LED Windshield Washers Help! - Honda-Acura.net

alexmcohen · 01-15-04, 02:38 PM

Hey, I'm definitely a rookie, I just a bought a pair of Cobra Eyes, and yeah the instructions are fairly easy, but I don't even know where the side lights wires are or whatever lights I need to hook'em up to. Please, could anyone give a step-by-step tutorial on how to do this myself, like locating the wires, and how to conect them.

Thanks alot.

dont put them on your car...they're gay

habitatsk8r392 · 01-15-04, 10:45 PM

but i see most people just wire them to their parking lights. Find the headlilght bulb and stip some of the insulation of the pos and neg wire off with a razor blade, wrap the corresponding wire from the cobra eyes around them, and tape 'em up...or solder. That way they come on when the headlight switch is flipped.

lkailburn · 01-16-04, 05:47 PM

**Import-Tooner** · 01-17-04, 11:50 AM

You would have to hook them up to the side markers that come on when you just turn on the park lights. You could tap a wire from the positive on that and then just run a common ground. But, I'm with everyone else. They're junk and look

don't do it. Please.

Dont put them on if they are not WHITE or YELLOW(ORANGE) or you'll get a ticket.

billscivic00 · 01-23-04, 07:39 PM

He can still get a ticket depending where he lives whether they are white, orange, yellow, red....since it is not stock lighting, it then is consider illegal lighting, really depends on the cop. Yeah it is ricer, but you can do what you want.

I would run a wire from your fuse box, with a switch to turn it on/off. Ground it under the hood somewhere, at any of the grounding points. You can get a fuse spliter at pepboys your friendly rice shop, and that will allow you to tap into and will give you a 12v with a fuse.

Mr.Badguy · 01-27-04, 12:36 PM

yeah it really easy all you gotta do is run one wire from your battery to the lights, then another wire from your lights to the gas tank. Make sure the gas tank is full or it wont work. Oh yeah for best results hold a tank of gas when you turn on your car.

civicdetailer · 02-08-04, 04:16 PM

yeah theyre easy to hook up.... but for the love of god please DONT DO IT!!!!

slammed_civic89 · 02-08-04, 05:58 PM

I know a guy who has those in green on his 4 door escort, oh yeah he also has 2 white racing stripes down the middle, he's so rice even though he ownes a ford. It's so funny I hate him and his car. DON'T DO IT! PLEASE MAN DON'T PUT RICER LIGHTS ON YOUR CAR!!!! IF YOU DO THEN YOU HAVE TO GET UNDERGROUND LIGHTS AND A BUNCH OF STICKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!

ReVenGe · 02-08-04, 11:26 PM

lmfao.... wow... ive never seen soo many people post a comment in that short amount of time... that must realy mean we care alexmcohen

and mr badguy.... shame on you... hes supose to have a relay going to the ignition before the gastank!

Sonik evolved · 02-11-04, 10:50 AM

Dont do it

MeiSoSlow · 02-11-04, 03:25 PM

YOu can hook them up to the red wire going into ur oparking wire and ground them to the frame. *Then, after that, make sure you fill ur tank with 100 octane fuel and floor it for a few minutes. Then change ur oil and leave the original filter on. Switch the #3 spark plug wire with ut #2 and throw #3 away.

If half of these clowns could manage to properly spell out what they're typing it'd be a hell of a lot funnier.

But what's better is when you have both washer LEDs up front PLUS a washer LED for the rear wiper, too. That's the extra horsepower everyone else is missing.

Does anyone have the color chart handy for which colors are how much horsepower? I thought purple was 10whp, blue was 8, red was 6, and yellow was only 2 or 3, but if you get red & blue together it's more, ESPECIALLY if you can get them to flash.

MeiSoSlow · 03-16-04, 09:34 AM

It was if you put red and blue and make them flash, then that is instantly 50lbs of torque to the wheels. Add white strobe to the mix and you have instant 100 hp to both power bands

DaUthaWhiteMeat · 03-16-04, 11:22 AM

hmm...i'm a RICER (so to speak, all baby blue and white car) but i believe in very clean looks...NO GAY STICKERS, NO GAY LIGHTING, NO BIG STUPIDASS GAY SPOILER 3 TTIMES YOUR CARS SIZE. At the core though, I'm still a ricer, just a ricer with principles :P

as a fellow ricer, one trying to raise the bar from all the ghey stuff...please...dear god please...don't put that crap on yoru car
