You’re awesome for this. No reason to pay someone $600+ to do this when it’s not too hard of a DIY. Thanks for the great video
Glad it was helpful!
Been trying to get these done for my 2007 Infiniti G35s sedan. Just took some spare ones to a shop down the street for me to see if they would know how to do it. They have the slightest clue. This is very much help that I will try and do on my own now and save money. #project 👏🏼
You a 🐐 for making this video bruh
Real goat
Wow the best dioded dynamics halo video out of all here on UA-cam dyi with wiring details helps a lot!!!
Glad it was helpful!
I like this a detailed simple video , shows how to do everything , very creative and dope lookin mod thats actually custom , not just a sticker or blacked out tail lights
You can charge 5-750 easily for this and be backed up for months! Great tutorial sir
You ain't lyin!! 🎯💯 With him showing how to do it, those who are brave enough, can tackle it themselves..
Cool, thanks
I do it for a living and I typically stay busy doing it.
I'm actually doing a set right now as we speak lol
@@shaunoguinn1015Do you have any 90mm I can Purchase of you?
About a hundred of these views are from me but I'm almost done, and without this video I probably wouldn't have attempted it, I would have paid someone's high price. So thank you
This is what its about for me. I'm glad you are attempting it
Best informative video on UA-cam
Glad it was helpful!
Just ordered everything! Found an extra set of tail lights in a scrapyard for $66! Let the project begin...... well I guess thats when DiodeDynamic gets the stock back in. Lmao
Excellent I'll definitely be doing mine. Looking for the spiralling effect. Thank you you're appreciated
You can avoid having to cut the housing by putting it in the oven at 350°. Just be sure to remove the ballast first to avoid damaging it. You then simply (and carefully) pry it apart. I didn't know this prior to watching your video and just now learned it since I'm thinking of doing similar. Thanks for the video!
Try the oven method and post it.... cutting does seem kinda raw for me
i thought he was crazy cutting these up. i haven't tried it on my tail g37 lights but i've separated many lenses from headlights and tail lights by baking them
With Gs taillights in general you can’t bake them in the oven, there plastic welded to the lens, I retrofit and always have to cut the tails. Headlights easily go in the oven.
Finally thank you.
Who here has done the oven method instead of cutting them off ???
Great video been wanting custom tails and honestly didn’t want to pay the price for them 👍👍
90 and 110mm rings
yes that is correct, you need a pair of 90mm and a pair of 110mm see the links in the description for diodedynamics,
@@1BuildMedia is a coupe the same?
@@christians8114 apologies for just seeing this. I dont want to steer you wrong. I am not sure.
@@1BuildMedia can I use a 80mm or even 100mm cause I can’t find 90mm anywhere
I'm sure you can make it work
Your the only one with good instructions
You don't need the tails as turns modules. Sell em, and ditch them. You can wire directly to the OEM pigtails (ON/BRAKE/TURN) and will work fine. Maybe your issue is 1 driver trying to run 2 specific halos? Also, could just depin your wires, no need to cut unecessary holes. How is your seal? Why not use rubber buytl to seal those lights? Why ditch clear lens for halos? You recommend the 2 prime sizes for halo applications, however halo sizes can vary depending on application . FYI Halo sizes vary on build applications and builds can retain those clear OEM lens. All in all, thanks for the step by step and wish you the best
This was lowkey a passive shady comment
@@zekekormos3917 biggest hater on here bro if your so smart then please tell us how to do it without the driver
Thanks man you really inspired me to do this on my own. I appreciate you 👍👍👍
Glad I could help
Could you not wire the halos directly to the circuit board?
Hey man, great video. Helped through a lot of the work. Although, I’m having a slight issue, all of my things work except they don’t turn on when the headlights are on. Turn signal, lock/unlock, brake all work fine. But they don’t run when the headlights are on. Does it have something to do with the extra yellow off of the drivers? I didn’t touch those. Thank you
Check the wiring config in the pinned comments
How do you get the big red piece back on after you cut it out.
What would be the best way to color match the little part on the trunk with the reverse light? Tinting it maybe?
That's right I tinted mine.
If you open the trunk section and paint the housing with the same paint it will be identical to the main tail section. A little more work but perfect results.
would the 90mm and 120mm work too? i cant find the 110mm anywhere
Hey got a question, currently working on a project doing the quad halo set up. I have the red halos going from black>to black
Red> green , white> green and white
And i have the switchback halos yellow> green with yellow and i have the black fused with the black from the red halos both going into the black from the oem harness. However when i brake the ambers turn on instead of the red. Any idea why? I only have black and yellow going to the harness.
If I added load resistors woukd I put them on the wires that came w the halos or the original wire of the tailight? (G37)
That's a good question. You put them on the original wire that will also eliminate the need for tail as turn
What a life saver, thank you bro
You inspired me to make my own , boss you are the best doing this video 🫶🏽🫶🏽
How’d you get the brake light in the middle the flash when you hold the brake boss man. + thank you so much for the video
There is something you can buy that does that. You can find them on Amazon. Brake light strobe controller. They normally have the info on how to install it.
Is the lense glued on? I'm asking because I'd rather use the oven method to open the light instead of cutting.
Yes its glued on. Its not like the headlights. You definitely have to cut
Taillights you can’t just open them by heating them up.. Is welded plastic so you need to cut them open..
What if add antoher ring but smaller to light back up I think it gonna be like Supra MK4 aftermarket tail light
What fits my g37 sedan the 120 or the 110? And does it have to be the red ones because I can’t find the 90mm red without buying the 120mm
You should be able to get those to work
Would it work if i do diode dynamics 110 mm and morimoto 90mm halos? diode is backed up for the 90mm . Sounds crazy but was just wondering
Im not sure what morimoto connections look like. I wouldnt want to lead you blindly
@@1BuildMedia another question did you have to use the t-tap connector ? Or the wire pigtails.
Or did you just cut a bit of the cable and twisted both wires into one (for when using only one driver for two halos) . Also do you recommend using only one or is it better to use two?
Real yaad man big up fam, I appreciate this vid
great video 🔥 will be attempting this soon will it work on my g37 coupe?
I am sure the process can be applied
Is it possible to get amber tailnas turn? So normal red but turns to Amber when indicating
Not with my method and what I purchased. They sell different halos with different drivers, check those out. Thanks for checking out the video, dont forget to subscribe
You have video on how you wired the halo to the OEM wires?
See pinned comment
how do u disconnect the plastic connecter ?
Can u explain what wires to tap into u didn’t show us that part
This is now in the video description and also pinned in the comments
Are the halo sizes the same for the coupe?
I'm not sure
Do u have to seal hole where wires come out????
No
Did you have to break the red thing that holds the connector/harness? Can’t seem to be able to take it off without cutting it
I was able to take it out, but do what suits your situation
@@1BuildMedia another question for the green wire , did you get rid of that bulb? Is it even needed? Or did u just tap it into that wire
I'm not sure what you mean. Dm me on IG with a pic. g37supreme
So the diode dynamic turn and tail won’t work for halos ?
With mines the brake lights won’t turn but everything else works but the brake light I just order a dio dynamic module turn I’m hoping it fixes the issue
90mm and 120mm Should work fine right? what you think?
I think those should be okay
Did you get a whine from the cabin when you turned them on?
with my factory radio no. with my tesla screen yes.
What about that trunk part, is it doable as well!?
What do you mean? the only thing I did post video was to wrap it so it matches the look of the other lights.
@@1BuildMedia i think he meant doable as if the trunk light was solid too and matched, not little red dots that makes it the break trunk light
@@g37x-modsandclips37 Haaa I see what you mean. The trunk lights dont light up with the break lights. they only house the reverse lights in a non red section that illuminates when in reverse. I hope this answers the question @s. galarneau
Appreciate the vid brotha, any idea if it’s the same sizes for a g37 coupe?
I am really not sure. I know the coupe has a bit of concave that cuts into the lights so you wont get the full halo for the smaller halo light, you would have to do some cutting to get it to fit properly there. Hope you find a video that helps.
@@1BuildMedia okay for sure thank you I subscribed🤙🏽
did you end up finding the coupe size?
@@juniorcts9747 add my on insta. It’s the same as my name here
Do we have to Dremel it or can they be heated and pulled apart?
Dremel
Has anyone tried this on the convertible? Do the same parts apply?
Same measurement as 2010 G37x coupe?
Im not sure. Thanks for checking out the video, dont forget to subscribe
Anybody else have a white noise emitting from the speakers after installing? When I mute the audio it stops but once I turn it up even just one you start to hear the noise
Check the comments you will see what i recommended for someone else
Good looking on the video mad props!
Appreciate that
Blessings fam...🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
respect!
Do you need to buy 2 pairs of the halos?
You need 1 pair of both sizes
Hey bro, my right tail light is hyper flashing. Is there a solution to fix it ?
Resistor or use the tail as turn
My tails are failing, the LEDS are going out. Is it possible to just do this to those?
Just make sure it's not your actual wiring that's going bad. If not then you can proceed at your own risk of course
What gauge wire do you use?
Im not sure I understand the question all the wires cames with the halos.
How did u seal it, no water got in after a while?
I used the expoxy to seal the edges no water gets in the ligt its been 2 years and counting
Awesome video supper informative and btw man how did you access the third brake light?
I will do a quick video on that.
Does this work if my driver taillight has the unlock button?
Yes same principle applies. I have seem videos that details how to do it for g35 lights as well.
😍 I need this 😩
So I have to pay $170 in total? Anyway I can find halos for cheaper or nah.
You can. But I went with a reputable brand.
Do you have to spray paint them?
see full video.
@@1BuildMedia yea I know you did but do you have to?
You don't have to but I'm not sure how it will look with the chrome when it's illuminated
@@1BuildMedia just finished them I left them chrome still looks good though only because you just kind of see the reflection of the bottom but still look kind of the same thanks a lot for the tutorial saved a couple hundred bucks
That looks amazing
Does the paint affect the reflector at all?
No not even a little bit
What about the side leds? Did you do anything to those or just sprayed over it?
@@joeldiaz615 I sprayed everything. only thing you see are two halos. see my ig @g37supreme
Looking to try this on my G35
Dang the 90mm are on back order for like two months...
Lmao same, just got mine & doin em this weekend tho!
How did you get the 3rd brake light to flash?
I'll do a video soon
Great video bro..
Thanks for the visit
Any links for the halo rings
see description
Does this work on g35?
I'm not sure. You got to go to the site and find out
Can someone help me out, I did mine but my won’t turn on when my lights are on they will blink n turn on when break
look at my pinned comments for wiring info
I did but now when I turn my left blinker they both off
Did you figure this out?
Now I’m almost a gtr 😂
so 220$ for basically gtr tailights
Really nice mod!
Would a 90 and 100 work?
It would yes
Would you do this for money? Looks like too much work for me!
I have thought about it. I am not there yet. alot of guys do it, you can find them on IG.
Hey I did this project and when the halos are at low brightness (like when you turn your headlights on) the LED driver box makes a very high pitch ringing noise, audible from the cabin. But when I press on the breaks and the halos go to a more intense brightness the ringing noise stops until it returns to normal brightness. Any thoughts on this noise?
What kind of radio? Stock or android?
@@1BuildMedia stock, and I know it was coming from the LED driver for the halos, I held it up to my ear.
Took a minute to find this link. I had the same issue but I have the Android radio. It was so bad I put my stock radio in and all of that went away. That wasnt permanent as I wanted to put my Tesla screen back in. I ended up purchasing this device which pulls power directly from the battery: www.diodedynamics.com/switchback-solid-state-relay-harness-pair.html
You will have to do this at your own risk. I have no videos of it nor do i remember how to install it. Also you should double check your wires as it could be a grounding problem. Like I said I had no issues when this was paired with the stock radio, then again I had a subscriber that did both his headlights and swapped the radio and had no issues whatsoever.
Bro what about us 1st gens 🤔
sorry man I could only work on what I have, I am sure some of it is applicable to you.
I can build you some! Check out my work on Instagram @sandiego.retrofit
How much did the parts cost you?
$280 I had most of the tools already.
Can I pay someone to do these for mine?
You can send me a dm on Instagram @g37supreme we can talk there
@@1BuildMedia I have a g37 ipl coupe. Would it still work?
The same method applies
from the taillights
🤝
Can u do mine
I dont

What’s that tool called that you’re using to open the lights up?
Rotary tool or dremel. Link in description.
Видео крутое но был бы перевод цены не было бы
Nice!
Big up 🇯🇲
You know you didn’t have too use a dremal you could of used a heat gun too take them apart
876lifestyle
🤦🏻 bro really used a dremel to open the tail lights. Wow !!! And I thought I was dumb. It’s called heat gun bruh you gotta watch UA-cam videos before actually making one and fucking up those tail lights. Definitely won’t attempt this to my tail lights. I’m done here. NEXT !!🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻
Thank you so much for stopping by. I appreciate your time and feedback. I will sleep better knowing that you did!
Did you use 110 or 120 mm
is it easy to take the trunk reflectors off too and spray those black? I dont like the mismatch
Three little bolts. I actually wrapped mine to match later on.
Do you have to solder anything for this project?
I didnt have to
