Alright so I was browsing worklogs and found these:
So, if I wanted to do that ^^^, what would I have to do with the LED ropes below in order to make it work. This means wiring mainly.
cheers.

Re: headlamp LED project
you could do 2 things (imo)
you can wire a separate switch connecting to a contant 12v wire, or you can try to wire......i'm an idiot (thinking so complicated), what you'll want to do (or can do) is just splice it to your DRL wire going to your turn signals, or you can attach it to your turn signals, the choice is yours
I could help you with it when i come over to help with the LED dome light project.
but be careful on how you attach the light strip as i see it peeling off in the future if you only use double sided tape or something

Re: headlamp LED project
haha yah please stop helping me so much... ...on the other hand, please continue
and maybe that should be the plan, I'm not such a great "wirer" so I think maybe if you helped me avoid wiring my lights to my horn that'd be super duper

Re: headlamp LED project
alright, i'm quite confident with soldering and whatnot so just figure out how your going to attach the LED strip (epoxy or something? unless you don't care re-taping) and i'll help you with this and all the other stuff we got planned when i get back to canada
