      That's right it gives me a reasonable understanding of how I should go about doing the job. It's especially useful as these items can be found on ebay with it stating in the description "No Instructions Provided"

    If you still have the car you should connect the unusfull wire to the pink of the flasher. Your drl will go from white to orange blinker

      Appreciate it the feedback! Unfortunately I don’t have the car no more 😞
      But after I posted the video, maybe like a few months after, the lights stopped working. I should have used a fuse tap but we learn from mistakes! ✌️

    My suggestion is to remove the bumper...yes I know is more complex, but keeping the wiring all over the radiator is not a good idea...it gets too hot and could affect the wires...the best is to keep those wires all the way down away from any mechanical part

    I'm pretty positive that extra wire that you taped off is for turn signals. Also, I would never use a knife like that. One, it could damage things, as shown and two, it's just unsafe. I'd look into using basically anything plastic.

    It takes 15-30 minutes to remove the front bumper and attach the wires to the fog lights' wire. A handful of cable ties and your set. Never the less it is a lot more safe

      @Marvin1martian  4 роки тому

      I would have that problem too. They wouldn't turn off. What I did, unplugged the drl wires, disconnect the battery from the car for like a minute, put everything back, and see if the lights turn off. Hopefully it helps.
