My very crude diagram how to wire the diode for the high beam shutter and high beam bulb to workThe diode prevents the low beam from backfeeding and activating the shutter and high bulb. But the High Beam switch will activate the projector, shutter, and bulb.I used a 15SQ045 Diode, found a pack of 20 on Amazon for $6. ...

Once you are fully sure the projectors beam angles are 100 percent where you want them to be, you can do a final install. THe projectors use a threaded shank to mount to the housing. But to prevent it from moving or rotatring, i used a good bead of RTV on the back of the projector to glue it to the reflector of the housing. Then i let it dry.After that i used another bead of RTV to glue the lens to the housing. Many people use butyl sealant but I prefer RTV, I used tape to hold the lense tightly in place so it does not pop out before it driesYou want to make sure you clean inside the housing VERY well before installing the lens. And dont get any smear or RTV inside when installingI gave plenty of time for the RTV to fully dry before installing ...

You might want to power the projector up to make sure the beam pattern is the correct orientation and is properly level before you do final install. You will not be happy if you find there is any angle deviation between each headlight...

This is testing the high beam operation. Both the projector, shutter, and high beam bulb are on and working properly.I am using a LED highbeam bulb so the color will match the projector.With both the projector and the high beam bulb, they are BRIGHT.

This was testing the function of the diode and hightbeam to make sure it operated properly. I had already removed the driver side headlight but finished the passanger side first which is why it is upside down.This is the low beam. The shutter is closed and the high beam bulb is off.

Because the Expedition has a separate highbeam and lowbeam bulb but the projector uses one bulb for both with a shutter for highbeam. This makes an issue that lowbeam would work fine but highbeam would not. You would either have an issue that highbeam would activate the shutter but not the bulb. Or the highbeam would activate both, but so would low beam. Or you ignore the shutter and use the separate high beam bulb.I used a 15SQ045 diode that i found a 20 pack on Amazon for $6. They should be rated for 15 amps each but i doubled the diodes to try and help . Not sure it was the correct thing to do but its what i did.A simple fix would be to use a diode on the highbeam so it allows power to go to both the shuitter and the bulb, but prevents the low beam from activating the shutterThey also do sell 'bi-xenon' relay kits to do this but a diode will work just fine if you understand how to use them.Not only did i do the diode, but i wired the separate highbeam bulb so not the projector and the high beam bulb will be activated for max brightness....
