I ran straight to the battery for power.

Yea... I guess I will have to do that too. I have a wireless 12v modules sitting at home I use for my diy aquarium led lights. Kinda weird that I have to click another button to turn it on. My module can also dim the leds so that's fun...

All wiring done, was hard to put the bumper back on. Tested direct connect to battery and it works nicely. Now I just need to find my wireless module.

Ahhhh, much nicer than I had anticipated. Good work.

How did you seal the back of the housing to prevent moisture getting into the headlight?

I used the black trim panel for the leds.

Very cool. Do you have any closeup shots of how the installation looks?
