Default Headlight housing turning signal

I recently bought the housings for my xj and I also bought HIDs with them, but these housing have a turnsignal build into them, and I'm not to sure on how to wire them up with the normal turning Signals. Any tips?

Hey Austin, welcome to CF. Can you provide us the year, engine size, transmission, and transfer case info for your Jeep, please? They're not all the same. Also, green (or anything other than amber) front turn indicators are illegal in many states.

Please do not put a hid in that housing you will blind people on the road.To run hids right you need projector housings and the good ones are around 300 bucks.And the green on those housings are not turn signals they are just halo lights pretty much a extra light for looks only.Most just wire them in to their running lights.

X2. One positive and one negative for each side most likely.

Don't put HIDs in those, it's not safe, legal, or beneficial.
