    Any chance of getting the GB deal extended to RX350s for '16 owners?

    I'm assuming for the switchback function? I wired my halos differently from everyone. My white function is wired to a switch and my switchback (Amber) is wired into my rear tail lights. I couldn't tap into my dtrl since it will have a constant voltage and will show Amber all the time.

    My parts should be here this Thur. I am just trying to get an idea of how I am going to wire mine. I have a set of LED lights that came on my truck that are right under the headlights. I am thinking I will tap into that wite for the White and tap into the turn signal for the switch to amber when turn signal is activated. Your thoughts?

    White portion sounds perfect! As for Amber, what turn signals are you talking about? Cause dtrl will not work

    Well, the dtrl is the same as turn signal. Is there not a wire there that I can use? Is this why you went all the way to the tail lights?

    Dtrl is the same as turn signal and that's the problem. When your dtrl is on, it sends a voltage to your yellow wire (Amber) and it will cause the halo to active Amber. If you have a multimeter, you can check each dtrl terminal to see what I mean. Even the turn signal wire has a constant voltage.

    I went with the easiest, rear turn signals. I'm sure there is a way upfront but I don't have the wire diagram and don't want to mess with the wire harness.

    How did you get to your tail light? Did you have to go all the way to the lamp itself or is there a connection up closer to the front?

    Do the Halos have a driver? Do all LED,s have a Driver? If so, how will that effect my White when I hook to existing LED,s on truck?

    Yessir. Don't plug it without that driver, no matter what! Your halo will look awesome, extremely bright, assuming you got their newest version. Here's my comparison between their v1 and v2.

    Those look great. Are these the ones you will be installing on your new lights? What does this driver do? Where did you connect your White LED?
