Steelblue E36 Build Thread

Yeah you should just be able to pull the hids out and put halogen bulbs in. Unless the PO did something janky.
Good to know, is H1 the right kind of bulb? It looks like its a bundle of plugs, it doesn't look like wiring is cut, looks like adapters that came with the HID kit or something.

Yeah H1s are your best bet

Don't cut anything. It's not that hard to get open. Are both latches stuck, cable broke? I have gotten e36 hoods open by pulling out a kidney grill and working on the latches through the hole.
Sadly I have done that. I have the kidney out bumper off hole cut in shroud. I have jiggled, pulled & WD40d almost everything. I even tried to unscrew the latch from the underside. Note it's only the passenger side that's stuck and It releases alittle but but not all the way.

You can pop out the driver side turn signal, grab the cable and pull on it to get it to pop. Taking the grills out doesn't give you the access you need. I have used a claw hammer to get grab the cable to pull on it for the leverage needed to do it.

I agree, you DO NOT need to cut anything. Its just finicking with various pics/screwdrivers/etc to release the latch.

If it is just the right side latch that is stuck, you can just grab the cable that is between the latches through the kidney holes and pull it forward. Possibly pushing down on the hood above the latch to help it release if the tension is high. My cable is broken inside the car and that is how I get my hood open, janky I know but I have a ratchet strap as backup. It's super classy.

“Yeeted it open”
one more time in plain English?

https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=yeet
"1. to make a violent motion of any variety, such as a "whip," or any motion that maybe associated with violent camera shake or photo blur."
Technically should have been "Yote".
"However, it's tenses are often used incorrectly. In the future, you "will yeet," In the present you "are yeeting," and in the past, "you yote."
"Yote" is often replaced with "yeeted," but that is a prime example of poor grammar. Using "yeeted" instead of "yote" would be like saying "eated" instead of "ate." It makes you sound like a baby or a moron."

Urbandictionary is the ruination of the English language
