    My brother, you broke this shit down exactly how I needed to see it.
    You saved me hundreds of$$$$
    The frustration I had trying to figure this out is now gone.

    It's crazy I can pull a motor apart and rebuild with easy on my mustang. But zero knowledge on lighting. I like the advice with silicone. I'm going to be opening my headlamp assembly on my 12 mustang and add a strip towards the bottom. Thanks for video

    Thank you for the video. Here's a small tip: the pins at the end of the wires are supposed to be pushed into the appropriate holes in the back of the headlight connector. In that case, you won't need the wire-tapping clips.

    so you put the small balck wire in the Negative black wire at the back , The yellow wire goes two where you sais you found the 12 volt is that the top second or third slots from the top, my question is where did you put the RED WIRE, YOU MOVED TO FAST, could not get a properly look at that. any help would be appreciated. cheers Hans in the UK.

    • @WintersReviews
      @WintersReviews  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I didn't consider that in my install but your car battery voltage will typically run at 13.5 to 14.5 volts.

    • @WintersReviews
      @WintersReviews  ปีที่แล้ว

      You can only wire the turn signal. Just skip the step to wire the white led lights. I would cut the wire short and put electrical tape on the end.

  • @liamswan1351

    Is there a way to attach them inside the headlight itself?

    • @WintersReviews
      @WintersReviews  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm sure you could but it would be pretty involved. You'd have to take apart the headlight housing and make sure to seal it back up.

      Don't wire the DRL then. Just cap or tape the wire for that so it doesn't make contact with other conductors

    • @WintersReviews
      @WintersReviews  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hey I'm sorry for the late response. I think they are visible enough in the daytime. The way I installed mine, they are more visible than the turn signals in the actual headlights.

  • @eden20111
    @eden20111 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    10:20 I noticed your strip comes with a control box… mine didn’t come with the control box and the guy said it didn’t need one… what does the control box do?

    • @WintersReviews
      @WintersReviews  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think the box regulates the power flow so your turn signal doesn't end up blinking really fast or something like that.

    • @WintersReviews

      Definitely test yours before finishing the install to make sure they work right

      I don't think you really need different size ones as long as they aren't too big. If they are too big they won't make a solid connection.

    • @WintersReviews
      @WintersReviews  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, you will just choose what you want to wire them to. You can tap them into the main headlights so they are on when the headlights are on. Or if you have fog lights, you can wire them into those. Or you can just use the turn signals

      They don't drain the battery bc they only go on when the car is on (and the battery is being charged). That's why it's so key to connect them to the correct wires.
