    I do believe it should work for you. The fourth LED will be the eye lid.

    Correct, if they look like mine they are first gens. The wiring diagram will work for you.

    yeah...im kinda wondering about all those wires and what im connecting them to as well...though, i hadn't taken a real good look, litterally got them installed as it was getting super dark out, the next day we got 6 inches of rain...so, im still waiting for a nice sunny day off to finish up my project, hopefully tomorrow!

    I dont like it at all, Just my opinion though.

    Looks good on some sports sedans but trucks look silly with Halo and projectors.

    Last I checked they are not legal in California because they are not DOT.

    If you got pulled over that would be a stupid fix it ticket especially if you sold your stock lights.

    I say just do a HID bulb and call it a day.

    Get some splice connectors and tap into the power that goes to your corner running lights. No diagram necessary. If they don't turn on instantly switch the wires, the polarity is backwards. Takes 5 min tops from hood up to hood down.


    LEDs are very dim, you can only see that they are lit up at night. CCFL are very bright, and glow during the day.

    If you're talking about the fogs and if he put H10 HID bulbs in the oem housings, there is no cutoff line other than what the bumper hole does because of them being recessed. There is no hood in oem fog housings.
