Default Front bumper sidemarker LED installation???

I bought sidemarker LEDs from delsa motorsports a while back. I need help on how to put them on. How would I go about connecting the wires? Anyone know where I can get instructions on how to install? Couldn't find DIY instructions.

I put mine in using blade connectors. That way, when you pull the bumper off, you can disconnect.
As far as connecting, I just followed the wires to the turn signal in the headlights and connected to them. The same would be true for a parking light connection.

I know clear corners makes some that will glow white with the parking lights and blink amber with the signals, are there anymore companies that do it that way or is one or the other usually?

Install the reflector, splice into either the turn signal bulb or the parking light bulb.

I just researched a sh*tload about LED's, and I'm gonna be building my own. Glow white for running lights and blink in amber for the turn signal.

Passenger side reflecter screws are a pain to remove, are up against the windsheild wiper bottle , need real short philips screwdriver to loosen the two screws and also remove the fender bumper screws to help get to them ..
