Is the process going to be similar if I have 4 headlights (high and low beams) my goal is to have 2 LED headlights replace needing all 4 and then to just put covers on the low beams I wouldn’t need anymore.
*I bought similar headlights for my 1976 Camaro. I got lazy and connected the halo BT module directly to the battery with a fuse between and I unplug the module when parked. I can control the halos with an app.* 2ndGenFrank
Cool video my dude. I wonder if this will work and fit in my 1971 Camaro. I looked at Classic Industries and they want like $500 for Halo lights!! I looked at the lights you got and $70 for a pair sounds like a steal.
Amazing video. Defiantly putting these in my dads 69 camaro, how did you wire the turn signals for the halo? Did you just run that add on fuse which gave you a tree of connections that you ran to the headlight assembly? Also for that same turn signal on the halo, how does it connect with the flasher? Does it do it by itself or do I have to wire it? If so please let me know how it’s done. Thanks!
Thanks. You will wire a power (ignition on) to get the halo to glow key on. You will just splice the blinker/Amber wire to the front parking/blinker wire. The halo will automatically cycle flash with the amber. No extra relays or flashers needed.
@@McSpeedAlaskanAdventures Quick question. So from the new halo headlight, i will extend the wire and connect it to the running lights which is the turn signal light? Then after that I will splice the new led circular pieces for the running lights into the headlight?
@@KhaiMahase yes. As long as you mean the blinker wire that goes to the parking light. Parking light has a ground, parking light, and then the turn signal/blinker.
@@McSpeedAlaskanAdventures alright, it seems a bit confusing. But how have the headlights held up to this day? Everything working like it should? Also are the headlights really bright? Im doing it on our 69 convertible camaro. Its gonna look killer. So basically I have 327 in our camaro. For the white drl/running light where would that be connected to? After that is connected we need to connect the Blinker. That will be connected to the turn signals(running lights). Then after the headlight turn signal is solved, the led o ring/switchback need to be connected. Where would I connect that? To the turn signal wire on the running lights or on the headlight turn signal wire?
Where did you wire in the red and yellow wire for the halo (white/amber) I will be installing into a 71 Nova. I like the idea of the white halo turning on with one key switch. Thanks
I don’t remember. Sorry. Best thing is to just get some test leads and check them. If you look close in my video you might see the colors when I tested them.
So in theory I can do as you did but if I wanted amber as day time running and the white a blinker , all I have to do is switch those wire connections you did ?
So, I went to the Amazon link, and ordered the same lines for my 69 camaro, the bulb won't line up in the bucket..the 3 tabs don't match up. So I read the box and it says J003BH...maybe shipped the wrong ones. Did you have to modify anything to make yours fit? Thank you
I don’t recall changing anything. I remember spinning then around multiple times as they only fit one way and it will seem impossible until it sits in that slot. That should be the correct part number. I don’t know if anything changed since the original order. Did you try to post a question at Amazon as well?
I tried every direction ..only 3 ways to index, I measured the tabs on new one to my old lights. The distance doesn't match up. I'm returning them. Mechanic for 33 yrs on cars/semi's. If it would fit...I would hope I could figure it out..lol I feel either they were boxed wrong or something. Thanks for the reply. I seen a set on ebay with the exact part number you said..will order them and see.
You can run the DRL pulling a wire off you accessories fuse. And or try your radio fuse. You can buy a connector that will snap into the glass fuse holder and make a male spade end. For the blinker as long as you still have a non LED bulb front or rear in the circuit it should still blink. If you have all LED with your new headlights that have the blinker ring you’ll need an LED conversion flasher relay. Should be easy to look up. Your local store may have one. The LED current load is too low for a standard original flasher to work.
@McSpeed1 where do I find this led conversion flasher relay? Do you have a link for it? Again I have the exact same headlights you installed on the video. Thanks
Ok. I thought I was losing my mind. I had these same lights on my 73 nova. I couldn’t get the halos or turn signals to work. I was thinking maybe I needed a led flasher relay.
Hello Shark. I also was confused and had bought a relay pack when I got these as I assumed I’d have to set something up to make them do that. I actually found out by accident while making temp hookups that the relay was built in.
@@McSpeedAlaskanAdventures oh crap. Well maybe i just need to change my relays because nothing worked. I just picked up led ones but i guess i should use the regular
@@McSpeedAlaskanAdventures update. I just replaced my stick flasher and now i think im good. B4 i wasnt even able to get my stock lights to flash. Thanks
I spliced in right where the socket connects from the factory harness to the front blinker harness. I then made a T of that wire to feed the headlight and the halo that I installed in the blinker housing.
Hey also, I see you have a 60mm and a 80mm halo in the description. I want it to have the halo o ring like the headlights we both now have. Do I need to get both?
If you want to led the parking lights then you’ll need a set for them. I think the 60 is what I got in the inside of them. The 80 almost fits the outside and would have looked cooler but the radius in it makes the larger ring not fit well.
@@McSpeedAlaskanAdventures Alright. Thank you so much Mcspeed1. I guess ill go with the 60s lol, i dont want any leds on the outside of the lens if im reading what you said correctly. Thanks!
@@McSpeedAlaskanAdventureshey, I’m looking at the 60mm switchback angel eye looking one, it’s about $18 without tax, in the bulb socket do you have a halogen bulb? also when I turn the running lights on will I be able to see the hall with the regular park light turning on if I upgrade it to led as well?
@@McSpeedAlaskanAdventures I've been looking a dapper lighting but I really like the look of these. I just rewired my whole car and upgraded the fuse panel. Now it's time to replace all my bulbs to LEDs. Thanks again and beautiful car!
Like the Halo LEDs, going to have to check them out when get to that point.
Excellent Chris! Doing what you did here with your Camaro made a world of difference in my 78 beetle!
Is the process going to be similar if I have 4 headlights (high and low beams) my goal is to have 2 LED headlights replace needing all 4 and then to just put covers on the low beams I wouldn’t need anymore.
I think so. Should be the same process except more lights to tie in.

That works too. Keeping it simple keeps it reliable.
Great detailed video i wish more people would post videos like this
Thank you. I’m glad you found it useful. Hopefully I can get some others uploaded soon.
Can you wire front turn signals in the halo’s??
Yes. 👍
Looks awesome!! Can you list or link the headlight part number, please? I have a 68 that I would like to upgrade.
Here you go. 7 inch LED Headlight Amber White... www.amazon.com/dp/B086Y8HNSB?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Hi Chris. Great video, Walt got me interested in this. Gonna install turn/brake/tail lights in the bug. Doug
Awesome!!!!!!
Love the creativity bro nice build as well . Thanks for the video just gave me an upgrade project for my 69 camaro 😎😬

I don’t remember. Sorry. Best thing is to just get some test leads and check them. If you look close in my video you might see the colors when I tested them.
Doing the same thing on a 69 Nova, did you ever figure out how to get the halo to come on with the key switch ?
So in theory I can do as you did but if I wanted amber as day time running and the white a blinker , all I have to do is switch those wire connections you did ?
Yes. That should work.
Awesome video! Thank you!

@@MikeReaman okay. Hope it works. You will love all the extra light it makes. And they look super cool.
Help me on mine...same car but old school fuse box. Do you know how I can get the DRL to work as well as the blinker set up? What relays did you use?

@@Samoxican83 Autozone use to have it. Maybe still do??? If you keep standard bulbs in two of the lights the flasher isn’t needed.
Quick question, where do you have the halo for the park lights running to?
I have the white light part connected to the ignition
cool, what are those rims?
Intro prowlers custom color and the faux bolts added.

@@KhaiMahase I have an LED in the socket. But I have a regular incandescent tail light bulbs 💡 in the sockets so it keep the load on the flasher.
fantastic

Very good video ans awesome car
Thank you.
How’s the visibility at night?
It is excellent!
