you bought headlights with the angel eyes already in? no directions? are there ballasts?

Sounds to me like you need to tap into a 12v source.

Whitewhip, I was in the same boat as you are, buying AE without instructions on wiring. I sent zulu95 (i.e. Paul) some PM and received precious information from him. Not wanting to have park light on when AE is on, I eventually plug the power source into ECU as recommended by iop9000 in this link:

Here is the end result:


I really appreciated Paul's help and iop9000's pictures.
