I got the Junyan ones with the halos and LED's. Wire your halos to the parking lights instead, that way they light up without the lowbeams. Also there are probably screws you can use to adjust the projector beam left, right, up, and down. They might be a pain to reach and you might need a swivel 8mm or 10mm (i forget which) to turn them. If you dont have a straight cutoff line at the top of the light beam, you probably need to level them out. Just don't aim the beams too high. Then people will start flashing their brights at you every time you pass them b/c it'll basically be like shining a flashlight 1ft from their eyes (but if you're getting HID's I dunno if that bothers you). Oh and last thing, I hate to disappoint you but once you get your halos working, they might not last too long, and the cheapest replacements i found are 25 bucks...but you might be able to buy T10 connectors, cut off the original halo connectors, splice in the new T10's, and use any T10 194 LED (which you can find hundreds of on eBay, some as cheap as 99 cents a bulb). That's what I'm about to try. But the connectors are coming from Malaysia so I'll leave a post about that one in a few weeks lol. Anyway good luck. Whether the halos burn out or not, the projectors are certainly better looking, and well worth keeping.
I know you said you got the halo rings working for you but mine never worked. I guess I did a bad job because the splice popped off. I've one question though. If you hook up to the parking light which one is the power on the parking light?? There are two reds and one black and it doesn't seem to work with either red. Maybe I just did it wrong. I don't know.. But which of the two red ones is the power.. I know the black is ground.

my headlights seem to be set up a bit differently. my mechanic did the wiring for me, but looking at my headlights, the halos just have a black and a black/white wire coming out.

At least yours are color coded. Mine just has two red wires and I can't figure out if one is ground or both are power. I am going under the assumption that both are power and I tried it again but still no luck.. I got the splice right this time but no light up and now my parking lights are blown out too for some odd reason.
