yes i do plan to run 100% full bright. is this the same on the ISF?
yeah, the second pic, that the LED 3 wires harness there, so you just cut the green wire on both lights and run them together to the ING2 fuse box which is locate in the engine bay, but make sure you buy the add on fuse line for that, I made the thread while back, let me check

the ATM 10A fuse and add a line fuse circut could be found at advance auto part or autozone, if you plan to do 100% bright only that all you need, and the long 18g wire so you can run from the passenger light to driver light, and wire two lights together, good luck

OK...

Problem 1 - use a tiny mini screwdriver and release the tab from inside part of the harness... Then the green wire will pull out easily from the back side....

Problem 2 - Blinker relay ?? If yes, you need to buy the proper oem part# mentioned in this thread...

Problem 3 - Yes you need that dome shaped cover with integrated wire and connector in order for the LED's to function.. And to seal that area..
You do not have this cover on your current lamps. And yes, you can only use the proper oem cap for that..

sorry for the late reply, yeah you need two new ATM type fuse, they are little bigger than our stock fuse, but have to been in 10A fuse, and must be two fuses for two slots there

You seem to be set. Question for you both, why the relays? Are you trying to have them turn on at all times?

yeah, basically everytime the car turns on, it will be on. not sure how the led will work in the long run but for now, that seems to be the way i want to do it.
