Headlight Wiring Assistance

Sorry, I wish I was more inclined with this subject, but here are my Spyder headlights and the red and green wire I cut (like it said to in the stealth mode mod) only allowing the amber DRL's to dim. I want the white led DRL to be on which it always is, just don't want the amber lights to be as well. if I can disable them and only have them as turn signals that would be great.

 

So...maybe the Spyder's have a internal connection that shares the white led juice...can you show the rear of the lamps n wires? the website has a generic instructions for those headlights.

 

here's the amber turn signal bulb with the wires

 

Need to see the rear of the Spyder Headlight...

 

I will send photos tomorrow when I get a chance. Say I cut the green wire in the photo? Is that going to do what I want? Or will it throw a code or something? Thanks for all the help

 

You'd loose the PARKING illumination to that connector and light (Left side).

 

second to last photo with the green and white w/ black stripe wires is for the white drl which is all I want on during the day

 

I don't see where the yellow (or light blue) wires from the DRL & Turn signal wires go into the Spyder headlights...

 

All the wires that go into the headlight are there. Maybe they’re a different color? There is a dark blue wire

 

If you remove the connector to with green wire and white with black runner you loose the Spyder DRL? or is there an internal wire going to them from the turn signal? You mentioned the DRL dims.

 

Correct. The green with white and black stripe powers the sideways u shaped white drl. The yellow, white and green runs the amber drl/turn signal. And the black, blue and red runs the hi/low beams

 

So there is no power from the turn signal running the sideways u shaped drl.

 

So you could then tap into a fused IGN/ACC source to substitute (cut or not use) the green (Parking) wire.

 

Will I get hyper flash? If I cut the green wire? Why would I need to tap into another power source? I’m not the smartest when it comes to this stuff...

 

Which grill you is that? I want one for my 14 as well

 

Just one of the TRD pro knock-offs. Around ~$125 on eBay. ~$400 if you want to go OEM.

 

Ok, disregard the post on getting a ACC source for the LED's.
With the cut wire (green with red stripe) you loose the DRL function on the TURN signal, but this lamp also gets power to illuminate from the Parking circuit. I'm thinking you might have a Canadian version or the Parking settings is always on. And/or the LED's only illuminate with the Parking circuit, making the TURN lamp illuminate also. The Parking wire to the TURN lamp would need to be removed. (No need to cut) Tape the removed terminals (blue & yellow) and a cover hole in connector. There are plugs specific to that connector.

 

Another option: replace the dual filament lamp for a single filament.
You don't need to cut or de-pin the turn signal connector.

 

Thank you for all the help again, I had thought a single filament would do the trick. I ended up cutting the green wire and caping them so they are all sealed up. Looks much better now.
