hello everyone.. my jdp halo kit should arrive tomorrow.. i went ahead and bought some leds to lightup behind the grill as well and since ill be removing the bumper for the halos might as well connect the strip of leds at the same time.. does anyone know how to connect them? i want them to be on just when the halos are on.. i want the halos to be turned on by a switch ao that i could leave them on if i wanted too when the car is off.. any suggestion ideas??

I installed the JDP halos myself and the package comes with a switch. This switch has 2 settings. One way will allow the halos to work off of the battery, like when the car is off but you want the halos on. The other way will allow the halos to be in "ignition mode" which allows them to turn on only when the car is started. I generally leave mine in ignition mode so I don't have to turn them on and off every time I get into the car. I do not know how to wire the grill lighting to work with the halos, sorry. I hop this answers some of your questions.

the JDP Kit comes with a whole setup and DVD for install. It will answer most of your questions. I'm just not sure how to wire the bar to the system.
