Another halo question how do i hook up the halos so that they come on, just when the battery is on, not when the engine is on? and what is this about people putting the lights in the oven...what does that do?

To hook up the halos to turn on when the car is on, youll have to find a wire that is hot with the ignition switched to "on".
The heat from the oven loosens the adhesive keeping the lense on so you can take the housing apart if you want to paint the inside for the whistler mod or change halo LED colors.

just use some of those connectors that have like a a splicer built in and get the hot wire from halo and hot wire from whatever you are gunna use and crimp it together. i have them hooked up to my driving lights b/c if you hook them up to your corners they will always be on and will burn out sooner than later

They are LEDs.... LEDs take a loooooong time to burn out.
