TRS Sierra spec install


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello everyone, I know there have been plenty of threads done on this topic. I tried searching through the main thread on HID's but could not view the pictures on there. I recently purchased a Sierra spec hid kit from The Retrofit Source. I understand what connects to what. The problem I am having is finding suitable locations on where to mount everything. I am just looking for any help and tips from others on your installs. Any pictures would be appreciated as well.

Thanks in advance.

under the big plastic fan shroud up top....relays, ground, etc. Plenty of room on passenger side of shroud. Ballast mount on the inside fender, close to the lights.

^+1, under the shroud that is removed to get to the headlights, I used machine screws and mounted the ballasts to either side of the metal frame surrounding the radiator fan near the top. Just make sure you have clearance behind the mounting area so as not to puncture anything. The Canbus relays had 3m tape and can mount nearby the ballasts. Just hand place the headlamps into the sockets to double check for clearance.

Thanks again guys. I was heading in the right direction. I had half of the push in fasteners out, at least until it started to rain on me.

I did this install a few months ago. I'm not 100% happy with the wiring cleanup, but it works. I had to extend the leg to the passenger side.

 

I hung the driver's side through an existing hole in the inner fender. That allowed me to get battery power directly from the input on the fuse panel that side. The passenger side ballast is actually mounted to an existing hole under the radiator overflow jar.

Thanks again everyone. I just finished mounting and installing everything. The lights all work as they should. Now i just have to wait until nightfall to see how they look. I went with mounting the relays on the passenger side and fit everything in.
