    i dont know about them at all, but can you just bolt them on?..and then run a wire from one of your turn signals to them?..iono what they look like, or how they need to be wired...but it shouldnt be too difficlut

      Im pretty sure that this is a repost, because I've posted this info before.

      But anyways, heres the instructions:
      Blue on the harness goes to the Parking Lamp(+)
      White=Blinker bulb(+)
      Black=Ground

      Then just plug the new M3 harness to the factory harness...and that should be all the wiring required.

          Yea I installed a pair on my car a long time ago. When I wired mine up, I just ran the wires straight to the headlight housings, then wired up the blinker and running bulbs(+) to the M3 harness. It was alot easier for me just to run some extra wire straight to the bulbs rather than trying to find those two specific wires from all the others, and plus you can run the wires inside of the fender so you cant see them.

              Dont remove the fender, fish a wire through it with a glowrod.

              there should be an opening straight through

              (glowrod is a green bendable rod with a hole at the end)

                  just tape the wires to an old metal coat hanger....kinda bend it to the shape it is a straight through shot so its cake man.good luck.

                    Theres no need to remove the fender...what I was referring to in this was is to:

                    Remove the 3-5 bolts on top of the fender(under the edge of the hood), then you should have enough room to slip the wires inside the fender...then just reinstall the bolts. That simple.
