just route it to the neg cable of the battery. If you do it to your headlamps, you will only be able to turn them on when your headlamps are on.

Just ordered 3.. Thanks for the tip!

Also, as always, check your local laws as you may be required to hook them into your headlight wiring as it may only be legal for them to work with the low beams or vice versa.

im going to say this without actually having my lights yet but with experience with my other Hellas...i believe the green wire youre talking about leads to the relay and makes it so that they can only come on when you headlights are on (in my case, instructions said to tap into the high beam wire). now if you don't want to do this (i know i didnt), i just tapped into one of the cigarette lighter power wires. you can basically tap into any wire that gets power. if it has power only when the vehicle is on, thats when you can turn on your lights. if it has power all the time, you can turn them on all the time. hope that helped.

there pretty bright, but hard to tell during the day, when i get home from class i'll take another picture at night.



do you'all think these can be submerged, and what needs to be protected from water.

What an amazing find! They aren't the highest quality lights, but heck, this beats out just about anything at $9.99. Thank you so much!

Ordered two sets...figure one will serve as back up lights, roof rack mounted, dunno about the other one.
