Check the relay box under the hood (passenger side). There is a wire in there. I believe it's red/yellow. VERIFY THAT FIRST though. I have my halos triggered by the interior lights, and then the relay switches over to +12v from under hood input upon starting the vehicle.

Keep in mind mine is an LCI (04-06) model, but I think that wire should be present on earlier versions too.
