  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

HID to LED Headlight Conversion

Where do I find the diagram for a 2018? I will probably hire someone to repin it for me, but I'd like to show them the diagrams. Thanks for the advice!
Yes, you definitely should start with a harness diagram. You can ask your dealer or buy an access Hyundai Service Website
 
Hey guys I know I haven't posted on this in a while, but the other night I finally found two companies in China to supply the male connector. I'm trying to work out a deal so that they ship a small batch. They normally want a minimum order of 200 pieces each part. I don't foresee that many folks are interested. Two versions of the harness would make sense, a simple harness that reroutes the stock wiring and allows High-beam and amber LED with a capacitor to prevent DRL flicker also a more complicated harness that would have an SPDT delay-on relay in addition to the capacitor circuit to allow the amber/white switchback. Thanks to @cRaCkZzZz, he got me interested in this effort again. So we are working on getting the parts to make a custom harness.

P.S. If you have a 2016 model, from my understanding you already have the DRL pin that is actually functional, so you would not need a relay, just a capacitor.
Hey Carlito! Awesome mod man, I noticed you’re in MD, I‘m in the Baltimore area, would you be willing to help me with the conversion if I paid for your time? I’ve got a 2015 3.8 I’d love to do the conversion on but I don’t think my electrical skills are up to par. My email is mitchell.w.baker@gmail.com, send me a message if you’d be interested!

What's up bro. Sorry I haven't been on in so long. Either way, I don't mind assisting. Honestly, I'm about to trade in the Genesis for a Volvo S90 T6. Do you already have headlights? Are you trying to go for the white DRLs or would you be happy with the simpler yellow setup? If you don't have headlights, mine will be going up for sale soon.

No worries man! And thats an awesome ride, I don’t have the headlights yet so I’d be happy to buy em off you, are they in pretty good condition? And I’d really like the white DRLs to be honest, just gives the car such a clean look (and willing to pay for whatever extra is needed to get there). If you want shoot me an email at Mitchell.w.baker@gmail.com and we can plan the details out. Thanks for the response man, excited to get em working!

@Send_It1 Sup dude, shot you an email...
 
You have to repin the terminals in the connector and add a capacitor and probably a relay. Dig into this thread regarding on which terminals you should repin in the connector. The diagram for the experiments is posted above. I made adapters for my 2015 because I didn't want to mess with a factory harness.
Hey Man did you make a wiring Diagram for your adapters by chance? I have a 2015 Genesis sedan with original Bi xenons, bought the new g80 LEDs and CarlitoGR helped me get the harness repinned so everything works except the auto headlight mode (DRLs are flickering amber). Last project with this car and this one is driving me crazy, appreciate any help you could lend!

Where you able to get the issue resolved? I have a 2015 sedan and looking to upgrade to the led headlights. I am also in the Maryland area.

Unfortunately not, haven’t heard back from Carlito on the harnesses he was making and I don’t have the electrical skills to finish it up. Sucks but the lights work well they just have a flickering orange light for the DRL on auto mode, so I keep them on all the time. Frankly wouldn’t recommend it, sucks but not worth the hassle if something goes wrong - I learned the hard way.

Appreciate the reply. Thanks for the advice.
 
Here is the video that I said I'd post.

Yes, contact me.

I'm from Bulgaria, also part of European Union.
The big problem in Europe with the car prices is that the country is putting on your car alot of taxes - from ecological tax, import tax because car is made out of EU, excise duty, and you finish with the ~20% VAT.
And all of these making cars alot expensive than in US and Canada...
For example my fully loaded Hyundai Genesis 2016 3.8 AWD european edition costs me around 70000$ back in 2016th
