Default LED lighting help

I have a halo kit for the Z emblem. I would like to wire it so it comes on with the running light but also blinks with the blinker. Possible with relays? if so can someone help me with wiring. Currently wired into the parking lights

thanks for your help

the two wire come out from your halo, do 1 to the possitive parking light, the other one connect to possitive of your turn signal bulbs. It should work!
POST SOME PICTURES, damn it! lol
I did not do this mod on my z but I did the same set up on my 02 accord AND my wife 06 RSX. But its a general technique so it should work on your z.
Good luck!

the halo has two wires, one red, one black. Are you saying I should tap off a line from the positive thats connected to the parking lights and run it to the positive of the blinker?

really? so does it use the other bulb for its grounding? How does get a ground when both positives are getting juice. i.e. city lights on and blinker light going?

no, u hook up the red wire to the green of your parking light

Then you hook the black wire from your halo to your whatever color of positive wire of your blinker.
