Car Forum / Honda Cars / August 2006jdm dual halo lights
I bought a pair of JDm dual halo lights for my 01 civic, for the most parts it is "plug and play", but in order to power the halo lights is says I need to connet the red wire to the positive node of the signal/parking light and the black wire to the negative. I know which wire are which but I can't seem to figure out how to connect them. The only thing i can think of is cutting the wires before the connector and slpicing the all of them togeather. Any suggestions?? Also the turn signal light is white and the housing is clear, not amber. Is it illegal to have a turn signal light thats not amber? > I bought a pair of JDm dual halo lights for my 01 civic, for the most > parts it is "plug and play", but in order to power the halo lights is [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > only thing i can think of is cutting the wires before the connector and > slpicing the all of them togeather. Any suggestions?? Scotchlok connectors, barrel crimp connectors, soldered connection, all kinds. > Also the turn signal light is white and the housing is clear, not > amber. Is it illegal to have a turn signal light thats not amber? According to the US federal MVSS 108, yes. But that ceases to be of issue once the car is past customs or is past the point of initial sale. According to your state's codes, maybe not. What state are you in? Some explicitly mention it, some do not.

I live in NY Then look at this: http://www.nydmv.state.ny.us/broch/c-50.htm I checked here: http://www.nydmv.state.ny.us/forms.htm and found this PDF of the inspection regulations themselves: http://www.nydmv.state.ny.us/forms/cr79.pdf Looks like section 79.21(e)(2)(b) might make your lamps illegal if NY requires side reflectors for your year. You'd have to dig up the relevant state Motor Vehicle Safety Standard to find out if NY state regulations require side reflectors. Chances are they do. A local inspection station surely would have a copy of the MVSS in question. SignatureTeGGeR® The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/ |
