OK i just bought ANgel Eyes off Ebay for my 97 Ex, i had a couple of questions and i hope someone can help me with them. OK first the angels have two wire coming out of the back of the head lights right were the bulb is, there is one red and one black it looks like a neon hookup like red is positive and the black is negtive or ground but can someone tell me what these wires are and what i should do with them. Second the headlights came with two it looks like rubber washers and i have no idea that to do with them so can someone please tell me what they are for, it came with some directions it has a picture of what it looks like the washer things but i dunno if it is, the directions say 1. Please don't damage this part. It has function for lighting( and it has an arrow pointing to a wire the is coming off the ring) 2. Connect the black line to the negative electrode of the park/signal/ side marker lamp. And then it repeats the same over for number three so i really dont know what they are talking about. So can someone please help i REALLY need it thanks!
Help With Install of Angel Eyes

They are confusing, I agree, mine didn't even come with instructions really. That little black thing they're talkin about... don't worry about it, just don't cut wires on the lights themselves other than to trim them a bit and you're fine. If they're like the angel eyes I got, then those other two wires are for this little light on the inside (towards the center of the car I mean). I didn't even connect mine cause I thought they looked dumb. Hold on dude.. I'm gonna go take some pics of my lights...
Can't find my camera! Give me a bit more info on what you've done so far and I can help ya. Sorry I can't find my camera to take pics with, it was confusing for me the first time too, but I've done a couple now, so it's not too hard. Just give me a bit more info.
ok so the little black things have no use what so ever? and the red and black wires are for a different light, so it doesn't affect the Angel ring at all you are saying? So far they are just sitting in my room because i haven't had the weather to put them in yet.
You said don't cut any wire, are you talking about the black and red wires? if so what do you think i should do with them or what did you do with them? I have another question, so really all i have to do is just plug them in and they should work right like they will have high and low beams and everything?
Yep, pretty much. If you want to run your halo rings, it's a 12+ type setup. So are your parking lights. So... to make your halos work, wire them into your parking lamps just as you would anything else with on red and one black wire.
To get your projectors to work.... just hook `em up llike you said. You'll have high's and low's, it's just the halos that take the extra wiring. I'm not sure what brand you have, or what your wires look like, but it should be the same as mine.
What I was saying about the wires is that as long as you're not cutting anything way short, you're fine. Trimming is cool, removing longer peices is not.

It's easiest to wire the angel eyes to the blinker.
how would u do it without ur halos blinking when u use the blinker.. aka, how would u wire to your parking lights, can i tap into the corner light wires or do i have to run wires all the way back to the switch on the steering column? thanks
alright look at the wire with just the yellow bulb. There should be a total of three wires. You can tap them into those wires which is prolly the quickest. i did this before the summer, i dont now what colors go where, ummm if you need to know that let me know ill go out to my car and loo i would right now but i just woke up and its cold out
i just spliced into the running lights for the halo rings. So rings come on when the parking lights come on. Red to red parking light wire, black to the black parking light wire (since hte black wire is already grounded for the parking lights). The rubber things you were talking about I think go around metal connector for the headlights...used to keep the water out I think. U might have to take pics, cuz I'm not sure exactly which piece you are talking about.
One of my rubber pieces ripped, and water got inside, and corroded the wire completely off. Had to reconnect and rewire the whole headlight to get my headlight to work. =(...
