    Thank you so much for this demonstration and explanation video! I just recently purchased a 1997 BMW Z3 and I was researching how to do something like this with LED lights!🔥🚙💨

      The relay harness is for cars without DRLs. If you have a 12v for current drls then yes you could use that

    Mate I have no idea where you wired the red cable (one that goes to the ignition) to. You didn’t show it at all

    • @AutoDad
      @AutoDad  3 года назад +1

      That's because I didn't old school. I pulled fuses and tested them until I found one that came on with the ignition. Then I stuck the wire in followed by the fuse! OG way. Obviously I don't recommend this. I would take the top of the fuse box out and t tap into the wire that runs to that fuse

  • @caliswaggur
    @caliswaggur 3 года назад

    Hey man, I am not too good with electrical wiring (health care professional here) so I got lost after you fed the wires attached to the halos through your headlight. Where did you end up connecting everything? There was a red and black wire (which came together at the end plastic bit) for each halo. That end was connected into a secondary wire that had 3 wires coming off it (white, red, and black). Could you clarify a bit, thanks

    • @AutoDad
      @AutoDad  3 года назад +2

      White wire is optional and really does nothing. Black wire is ground and red wire I stuck in one of the fuses that comes on when the key is turned on

    • @AutoDad

      To one of the grounding points in the engine bay. Any nut that acts as a chassis ground will work. Usually other black ground wires are connected to them

    Not worth the trouble. They’re not even a perfect fit, and you have to heat the light to open it, compromising the watertight seal. If you don’t get a perfect deal when reassembled you’ll get condensation.
