Question Help Wireing AAC Halos on 2010 LS

I bought some Blue Halos from AAC for my LS Camaro (I do not have fog lights), I installed the halos rings in the headlights but can't figure out how to connect them . I would like the halos to turn on when the headlights are on, the halos just have two wires power and ground.

I attached some pictures of all the wires near the front headlights.

The first picture is the AAC wireing diagram.

The second picture shows one of the side markers harness wires.

The third pictures is of the wires that go to the headlight harness.

The fourth picture is of the wires that go to the front turn signal harness.

Please I need to know which wires to tap into and how to tape into them. Thank you.

Tap the halo into the side marker light. Then it will function as the old halo did. Drivers side the power is purple and passenger side power is brown.

Ok, if you are trying to tap into parking lights you can go straight to the sidemarkers:

*Be sure the car and lights are OFF when you are working on the wiring.


1) Pull back the fender liner, you will need to loosen three #15 hex head screws.



2) Locate the Green Plug going into the Sidemarker. Lock a T-Tap around the + line (Pass side= Brown, Driver side= Purple) you can use pliers to snap into place.



3) Now plug the Connector into the T-Tap:

Thanks for the pictures, I have the whole front end removed right now. where should I connect the ground? I will go to the home depot to look for a t tap.

Tap the ground to the ground wire on the sidemarker. You can pick up t-taps at Radioshack, Autozone, etc.

Since you are tapping to the parking lights the Halos will be on whenever the parking lights are on, I would suggest to wire to a switch since you have blue.

Score one for remembering the wiring diagram off the top of my head.

Question

Connected the T-Tap, does it look like I wired it correctly?
