Making the Halo Glow?
I have these headlights installed, but how the hell do I get the actual halo rim to glow?!
This is the headlight I'm talking about:

Re: Making the Halo Glow?
No way.. really?!
haha JP... but, really, this has to be like a "wiring for dummies" or something because I have no idea what I have to splice together... (I want it connected to the turn signals/parklights.. but how?)

Re: Making the Halo Glow?
It may help some viewers to see the clips in the following picture (sorry about the focus):

I wouldn't use #1 or #2 on any exterior or underhood connections. They are dry connectors and they will corrode with the "greeny-meanies". This style of connectors have been around for over 20 years.
#3 has a special gel filling that seals the connection, and is better for exterior work. This is a 3M connector.
I personally prefer to solder all my connections; inside and out.

Re: Making the Halo Glow?
my halo wires didn't come with anything, so now that i know what taps to get, I need to get 4 of them right? 2 positive 2 neg. right?
What kind of spade connectors do i put on the ends to connect to the wire taps? Part number and/or picture? That was very helpful by the way thanks!

Re: Making the Halo Glow?
Yeah... 4 of them. As I recall there's a black and a red wire coming from each halo. The instructions said which was positive and negative. (I used a test light to find the positive wire from my parking lights.)
There are many different kinds of clips, and I don't have p/ns. You will be able to get them from any parts store... just ask them for help. I would hope that they'd be able to explain how to use them.

Re: Making the Halo Glow?
Yeah, I picked some up and connected everything today. They look great. They are a little brighter on the bottom of the halo, but thats ok. Thanks for the help. I'm good with wrenches but not with wires
