HID Lighting & Sequential Tail Light Upgrade Installation

[MacSaab93]

Taillights would look a lot better if they were LED.

[FMuscleZ28]

Damn these musthings look cheap! Is there something not plastic in there?

[FloydRoseDiscovery]

Will it hurt the light if you touch the bulb? I am about order some. and I want to know alot about them first

[bablake14]

Wow! just found this videos,Dream come true! can you do a vid on a push to start button

[tbok75]

Question. I've considered an hid upgrade but read not to. That full hid kits are suited for projector beam housings, that the light thrown is WAY too bright and often illegal. Anyone shed a lil light on the subject?

[213machoballer]

@motorz..where can i find this for german cars like vw jetta

[XMP991]

The sequential tail lights would look beast if they had LEDs instead of regular lights.

[TheGALR]

What k are the headlight HID's??

[BlackGT45th]

Retro sequentials for a retro inspired car.. good choice!

[TheBeermacht]

Tail Lights looks nice. But this quite new Mustang looks like my 21 year old VW Corrado. Technology from the 1990s.

[TUFFGUYS1]

id like to see u ride in the trunk with the trunk open LMAO!!!

[motorztv]

@TUFFGUYS1 Can't do that... but maybe we can find a real trunk monkey somewhere that can!

[jeffw2294]

Holy shit.... how did that man fit inside the trunk? O.O

[motorztv]

@jeffw2294 It wasn't easy, but I fit!

[coolguy10060]

thanks for existing motorz tv now I know a lot of things for installing on cars yet again thanks a lot

[thebeastman33]

8:47 "Echo one initiating contact." Looks like you're trying to signal the aliens from 'Independence Day.'

[TheChristopherboss]

What model of those HID kit is it? 8000k? or what? those are the ones i want.

[rkelley94]

are those the plug n play ones?

[motorztv]

@rkelley94 Yes

[phatkat66]

I tried looking for the same Kit you have on americanmuscle and they don't seem to have it. Can you give a direct link in your description to the product? Or PM me a link please.

[td2123456]

WHERE DID U GET THE HEAD LIGHTS KIT FROM AND THE FOG LIGHTS KIT FROM

[motorztv]

@td2123456 AmericanMuscle

[HotCheeks808]

i just installed mine and all the bulbs turn on like if i were turning on my lights, but when i use my blinkers two of the bulbs dont go off. Did i do it wrong? or do i need new bulbs?

[brucekirk89]

wow courger tail lights hmmm,my 1969 had them LOL

And i wish my job would let me take time off for sickness

[guitarist155]

no aiming???? the Hid bulb is in a different location from the halogen and can change the beam spread and blind on coming drivers.. it's a great mod if you want to look like your car went to a botch shop.. do a factory conversion with full lenses or don't do one at all.. other cars are on the road as well and need to see.. if looking cool is what you want then go ahead, but good halogen lenses will beat them any day and can be properly aimed..

[sethakym]

were those 8k bulbs? hard to tell on camera.

[puppetking232]

Now will it blink in sequence when your breaking or just when you use your turning signals?

[person3213]

@puppetking232 just turning and hazards. it would be dangerous if it did it with your braking.

[xRSECxBLITZ]

I don't have to run a relay thru the front of my truck, i just connect it to both lights without having to disconnect or deleting the other one

[TwiztidJustice]

idk bout yall, but when i put sequentials on my stang i had to replace the signal relay under my dash

[mrbiggoggles314]

Watching many of your videos all at once, all with this mustang, im hearing "undo these clips, these just pop off, unplug these, undo all these clips, and these clips, pop these off too" Does this mustang have screws or bolts at all? LOL

[motorztv]

@mrbiggoggles314 There's a lot of plastic when it comes to the lights, that's for sure!

[acoustic996]

Where can I buy the sequential tail lights??? I want the ones in this video..

[motorztv]

@acoustic996 We got them through AmericanMuscle (dot) com (see it at 9:13 in the video)

[roaddiablo]

@motorztv When i had my 96GT I looked all over an could not find them, even scoured junk yards for old machs an tbirds that had em. But, I no longer own the stang :( as it was stolen an blown up....

[TheAudiophile12]

nice case....

[wonderbreadkw]

do some headlight kits not connect ot the battery?

[vdzrussell]

@wonderbreadkw, Yes. In fact, yesterday I installed 55watt HID kits in both my fogs and my headlights and no direct connection from kit to battery. I think u only need to connect to the battery if the HID bulbs are hi/lo. Meaning they are high beam and low beam. in which this case, for the mustang, the headlight bulbs are hi/lo.

[sideburns2009]

@wonderbreadkw the better aftermarket kits usually will, most aftermarket kits flicker due to an uneven current and the battery acts as a capacitor to prevent that. Some of them just have a capacitor built in.

[Biggieontube]

this video is very informative,but could you do make a video showing the same thing on an older mustang like one from 1998

[FreakSaber]

Fear the GIGSTER LOOKING CASE!!! :P

[DudeWithaPage]

thumbs up if you rotfl when he said "gangster looking case"

[killersushi99]

2 wires!! ITS TOO COMPLICATED!! ARRRG! Curses you more than one wires!!

[iitzyOfaCe]

awesome head/fog lights man. how do you order the H10s? are they usual just fog lights or you have to specifically order them in fog lights?

[Heezy2090]

can you buy brighter bulbs with the sequential kit? iwant my 2006 to have the 2010 like tailights.

[toyoracing89]

Arnt HID headlight conversions illegal in most states?

[SqueakyBoy92]

@toyoracing89 all depend on how bright they are. I have them on my truck and Ive been fine so far.

[achavez78]

Leave it to FORD to engineer a vehicle that makes you nearly take the car apart just to replace a lightbulb. and they wonder why their sales are in the toilet.

The lights look sick though.

[toyoracing89]

@achavez78 Sales arn't in the toilet for Ford. In fact, sales for Ford vehicles has actually risen 26-30% since early March and they're continuing to rise due to customer confidence fading in makes such as GM, Chrysler and Dodge, and now Toyota. Ford is the only business actually MAKING money now, not losing it like everyone else.

[mchero88c]

@toyoracing89 its funny when people like achavez dont know their facts

[MrFreddykins]

@achavez78 Lol, thats why Ford is operating in the black while GM, Chevy, and all them had to become Government Motors? Fords sets everything up like that for a reason. :)

[ChrisGugliuzza]

@achavez78 Whereas almost all other vehicles you have to take to a shop to do almost anything!

[airick12345]

hey that looks really sweet, they lok easy, and just a quick stupid question, when doing this im guessing you need yrou battery off right?

and also do they have a two light squestional light, or on eof those wigwag lights? i have a 2004 impala, and i was wondering if that would look at all good, the wigwag ones look awesoem with impala lights, but i think they might be illegal.. thanks!

[bastec666]

yup illegal upgrade.

you have the reflector lens headlight style, which is used with normal bulbs.

then you have the projector lens headlight style, which is used with H.I.D.

Its not just illegal in my state, its illegal in all 50 states to have a H.I.D. setup in a reflector housing. You CAN upgrade to H.I.D, that is not illegal, but not changing the reflector to projector is illegal.

[sethakym]

@bastec666 actually i know hids are legal in alaska as long as you dont get anything past 12k. and most projectors say not to use hids. hid bulbs are longer than standard halogen bulbs. yet they still work just fine, sometimes you have to order shorter bulbs though.

[walperstyle]

Thumbs down.

Great for people that are not DIY dudes. Where is the vid that shows how it works, and how do make it yourself? Some of have other cars that would love to do this with our own custom LED tail lights.

[immadafunky1]

The process of putting in the sequentials only takes about 30 minutes and it's VERY easy. The only problem(s) I had was my 'Stang has the Shaker 1000 system so it took a bit longer than the 30 minutes it stated. I took some tape and labeled the signal bulbs 1, 2 and 3 and it worked awesome. Good luck to anyone trying this. It looks awesome when it's done.

[texan176]

I love the sequential tails which are so much more simple than the mechanical ones Ford used in the 1960s.

But the HID fog kit that uses pins inserted into the stock connectors and requires electrical tape is pretty bad. Talk about ghetto engineering.

Made in China probably.

Ford should just sell their own clean install HID kits with new headlights made for HID out of the SVO catalogue for older mustangs. It would be a hot selling item.

[desimunda116]

I want to do this to my Honda Civic Si. Is it a fairly similar process?

[alexvrce]

how much do the sequentials cost?

[kevinlew41]

Well, I bought the sequentials!!

[bestamerica]

why this mustang car do NOT have 2 amber yellow lights on the taillight for turning sign

[baberam]

i dont see why you have to have all that wiring for the hid's lol you can buy a plug an play kit WITH plug ins not the wire tips love the bloopers :]

[Benballin2]

Will the HID set up work for the pony package fog lights in the V6?

Thank you in advance.

[matttitaly8]

awsome video

[tumdeax]

For an HID kit you need to get aftermarket projector headlights.

[mrjost55]

@tumdeax yeah I was thinking the same thing, isn't it going to blind other drivers without projectors? Also I'm pretty sure it's illegal to drive with reflective lamps with xenon bulbs.

[0spaceboy]

@tumdeax not

[provehito44]

you dont NEED to get projectors but its suggested

[amayaguillen]

holy shit in order to install a single fuckin bulb you have to remove like the entired back light...fuck mustangs imports are much better every thing is easy to install

[ChrisGugliuzza]

@amayaguillen Yeah, because they're tincans.

[DeeeJayThrash]

Your never suppose to touch any bulb with your bare fingers, period sir.

[leonardomoses]

yes correct, as the oil from your fingers stays on the bulb and will cause a difference in surface temperature on the glass and will cause it to blow.

[superartus]

You shouldn't have done those HID upgrades. Those reflectors are not made for HID bulbs, you're gonna blind incoming traffic and get cars ahead of you pissed off. Not only that, but it DOESN'T look cool especially that color that you got looks to be a high 6000K. The only car that can pull that off is the Acura Intergra because of the projector instead of a reflector. If you are gonna install an HID, you should have done a retrofit, otherwise you are just wasting money.

[audominicano]

nd thats wut u sayy when u jealouss...mann if u cant afford shitt plzz dont b wasting ur time y writing shit ppl dont wanna hearr...

[ABLACKX]

he is actually correct ( i am not taking sides)

but the light is going to be scatterd all over the place which cause other drives to see glare

and BTW retro fitting cost more because you have to buy a projector

[jimmymullet]

Definately agree with you. Without a projector, HID upgrades just look like someone bought a pair of $10 super blue "Xenon" bulbs off ebay.

[texan176]

100% correct.

A few other cars like Lexus SC, 94+ Mistsubishi 3000GT/Dodge Stealth, Nissan 300ZX Z32, and Infinity J30 can get away with it.

[pinoyeh]

Where did he mounted the ballast ?

What a very inconvenient way to change the rear bulbs of this Mustang. Ford should have designed it in such a way that there is an access hole where you don't have to remove the rear tail ligth assembly. American junk......

[1g2002541]

super Kool

[AznGookstaz]

nigguh dis aint no knight rider lol

[FallenRequim]

do you need to buy the kit or can you just buy the single bulb and plug and play

[kuro243]

he skipped how to mount the ballasts...

[salemcripple]

Like the night rider theme in the beginning lol.

[MeanStang08]

very sharp installation - great information - definately looks badd-ass =D
