this is a stupid question but was wondering what will happen if you hook halogen bulbs to a hid ballast?

I might do it just for kicks!

My question:
Does anyone know where to get the crimp terminals used for the stock electrical connectors? The fuse box has plenty of places to put all of you accessory relays and fuses. This would really make a clean install. It would look completely stock. If someone finds them I will make up a file for the underhood and ip fuse panel label so that you could print out a new one and put it on the panel cover. That would be sweet!

I did a similar thing, Just go grab another fuse block from the wrecking yard and release the contacts from it and put them in your fuse block.

Check fuses, could be a loose wire or overused receptacle.

My speedo works but the odometer or trip odometer are not working.
Any suggestions?
