I love running mine during the day also. Just think having something setup giving you options might be the better way to go. While limit yourself by hardwiring to only come on with headlights or daytime running lights?

I want them to come on only with the headlights cause I only use my park lights with my halos, so I was looking for these lights to only come on with the headlights instead of being on with the park lights

Ahhhh Gotcha...I normally run my Halos, Pod Lights and side markers all together. This also engages my afterburners. My Halos and ACS Pod lights are on the cup holder switches above allow me full control

MikeMoach · 04-06-2013, 12:12 PM

That's cool but I want to not have any switches in my car that's why I wanna connect the pods to the headlights with the sensor

CamaroI · 04-06-2013, 12:51 PM

I have just a few switches

This is my same setup with approx 16 switches from Halos-NOS bottle openers and purging

You can customize the buttons and also have lettering light up from underneath.

wow thats hot man, congrats

I have the factory fog ligh switch was gonna try and use that somehow since my fog lights got cut out for the ports.

Looks good but I'm not a fan of having all those switches in my car, that's why I would rather just wire the pod lights to the headlights and they will come on automatically with the sensor and if I want my halos on all I gotta do is put my park lights on

Does anyone know where I can tap into to do that?

Exactly.

Wired mine to my fog lifts harnesses now I can control them with the factory button and they work perfect!

Vader2011v6 · 04-08-2013, 09:28 PM

Mine is wired to a switch as well that I used to have my fog lights wired to.

Heres how mine looks

Frojas3440 · 05-16-2013, 01:42 PM

I have mine installed into a switch inside the cabin. They were working great for the first month then last week my gf told me that a light was flickering. So now the passenger side bottom led is flickering or off and the driver's side middle led is weak and not as bright as the other ones. What do you think can be the problem??? I checked behind the lights themselves but everything seems to be tight. I honestly havent checked the switch so may e it can stem from there???
