Question Help....need help with HID connection.

I purchased a philips HID kit from autolamps-online and I have figured out how to connect most of it, but I'm still having problems. I've done the search and I've even viewed the video that is posted, but I still can't be 100% sure where to connect the black and red wire that runs from the relay. Where and what exactly do the black and the red wire connect to? thanks in advance for any information that you can give me.

like i said in the pm, the red wire you should connect it to power, so you should connect it to the positive terminal of the battery. for the black wire, connect it to a bolt on the car that's connected to the metal body and you are fine

Good luck dude....Is Autolamps' wire setup similar to Discountcycle's? I'd be interested to see any pics of the wire setup....just curious.

Im sure the logic is identical to hooking these things up. If you got any questions or problems....just ask Rominl. LOL!!!

Post some pics of the HID harness - the members on this board will be able to help you out better once they can see the wiring.

Oh and while you are at it, post pics of bulbs and ballasts if you can. I want to see if I got a good HID kit. Autolamps is supposed to be the best but I didn't want to pay too much for my HIDs.
