KIWI Master 9" JL LED LIghts

Does this really need a 20A fuse, or would 10A suffice?

Just for the halos? it would suffice.

Thanks man. All I have one me is 10A and don't feel like going to the store

How did you wire up the DRL..did you just tie them together then on up to the add-a-fuse then to fuse 57?

Same question. I wouldn’t see why this wouldn’t work to tie them together. My only question is obviously if they are run off fuse 57 they will always be on as long as the ignition is on correct? No way to turn the light completely off unless they are tapped Into the fender DRL?

Just got my Kiwi 9" today via Amazon. Installed and tied both the left and the right into one wire then ran it to the fuse box and tapped into fuse 58. Everything went smoothly and the Halo's do look great. I also have to say that the adjustable screws they put do help a lot to adjust. I"ll have to wait till evening to do this but I can see that you can move the light fairly easily by adjusting the spring loaded screw. Excuse a couple pics with the plastic still on the headlight.

I did the exact same thing that @Arterius2 did. A few things to note here:

1. There is no instructions (Not that you will need them if you just read mine and @Arterius2 thread here.)

2. The lights are plug and play.

3. daisy chainl the left and right DRL wire (the red wire that is by itself on the back of the lights) and then wire them to a add-a-fuse and use #57.

4. You shouldn't have to flash them to get to work since the Jeep does not know if they are LED or not. I have a tazer and just configured it for LED anyway. Again, you shouldn't have to.


NOTE: Fuse #57 already has a fuse in it. However, it is for heated driver seat, which I do not have/want. I just popped that fuse out, and put in my add-a-fuse. This is key since this fuse slot is already wired into the battery.

DOUBLE NOTE: You must use the add-a-fuse from Amazon. I tried 2 different add-a-fuse from NAPA and AutoZone and they do not fit in the jeep fuse box.

I took these pictures in the day (not that it illustrates how bright these are), but they are super bright for LED halos! I am very happy as the cut off lights are VERY crisp

Looking good^^^
Even if you have heated seats you can still use #57, just use the heated seat fuse in the main tap slot and the halo/drl in the extra slot, the add-a fuse instructions will say which slot is the "extra" one.

Awesome information

 

[JLGuyFTLD]

However I’m so confused with any of this splicing information with fuses and 57 or 58 and then the heated seats… And then add a fuse my goodness I feel so lost reading this thread LOL do any of you live near Fort Lauderdale to just come over and do it for me I’ll pay you LOL

LOL no no...Let me further explain.

1. there is a red wire coming from both headlights (THis is for DRL). Just wire these up (you will need some wire from lowes, or hardware story, probably 14-16 gauge). Once you them them together, run the remaining wire up to the fuse box and crimp it to the add-a-fuse from amazon. Once that is done, take out fuse 57, then add your new fuse you just wired up.

P.s. if you dont have heated seats, you wont have to worry about it. Just take out the fuse, and put the add-a-fuse in its place.

i dont have heated seats! however, cant i just plug and play and not worry about the DLR? WONT these work as normal regardless? also thanks for all your help and information

 

[Scarr2k]

You could I guess. I used a fuse Tao for #57. If you don’t connect the power wire the halo will not work, which for me was the point of buying. Good luck.

Nope, you gotta get those red wires coming from the headlights up to the fuse box. Those are the DRL's.
