RE Amemiya headlight instructions

bought a set of RE Amemiya headlights but they came without instructions. I know that they are in japanese and are somewhat sketchy but would love to have a copy of them so that I can install them correctly on my FD. any help, pictures, advice or tips are really apreciated.

TIA

Thanks. Had to believe that of all the kits that have been sold, there cant be anyone that know the ins and outs of installing this kit.

theres not much to it to know the "ins and outs" of. what exactly are you having an issue with? there isnt much to the kit.

for one, the exact limit of the area that has to be cut would be nice to know as not to botch the part of the job that is irreversible.The rest appears bolt on.

Hmm.. I'll see what I can come up with. Hopefully there is a PDF version that exists. I know some of the guys with RE Amemiya, so I will ask if there is a copy they can send me.

TJ seemed like a bit of a Dbag at first, but I've started enjoying his videos. 100% wouldn't have ever watched his stuff if it wasn't for the 7.

Where does the black wire and yellow wire with ring terminals go to anyines thats fitted them? And do you mean the ground will need an inline fuse putting in?

The yellow wires can only be power wires because grounds aren't fused.

Right ive figured out most of the wiring apart from the sold white wire and the white/black stripe wire now i know one is for the normal headlight operation the other for hi beam operation ive taken a look at the wiring diagram for the headlights which one should go where the white to the red white for the hi beam and the other to red/yellow wire? Or ahouldni just try them and see which works?
