Need Help: Angel Eyes wiring

Hi all,

I bought a full set of headlight with Angel Eyes (was suppose to be Projector53), but it came without ANY instruction on install, and the information given by the dealer on email are confusing.

So I was wondering if anyone know where these connector from this harness on this photo should be attached to?

Name:  Projector53.jpg

I've got the High and Low beam (HID) working fine. That was pretty straight forward, plug n play. And I would like the Angel Eyes to be switched on when light switch is at position 1 (either manual or auto)

I initially thought this was it, but wire 5, 6, 7, 8 are different than the one I have (5,7=D and 6,8=E ? ) and wire E is on mine is much shorter, 1 foot only.

I'm not an engineer or mechanic, but am ok with screw drivers and simple stuff. I just need to know exactly where I should connect things to.

Thanks in advance.

I thought many have installed AE here?

I've searched everywhere in this forum but found one that match the cable above.

I'm mostly uncertain on where I should connect / tap "D" to.?!

ANY advice will be greatly appreciated.

Cheers.

Thank you guys. This helps a lot.

The headlights are suppose to be the "Projector 53"

i think E should be connected to the ballast, because in my case they connected to low beam and it took me 2 days to figure it out. check it out if the vendor mistakenly plug it to low beams. good luck.

Thanks Franc. But the supplier is telling me that the connectors on E should be cut off and just wire them to the Angel eyes

BTW, I just installed the same tail lights as yours. They look great
