Lights

Okay so I just bought new LED tail lights, I installed them, and they light up, but there is a little plug for the LEDs, where can I hook this to? And I also bough LED halo projector headlights, and there are two white and two black wires coming from the head lights, it says to connect them to the "driving lights" but I can't find these, am I just being dumb or what?

Not sure what you mean by the tail lights.

The driving lights are either your DRL or just your headlights. When I had halos and LEDs I just wired them to the parking lights. I think it's a brown wire but check the wiring diagrams for your car. I bought a Hayne's manual which has the wiring diagrams inside. I recommend also getting an inline fuse so you don't run the risk of overloading the system.

My personal experience with aftermarket headlights sucked and yanked them out of the car almost 3 months after I put them in.

If the plug resembles the base of an incandescent bulb, that plug goes into the factory wire harness where the normal bulb would go. You can splice the front side marker bulb in the headlight harness for the halos. Probably easiest as there's only two wires there and black is automotive ground.

Also, if the tails do not have resistors installed, you will need to pick up a couple to stop the hyper flash.
