Halo projector headlight install.


Well I got my lights today plan on installing them tomorrow just wondering if any one has done this before. There seems to be a set of led bulbs missing but i'm not sure these are the ones I got

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/99-04...0067QQtcZphoto

the 3 vertical lights seem to not have a bulb but I am not sure if they reflect off the halo's?

but anyway if anyone has installed these some info would be nice and if the vertical leds do need a bulb and you know what kind I would greatly appreciate to know where to get them and how to put those in.

the leds idk, but the install should be pretty simple. the stock lights pretty much slide out and those look like they accept the stock wiring.

edit: just read a little down the page, they are direct oe fit so the install itself shouldn't take but 5 or 10 minutes tops.

yeah I have to do some splicing for the halos but that seems about the worst of it.

unplug your old lights
then there's gunna be 2 lil holders or black things that you gotta slide out per light

after that the light can be slide right on out then slip the new ones in.

yeah but I have no idea what to splice into. There is the plug for the main bulb , and the plug for the turn signal. I each has 3 or 4 wires running into it and I have no clue which ones the run the wires for the halos into. I also have no clue which is positive and which is negative on the wires for the plugs.

Red is +, black is -
Your going to connect the halo wire to the head light or park light one, which ever one you want for when you put the lights on to come on.
Thats all its simple man.
Take a pic of all the wiring a close up shot and post it. I"ll show you.

I'll post a pic in a bit but my wires are 2 black and a white with a red stripe I am guessing white is positive but I'm sure about which black wire.

You are correct. Now you get the black and white, decide where you want to connect to head light or marker light.

i did my halo's up to a seperate switch... a few of my buddy's have had the halo lights & the halo's always burned out when they had them wired to the main lights.. i didn't wanna take any risks so i just wired em to a switch!

i really don't like the visibility of these lights at all with the lowbeams.. i am half tempted to get rid of mine & put on some smoked headlights..

They are at least 10 times brighter than my old ones so I am happy. I hooked them up to make sure they work and they are great. The bulbs for the halo seems easy to replace so I'm not to worried about that.
