How to wire led strip in headlights

These headlights should be here in a few days and I can't find anywhere on here or YouTube on exactly how to wire the led strip so that I may have them on in all light positions, if anyone knows or has specific instructions please let me know! Also if you have any ideas where to get the best h1 bulbs for these I need 4!

 

Bump

 

Nothing?

 

Wire them into the parking lights

 

How do I go about do that? And that's the small bulb in the top corner right?

 

If they don't draw much wattage then you could get away with tapping right into the parking lamp cicuit. A couple of T-taps, probably a ground and you're done.

If there's any concern about wattage I would use a relay powered off the battery and use the parking light circuit as the signal source.

Or you could just run them off of the battery with a switch in the cab. That way you could have them on exactly when you wanted. Only drawback to that way would be you would need to remember to turn them off once the truck is shut down.

There are other options too....depending how involved you want to get. Like powering them off of a ignition on only source. That would eliminate you accidentally leaving them on.

 

I'll try this and let you guys know how it foes

 

yes find the power side of the parking light then splice the wires together, i use waterproof heat shrink connectors, or slide heat shrink down the wire before you solder you can use the same ground or use a separate ground wire.

 

I don't have a soldering gun so what's best to use? And I put black to black and red to red?

 

anyone else know how i am supposed to wire these to the running or parking lights

 

Yes or you can use a separate ground. Black wire. And not cut the original black wire.. I would,show you pics but to far away from my truck

 

Okay thank you!
