OK guys, seems like almost all Aftermarket headlight housings, for the NNBS at least, use H1 Bulbs. I just picked up some aftermarket headlight housings which I really like. They have the Projector Low-beam which I intend to use HID's in. I am going to get the MoriMoto 35w 5500K Elite kit, but am trying to figure out the best way to do this. The Truck harness is for H11 Bulbs, so I can get an H11 HID kit but will need to figure out how to get the H11 bulbs to work in the H1 Housing, and would be the best answer so I don't have to worry about any wiring. I can also get the H1 HID kit, but will need to find an adapter to go from the H1 Ballast, to the H11 Truck Harness.

So, either need to figure out how to use an H11 Bulb in a H1 Housing, or convert the H11 Truck harness to the H1 Ballast.

Does anyone know of possibly an adapter that I can put into the housing so I can use H11 Bulbs?

I also just sent MoriMoto an Email about this. I notice on their website for the H1: Elite HID Kit, they have an option for a H11 Relay Harness. So, maybe that is what I need to convert everything, we will see once I get a reply back.
