For my 2000 SS , I had tried some Xenon Halogen Bulbs that were working for about 5 years but ....

one stopped working and I just hit the top of the hood and it always seemed to come back on , I finally went to change the low beam bulb to find out that electrical connector looks fried . Is there a way to get a connector end part to replace the fried one ? I'm not sure if would be able to do it though . I'm not to good with electrical stuff .

The local parts store should be able to get the connector for you. Easy 2 wire hook up so installation is easy. Good luck

Thank you Jeff . How about this part ? It's ceramic so it hopefully burn (plus I will only use proper bulbs from now on) ,

Are Philips 9006 Vision Upgrade Headlight Bulbs any good ?

Thanks again .

Yes that appears to be what your looking for , just remember to use some butt connectors and tape or shrink wrap to protest the connection.

The connectors ended up working perfectly , If anyone ever needs to do this project this could have not been easier . Just took about 1/2 hour for both headlights . I had some junky bulbs in there which caused this problem in the first place .

The Phillips light bulbs were also very high quality ... Though I'm thinking I should have gotten some stronger ones since these connectors are ceramic and can handle it . I only got the ones that say 30% more vision, But these should last a long time.


Thanks again Jeff for your input . You saved me $200 :)

Okay thanks for all the good information. BUT, I really need to know which screw I turn? There should be two on each headlight if I'm right. One for left/right, one for up/down?

I had an 02 ls that had up/down and left/right adjustments... Never looked into whether or not they were stock lights but I assume they were.
