Exclamation Headlights



I installed some new headlights today, but they don't have that beautiful glow when I turn on the engine. Am I missing something???? They only come on when I turn on the lights.

Any thoughts?


Thanks!

Did you old headlights have city lights? you could modify the new ones and add an LED into the high beam and just tap into the corner light wire just like if you added angel eyes.
