City Lights wiring?
How are the city lights hooked up on a JDM headlight? To an external switch? I'm just curious since I want to get them hooked up as well. Thanks.

no they are wired into the corner light and turn on with your parkin lights....
I do want to find out how to wire this...I have the lights at home however I have OEM side markers to install aswell....I want to do it the "true jdm" way....citylights on as parking lights....and side markers on constant with city/parking lights.....I want my corners to only signal.......anyone done this before??

Re: City Lights wiring? (Pikachu)
3 wires go to to corner lamp - 1 for turn signal, wire is Green, 1 for ground(-)(black?) and one for parking light (+ )(red & yellow). If you want true JDM way disconnect red/yellow from corner light, splice city light into red/yellow & black.
if you want to keep corner bulb as parking light & turn signal - splice into the same wires without disconnecting red/yellow wire from corner lamp
for side markers - splice into green wire & black wire
EDIT city light bulb is a 194 or 168 (wedge bulb)

Re: City Lights wiring? (adirondackR)
The city lights have (2) wires on the passenger side (red, black) and (3) wires on the driver's side. Like stated above, just splice into your corner light wiring for the city lights to appear when you turn on the parking lights.
I just installed these 2 weeks ago.
If anyone needs a set, let me know...I have direct contact with Japan.
Parts I currently have.....
For Sale EG:
JDM folding mirrors
JDM steering wheel
JDM floor mats (black)
JDM defrost switch
No replies on parts: IM me

so if I want my sidemarkers to stay on all the time I'd splice into the red/ yellow wire that the city lights are connected to correct???
My sidemarkers came with no harness....so I assume 3 wires come off them too?? green/black/red and yellow???
for side markers - splice into green wire & black wire

Those are two conflicting ideas.

I've read that the sidemarkers are on constant and blink when turning and the cornerlights just bling when turning but other wise they are off all the time....true or not??

Why does the driver's side city light have an extra red wire?
What is the proper way to wire that side?
