The halo's come on with parking lights & stay on the rest of the time. You have to do alittle bit of wiring for the halos and other lights but that part isn't to bad. The projector lights (low & high beam) take fog light bulbs. The other lights take regular blinker and sidemarker lights. I left the one bulbs on end unplugged so when the park lights are on there is no light on the end halo's cuz the very end sidemarker lights blink too.

Like DaNnYsEvEn says taking the bumper off is a pain in ass, what is the shittiest thing is that nothing ever fits back up the way it did before, well for me anyway im no body shop repair guy.

Damn, that's right. GOod thing you mentioned that. I hadnt thought about that. The light on the end is park of the parking lights, and so are the lights on the side. The side ones I guess would not matter because you wouldnt see them from the front anyways. Where did you connect the halos. That's the only wiring that is not already made on mine. All the other ones are ready to just be plugged in. side markers just plug in, the turn signal plugs in, the driving lights and high beams plug in, but the Halos have to be wired. Would you just connect the front parking light (the outside one) to the halos? and use that one as the power supply for the Halos and not connect it to the outside light? That would make the outside light just sit there though. and never turn on. Plus then that means having to cut wires and crap, which I didnt want to get into. I guess that's why Danny's lights are on that way. Hey by any chance you wouldnt know how I can reverse my turn signals do you? Since I'ma have the bumper off tomorrow I want my turn signals in the bumper to work like my turning signals. (stay on, and blink when turning.) I've seen some accords with it, and it looks nice.

Damn, I just had a brain fart. WHat if I just reverse the wiring. Make the the outside turn signal wire come down to the bumper turning lights (although that would make the bumper stay on and never blink - Thats would still look good though) And make the bumper turn signal wires come up and connect to the outside light. So they would stay off with parking lights on, but blink when turning!!!!!!! Then I would just splice the Halos into the same wires that I run to the Bumper turn signal. Damn. I think I just solved my problem. Now I just gotta make it work.

Default well...

yea it was a bitch working out there in the snow but im used to it since i work outside all day anyway so i guess that was the least of my worries.. well the pic i put up was with just the parking lamps on only. i tapped the halos to the corner lights..i dont like cutting wires either but that was the only way it was going to work for me. the corners i had 2 diff bulb so i had to find out witch one was the blinker and witch one was the park. this was easy since all i had to do was put the switch to the parking light mode and see witch bulb lit up. after that i just cut the wire and taped it....as for the turn signal for the bumper im not sure how to do it but i also seen some cars like that..what i was thinking of doing was going to the junk yard and yanking out the stop/parking bulb connector thingy, from the back.(since it works 2 ways like you want it to. one to stay on for parking lights and one to blink.) meaning there will be 3 wires one to ground, one for parking, and one for turn signal, but i wasnt sure if it would fit into the housing. i was going to cut off the connector in front and just put the ground and turn signal wire together and then just tap the other wire to the corner parking wire. its kinda complicated, but its just my thought...i thought this would be neater cause it would work like your back tails...(the light will still be on while blinking) rather than to just have the bulb just off and on and off and on when you put your turn signal on.

I get what you mean, so they would be dim when they are on, and get brighter for the blinking.

:cheers: Have fun and if you scroll up some up will see the pic where I have my high and low beams on and the bulbs on the side of them with the halos are not lit up. I just disconnected the bulbs(they were orange)they were ****ing up my halo look LoL so if you had yours all hooked up you would have a total of 4 lights on

the problem with the one peice is that they get to hot, the housing wont hold the heat of the hid blub

even if you retrofit into the housing

Danny. I didn't even know they had Halos for the rear lights. Makes me wonder if its time to change mine once again. I was looking at the pics thread. If I could get them right, I would have Halos, parking, driving, bumper turn signals AND Fog lights. LOL damn. That would be way too much. I'll have to sleep on that one.
