haha it really is the least descriptive ever.

yeah i just did mine today.

if u use cheap halos ull regret it.

white/black is usually ground so ground that one to the ground wires from your car's wiring harness.

twist the red one with the red one on the parking light
then twist those two red ones with the red wire on the wiring harness

voila u have working halos

cheap?

be prepared for blown fuses...or some sort of problem
i guarantee it'll happen.

have fun. took me 6 hours first time i ever did it

I payed about $92 for my set and they work fine had them quite a while look great. But yea just pull the corner light bulb and put the wires attached to respective parts of the bulb then plug er back in. That may have been almost as vauge as your OP but i am not really sure how better to explaine it.

Sorry guys. its not like i had much more to work with. i did a quick search on google and it pop up from ebay that they normally come with 2 lone wires which power the halo LEDs (DUH ).

Im smacking my forehead because i didnt think about that before. i wired them into my fog lights so when i remote start they come on with the fog lights, as well as when i set or deset my alarm. It looks FANTATSIC. Oh and just fyi no blown fuses or problems at all....yet. Here are a few pictures.

Before:


After





Took me about 3 hours as well. would have been alittle quicker if i knew exactly how to take the stock headlights out and the housing. fitting the halos in there was pretty tough as well the drivers side headlight sticks out alittle on the side and split apart so im going to buy some kind of rubbery foam deal to seal it from any rain or dirt.

christ guys, if he likes the lights let him like them

and how did he "lose the function"?

here's a quick checklist:

____ Do they light up?
____ Do they work?
____ Will they pass inspection?
____ Can you whistle?


If you answered questions 1-3 with a "Yes" then he lost no function.

I think they look terrible but if he likes them that's cool, it's his car. BUT he has "lost a lot of function with these. Headlights don't simply pass DOT testing by "lighting up." They must fill a certain amount of area with light. And I am just going to go out on a limb here and say that these do not have nearly the illumination of the stock lights. The bottom line is that his night time visibility has more than likely been greatly reduced, and that's unsafe.

He's in Florida assuming his profile is correct, their stuff is alot less strict than VAs.

They will pass inspection just fine

Also if those are the TYC ones, they do incredibly well with the HID retrofit (cutoff/brightness wise)

OK OK OK!

My stock ones where alittle "fogged" up and they worked out but these work MUCH better. i can see much further and they are much brighter, regular and brights.

Im sorry, I guess by having halos/angel eyes means your calling every BMW a "ricer". Where do you think the style came from?

Thanks to those of you who did not criticize what I have done to my car. Like Muffin man said, i like them and honestly for those of you who said my lights are terrible, i couldn't give a sh*t what you think. Everywhere has their own opinion and your not driving my car.

Ive actually GAIN much more functionality because they light up even more of the road at night and i have to pass zero inspections. Florida has no inspections at all, what so ever. Lucky me i guess. I have not been pulled over and i actually walked out front of the car tonight to check where they would line up on another car and they seemed to be lined up perfectly (not blinding over cars). Although i dont think they are HIDs they work hella good and I'm extremely happy with them.

Very nice. I like

They wouldn't look bad on your car if it had more modification. Me, I started with suspension and power and worried about things like lights, grills and so forth till the car was actually worth modding. Basically your headlights are way way too out there to flow with the look of a 97 Honda accord. With rims, mugen grill, lip and some hp those lights would fit the car. Now they just appear like fish out of water, in other words it does not look like a car company would have ever of made it which to me seems to lessen the quality of the modded appearance. But enjoy what you what to do is fine, more power to whatever is tight to you. But all those other guys were saying is that their quality is sub par to the quality of oem honda headlamps and that's a fact, period.
