DIY: LED Halo w/Video's

VDC_OFF · 11-25-2013, 11:55 PM

what I usually do is run the wires out of the headlights. Find a ground to connect the black wires and run the power up to the battery and into the passenger side by cutting a slit into the rubber wire cover. Under the dash is cigarette lighter, you can tap into that yellow wire using a plastic wire tap connector from autozone. This should now allow your lights to turn on when the car turns on.

New project:
I have a set of XB's and a set of Blue colored COB's (RGB type LEDS). I am going to try to mount them both. I'll wire the white XB's to run as daytime lights and the Blue COB's I'll run to a switch in the cab.

I'll post details when I get them done. Not sure how it will come out but at least its something different. I'll also add dual demon eyes to go with the upgrade to my own car.

That sounds sick! I've got mine all mocked up and going to paint this week. Having my body shop custom paint then. I'm doing dual halos and demon eyes. Can't figure out where to mount the demon eye led yet though. LMK if you have any thoughts. I got a multiple color led for the demon eyes and a remote. Hoping to not run a switch in the car but just rig it up to the remote. Here's a little mock up pic

Looks great man.. Make sure you swap out your stock turn signal bulb for an led bulb. The heat off the stock dual filament bulb will heat the lens up and bubble your paint. An LED turn signal bulb will be cooler and help with heat saturation.
