Please help me with wiring!

[ediot]

So I've purchased these from TRS
http://www.theretrofitsource.com/pro...ducts_id=14906

I was wondering if anybody can help me with some wiring.
Hoping to put these halos in soon but I'm just scared of the wiring business since this will be my first attempt.

I would ideally want to have it as part of my drl and night time driving lights.
Which wires will I need to tap into? and Is it safe to tap into DRL? would it throw off the voltage and result in damage?

I'm a complete noob at this.
All help is much appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

you can tap into the drl wire or you can run it from your fuse for drl. i like going with the fuse box because if something goes wrong all you have to do it check the fuse or ground. you dont have to worry about messing up the wires to your headlights. i use add a fuse, you can pick them up at your local autozone... link below

If I do this, would I only activate my halos when the DRL is running?
If i turn on to get my night lights will the halos turn off?

yes only when your drl are on will the halos be on. if you want them on while driving around at night time then you should tap into your parking lights or parking light fuse

Hmm so what if I wanted to have them on both during drl and at night?
how would i go about doing that?

best bet would be to wire to a switch and flip them on whenever u want them on

What I've seen some people do is, wire it to the parking lights and during the day, turn the stick 1 click to turn on the parking lights. I've considered doing this, but I realized that turning the parking lights on during the day dims the lights on all your radio/temp settings.

You can adjust the overall brightness of radio/temp screen....

I have 4 rings installed hooked up to the parking lights. I removed the DRL fuse and the rings only go on when I switch the light settings one turn. Then another for the auto on/off feature which will turn on the lows for me at night.
