hey there, i'm new to the forums so excuse me if i post this in the wrong section.


I have purchased some new altezza style lights for my 94 integra.


here's a link to them

a problem i have run into to is this. the led's have their own connector, an orange and a black wire. i believe that they are supposed to be my running lights but the original connection has a green, red and a black wire. The stupid box didn't come with installation instructions so i'm a tiny bit lost.


i'm thinking that the red (original) and orange (led) wires should be spliced together. I don't want to start messing with it a screw something up thou.


any help would be appreciated.

I would contact the seller and ask him for a wiring document from the company.


Let us know what he does for you about it!

It took me a minute of thinking, but i figured it out. there are 4 light connections in the original setup. i had to remove one, the side running light and splice in the LED. that took care of the problem.


sometimes it just pays to reconsider the problem :)

As a side note to this project, remove power via the negative battery cable or you will blow your fuse when you splice! HID headlights are a GREAT upgrade. They really lightup the road [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

And yes, do as AkinDen recommends you do 1st, must disconnect the Negative battery cable always when working on your car...except when trying to find shorted wiring....I Think [img]smileys/smiley17.gif[/img]
