How to wire headlights?
I'm getting new headlights and they are angel eyes projector with led strip in them. They say I have to wire them up to my stock headlamps. I don't know how to do that. Can anyone help me out. Thanks.

If you can look at my album titled headlights and that should give you a good idea on what they look like. It's the only album there b/c I'm a little new to this site. Thanks

May I ask - why don't you have the place you bought them from send you complete instructions on doing this? Isn't that part of what you paid for ? Heck, I got an install guide for my electric can opener, lol.
BTW - IF the procedure involves cutting and splicing into your existing vehicle wiring harness, I'd return them for a refund. Any decent units will at least come with mating connectors for your specific truck ( even for tying into the sidemarker circuit t run the halos / Led strips ). Making the units plug n' play. Unless you are very proficient, cutting/splicing can be a reliability nightmare down the road.
Regardless, yer gonna find that these will produce a very poor, uneven, hotspotted, narrow beam pattern - worse than what you now have ( especially if you simply upgraded the bulbs in yer stock housings ).
Hardly what I'd call an upgrade - this is cheap chinglish junk - like most all of their ilk on fleabay, etc. Bonus - they look ricey
There are many, many threads on this subject - a simple search may have saved you the grief yer going to experience.
Want superb lighting? Invest the money you saved with the refund here: www.theretrofitsource.com.
Lastly - to be clear - I'm not trying to cause you grief - I'm simply attempting to help you avoid it. It IS yer truck and yer money though. And you are the only one who will have to live with the consequences of your choices.
Good luck!
