Default LED Halo Help!

I am installing LED headlights with Halo and it has a wiring harness for the Halo turn signal and the DRL. It has 2 yellow wires per side, one that goes to the turn signal and another one that is adjacent to the red and black wires that go to the battery; and it has the same type end. The diagram says it goes to the Headlight Vcc+.
I'm not sure where I connect it to allow the Halo DRL to work.
Any ideas?

See attachments.

Thanks

I found this...



It looks like it turns off the halos when the headlights go on if you want that...so headlight positive wire.

Here's the complete install...click me.

Ok. Thanks. I prefer the Halo stays on so I will probably skip that. Thanks a lot.

I've been thinking about getting halo ring lights. What brand are yours and where did you get them? Let us know what you think of them when installed.

Run the halo wire to an ignition-on source at the fusebox and use a fuse tap.

I connected my halos to the jeeps turn signal positive wire that is always on when the ignition is on.
The jeeps turn signal has two positive wires, one that pulses and the other that is always on.
The turn signal wire from the halos would go to the jeeps turn signal + wire that pulses.
You can easily find the jeeps positive wires by using a multi meter or a test light.

Halo's installed and working. I ended up tapping into the fuse box for power to the Halo's. Only using as DRL and I didn't use the Yellow Power Wire that turns the Halo's off when the headlights are on.

Not bad lights for 149.00 and free shipping. Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/371732355567

I tried taking pics with lights on but too bright to do in garage. Raining outside and too light for effects. But these lights are so much brighter than stock. I believe the Halos alone out does the stock lights, lol.

Thanks to all that helped.

Anyone have problems with the halos being white while on park, turning amber and staying amber while driving?

Nope. What did you tap where?

I tapped the yellow wire to the blinker positive. Everything works great, blinkers work on amber, it's just they stay amber while driving. I want white while driving.
