Hey thanks JamesAWRX. Looked at the site briefly and not sure if the plug and play is for the US STI lights! What is EDM? is that European Domestic Market? and do they wire the lights the same or maybe I should be asking that web site you gave me.

EDM is euro domestic market...don't know if they differ from the USDM HIDs...


I have a question though...if I bought the EDM HIDs, can I just run them without the leveler? I don't really feel the need to have height adjustment on my headlights, but it would be sweet to have the EDMs in a WRX...

I am not sure if you need the light levelers to adjust the light. I am trying to figure this out also. I am working on the lighting electrical diagrams but would rather buy something that someone else has figured out. And I just don't want to make my own switch and by-pass the car's on/off switch. Take's time, but can be done.

this guy on i-club has an 05 wrx and has 04 HIDs. He bought the connector thingy from chaiofangimports so he does not need to splise wires and such, everything is fine on his car and its jdm 04 sti hids.

i got an 04 wrx and 05 jdm HIDs, my problem is the headlights that i bought are crack, so i need to switch everything from the 05 hid headlights to my current 04 headlights.. i opened up the seals from the 05, and i took off everything EXCEPT the leveling controler.. "im not to sure how to take off those two bolts that are connected to the chrome reflector... does anyone know how?? its a really hard spot to reach :P!!

btw, imax its EDM/JDM STi Plug-and-Play Headlamp adapters.

im not to sure if im gonna use my HID level controler... cause i don't got the harness :P

Can you put the 05 lens on the 04 housing? Different shape?

i would think everything is the same... chaiofangimport says edm/jdm so it wont matter i say u order them from there. and yeah 05 houseing and 04 are the same just some difference in color "one is blackish/one is chrome". tell me how your sti installation goes. keep contact, PEACE
