Need help with 50 Watt DRL Led - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hi,

I purchased a 50 Watt LED conversion kit from ijdmjoy as well as the harness to keep them on when the headlights are on.

Not sure how to connect them or if they are just the wrong bulbs I received.

Here are the pictures of the bulbs and the 2 wires that came in the box. The LED bulb fits both wires however the other ends do not fit the car wire. One of the wires you can see there is a small round grey thing that has a place for 2 pins....Not sure what this is for.

LED Bulb:

Wire 1 with 2 connectors:

This is the second clip...Online I found a video that said to remove the wires from the clip (which I did) and then directly plug the wires to the car. I tried this but the wires have a metal pin which is too wide for the cars plug.

Wire 2 with 3 connectors:

This wire connects fine to the cars DRL wire:

This end of the wire does not connect to the new led bulb or the old car bulb:

If someone can assist me in wiring this up it would be much appreciated! I will of course call them tomorrow but just really want this installed today IF they are the correct wires/bulbs.

Thanks,
Vai

Send it back and ask for PSX26W base, that is what your car comes with on the OEM harness, you have H11 bulb they dont fit your DRL housing.

Ty! I'll call them today and hopefully get it sorted out. I even called them prior to placing my order and they gave me specific item numbers for it and confirmed that it would fit.... Guess another week or so of waiting...

They sent me the correct bulb but not sure how to wire it. If you take a look at the second to last picture, I'm supposed to use that cable to connect the bulb to the car and then that Blue piece is supposed to go to the side marker or turn signal?

Not sure but that harness is supposed to make it so that I can have all the lights on at the same time.

Anyone have any ideas on where that blue clip goes? I was told by the ijdmtoy rep that the grey round thing houses the side marker or turn signal bulb and then the blue clip goes into the housing of the side marker or turn signal....sorry if this is confusing but if you have any questions or need more clarity please let me know.

I'd like to wire this thing today but don't want to start without all the info.

Thanks!

That seems easy enough, pull off the housing for your side marker in the front, unplug the bulb from that cable and put the bulb from your side marker onto that gray housing, then put that gray housing in the hole on your side marker that you disconnected and plug the blue part in where your bulb used to go.

Right?

That's funny, your going to do it that way and what do you do when water gets in the side markers?
