I have rewired mine a couple times for diffrent reasons. There is only one harness as you already know. From what I remember the wires used are both blk/wht. Wht being +(pos) and and blk -(neg).
- Easiest way to wire them up is in "series" (Some might understand and some won't - better explained below)
-Reuse black plastic boots ( I just removed the contacts inside and ran the new wires back through the bottom) This assures that the LED's will stay in place and not flop around.
- Find the blk wire and wire it to the -neg of one LED
- Take the +pos of that same LED and wire it to the -neg of the next LED and so on
-When you get to the last LED you should have a +pos white wire left which you then connect to the +pos white wire from the wire harness
- Reinstall headlights and they should work just fine. Some people use diffrent connectors for wiring and others solder them together, anyway you choose will work just make sure to cover exposed wires with electrical tape.
Look in my image gallery and you can see what I did with mine. If I didnt have a bright yellow car red LED's would look pretty cool. Let me know if you have anymore questions after reading this....
