Wiring for Going from H11 to H1 Kit

[preston019]

Hey guys,

New to this forum and I have a question about doing a conversion.

I have a 2012 Silverado and I plan on putting in new headlight assemblies. The stock headlights take an H11 bulb and the new assemblies take an H1 bulb.

My question is for what bulb type do I need to buy a HID conversion kit for (H1 or H11)?

I plan on getting a Morimoto kit from TRS along with a relay harness and a CANbus; what type of connectors do these need to be as well?

Any input would be appreciated as this is my first time doing a HID conversion.

Thanks!

Don't want to crush your dreams, but what assemblies are you planning on getting? Brand name please.

They're Spyders.

I know they have crappy projectors in them and I'm eventually going to put in better projectors too. But I like the way these look better than the stock. Probably going to get a lot of backlash for this... lol

In the end it's what you like that matters. But at least you are aware of their output and quality.

What you need is a H11 relay harness with AMP ballasts.

So an H11 relay harness, AMP ballasts, and H1 bulbs?

What about a CANbus? I just don't want my warning light going off.

[HK45]

Yup all of that is correct. If your car has canbus then you would need it.

[preston019]

Okay awesome!

Would the CANbus be H11 as well and goes in between the OEM harness and the relay harness?

[HK45]

TBO I do not know how they are installed. I have yet to do a retro that had Canbus. Check the DIY guides on TRS.

Okay, I will definitely do that.

Thanks for all of your help!
