Default Help with the halo projectors.

First of all they were a ***** to put in. I had to bend back part of the metal right near the edge because they weren't fitting. Now my problem is hooking up the wiring harness and all that jazz. Also the halos have two wires coming out of each light and I can't for the life of me figure out which wire goes where. There's a red and a white wire coming out of each light and I dunno where they go on the parking lights area here. So if anyone has any info that'd help I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

For the halos, just splice one wire into the parking light power wire and the other into ground (doesn't matter which wire). However, if they use LED's then it does matter, and I would guess red wire to the parking lights and white wire to ground.

Well, with the help of my dad (the only licensed electrician in the family) we managed to get em in and glowing properly. I'm thinkin I need to change my corners to euro style or just keep the corners I have and chage the bulb back to amber. I'll go take a pic right quick.

Basically, yeah. I actually had them in before I got a chance to check back on the board today. Here they are as of right now. Any suggestions as to the corner dillema?



Oh, and I bought em off a guy who lives in alhambra. Inland Empire area of southern California.

Ya, either amber or make sure to get hypers that match well with the lights... I'd just get ambers though cause you don't want your corners to be brighter than the halos. It would take away from the effect. IMO
