Charger-style headlights and Halo's/LED sidemarkers/HID fogs INSTALLED!

After two months of waiting to install my headlight after getting them back from AAC I finally installed them along with other mods for lighting that I got (that's why I waited so long to install so I had all the parts to put on together). I'll be doing a write-up with more pics on my HID kit for the fogs later this week that I got from Xenondepot.com. It took time but really it was very simple and I'm not that great with lots of wires everywhere but it was super easy to install so look out for that later this week. Anyone ever seen these LED sidemarkers before??? I've had my eye on them for a while and took the plunge and got them and had to modify them a teensy bit so they could plug into the 194 socket. But they work and look good IMO. Enjoy the pics! (more to follow later this week with better night shots).

I like those LED sidemarkers. What type of modification did you ahve to do to get them to fit the 194 socket?

Looks great overall!

they fit in the sidemarker lens socket, but are advertised to be turn signals and the LED's are built in. need to splice into stock wiring to make work.

Actually they come with a red positive and black ground wire coming out the backside and that's it. SO, from Ebay I got one of those trunk lights that have LED's in a grid pattern that had wires hooked up to a 194 socket. Snip snip, splice, wrap up in elec. tape and plug it in the socket. One side didn't light up so I turned the connector 180 degrees (for polarity) and it lit up. I haven't tinted them yet but I don't know if I want too. I have I pre-cut light smoke tint film ready to go for them but I'm trying to decide. What do you guys think???

The pic shows them as lighting up as turn signals but there are only two wires out the back and as far as what I read on these forums, you need three wires, plus, the 194 bulb or even 194 LED is not a dual circuit bulb and I read you run the risk of ruining them if you try to wire them to be turn signal markers (read it in another thread), you overload them or something. Any truth to that? Seems to make sense to me.

Thanks! I wrote about the modification necessary and if you look at the second pic you can see the wiring to the 194 socket plug. Piece of cake if you ask me and I'm no wiz with wiring!
