Here's that wire tap in fuse 57, ran wiring as shown and going down the side and zip tied to one of those large cables keeps it down and allows the fuse box lid to securely lock down.

What does the wiring look like on the headlight assembly side? My Oracle lights have a plug plus an Acc + and an Acc - set of wires as well. Where are those connected?

I just completed this exact project yesterday. I have a JL Sport, so no DRLs either. I wired them to a fuse tap feeding the heated seat fuse - F57 (you'll need a micro2 style to do this, not the mini size you show).

Using this fuse position the halos come one when the ignition is on, but not in the accessory position, which was my goal. Now that I'm done, I think I want to add a switch on the dash so I can turn them off completely if I want to. I don't have the Aux switches, so I'm going to likely put this in:

below / near the headlight control knob.

Overall, I'm very happy with the halos. They are a little blue-hued, but not annoyingly so.

Good luck!
Did you ever get this done? Would love to hear more.

Yes, I've been running with them for a while now. What part are you interested in hearing more about? The install was pretty straightforward. After you figure out how to wire through the passenger firewall grommet, it was pretty easy. I drilled a hole low on my dash under the headlight control for the toggle switch. I'll try to take some pictures and post them. Let me know if you have any specific questions.

Did you ever wire yours up? Looking at doing this myself
I had it done at Jeep dealership in Sterling. Pretty sure it was their first install ever and they F*ed up some wiring the blew up the battery and bunch of other stuff. Long story short, it turned out great but I was without the car for a week while they were fixing it :)
