running lights, so i will hook those wires to the corner lamps like you suggested.
thanks so much!

Wow, those look very similar to the knockoff Morrettes with angel eyes that a few vendors are selling too. Are your lights real CF? or fake?

Here's what i can say about those. Morettes are the real deal. Their lamps ar bigger , and they look meaner.
I got 2 sets of these twin beams, but I do not have the Morette.
My first set had no brand at all. No wirings were included, and no manuals either. It's totally a low quality knock off for $240 with shipping.
The one I posted here is a bit nicer. around $269 with shipping. it had the wiring harness. original corazon from japan. manual on the box, but japanese.
The quality is good, but on the low side. It looked as if it was a reject up close. The carbon fiber material underneath the clear coating, I am not sure. It could be just some black cloth with the typical CF pattern with clear hard plastic coating on it.
I really would not recommend both these lamps. I suggest buying the Morette even if they cost around $500.;)
