    Correct. I have successfully incorrectly wired a few pairs now on my own vehicles to prove it!

    Glad to hear everyone liking them so far! I have mine wired up so they come on with the ignition and it makes a great DRL!

    I have mine wired directly to the battery with a relay so I can use them even if the truck is off and key is out.

    I have my light bar and my Duallys wired that way, but since I can actually use these on the road I'm afraid I'll forget to turn them off and kill my battery.

    I've only done that once in a year. Get used to shutting them off. I think with these new leds they could stay on for a week before the battery was dead.

    That's a good point, besides I already have a Rigid D2 harness extra. I'll probably just wire mine straight too.

    Hey Andrew mine showed up today. A quick question was the lamp box supposed to be open? The seal was broken on the box, not the shipping box but the led lamp box.

    the camera on my phone really sucks but all I can say is these make my old fog lights look like flashlights with dead batteries. They may be adjusted too high, this is out of the box.

    Does it look like the sticker was cut or just became unstuck?

    I'll chalk it up to crappy stickers in these cases.

    I would say "unstuck". I checked the plug ends and they dont show any signs of being plugged in already. I just wanted to be safe

    I think white is ground but you can just push the bare pins into the connector before you put on the new connector itself.
