Take the turn signal/ running lights off, take the longer of the 2 amber bulbs, cut the electrical tape, find the 3 wires, a green a brown and a black... Black is the ground or (-) and the green is major wich means its the turn signal, brown is minor, minor is for the amber running lights, cut strip and tie together...takes about 5 minutes.... Although I'm having an issue with the fact that 1) am not satisfied with the silverstar ultra... 2) the bulb isn't focused out of the projector housing..... SOO any ideas why? They also sell the same headlights with a reflector instead of projector. Wish I woulda got those instead. Unless I get the bulb to focus thru the projector lens..any ideas??

I actually drifted across a highway in the rain because I accidentally turned just a little too fast at an intersection (probably about 40mph) to keep up with my buddy before the turning light turned red. It was stupid on my part.

It's good to know that my Jeep skidded along and didn't roll, even with 6.5 inches of lift, otherwise I would have been a sad, sad person.

Yep, that's what I did to my Cherokee today. Because racejeep.
