Excuse my ignorance but I am completely clueless when it comes to electricity and wiring. How would I install these in an 05 Hyundai Elantra? Thanks!

I am not sure about a Hyundai, I would try and research on YouTube, that is how I found video instructions for my Camaro. The instructions do come with how to install for normal usage, I wanted to have them come on like the dome light which is different from their set ups. And you can pay for a online mechanic service if you have a specific question that the installation instructions do not include. But once you find the type of set up you want you can also email the LED company and they will answer as well. I am not mechanical at all and was able to do it in about 4 hours, hard to reach places make it more difficult that's for sure.

It's not too hard.. look in your owners manual and find the fuse box. Hook them up to a power source. by pulling the fuse. Insert the end of the wire and put the fuse back in.

Every car is going to be slightly different, but i'd suggest youtubing how to pop off your 05 hyundia Elantra dashboard so you can get to your radio's wires. Simply splice (you can pick up splices at walmart or any hardware store) the black wire to the radios black wire, and the red to red! Hopefully this made sense and helped.

No because they run on just about the same current you might want to run them with your parking lamps which are located in the corner if you are connecting your running lights they might actually heat up and melt the plastic or blow a fuse my car came out clean the way I installed them which is running them with the corner lights

You can watch my video on youtube for the installation on my Kia Soul... search youtube for XMSMLL or Philips Daylight 8 - 2012 Kia Soul - Philips LED Daylight 8 Daytime Running Lights (DRL) DIY and you will see it on my channel... Basically the control module will tell you when you touch the correct wire a blue led will light up... then you connect to that wire... I know nothing about electricity be with the instructions I figured it out easily... Good Luck

they cone with plenty of wire to wire it up. and they work great, i love mine. You can also wire Them up to work as ruining lights and turn signals. I can put up a link to a how to i did if your interested

You can always wire them directly or if you are looking for the "plug and play" option, you may have to buy an adapter for your specific vehicle like I did for my Toyota.

I wish I knew..Since I am female.Don't know much about vehicles.I just went to google and typed in what we needed.Also, went to this site to install. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8ooXF8YLGI which was a great help.We did not use the wires that came with this one..We were able to use our old ones that was on truck.Great buy !! Video is great. I wish I could have been more help.

Greg, I have one of these on the front & I don't care a lick for it! Buy a bigger unit if you can! As far as wiring, I just made up a 2 strand wire harness & ran it along the inside edge of my deep v right down to the battery. I then split it & put a connecter for each post. It works like a charm! I'm no Guru when it comes to this kind of stuff either and I made it work. cbmgh@comcast.net if I cabn be of further assistance to you. CB

The bulbs do not actually use the "pins" for their power source.. You'll connect a lead from each bulb to your existing 12v wiring, bypassing any ballast or starter. There are very clear instructions included as well. Took me about 5 minutes to install total.

I noticed that too. I installed them and figured 50/50 chance - got them right on the first time. You can also install in a bucket to test with a voltmeter or some electrical device plugged into the socket to determine when power is there.

When they're clipped into my dome lights in my 2000 Subaru Forester, they work perfectly. and since you know they work when attached to 12VDC as well, the problem appears to be in the connection where the light socket exists. Either they're not seated correctly and only partially in contact (in which case you can reorient them until they're bright), or there is inconsistent/insufficient current getting to that socket in your car. You can verify whether the right amount of energy is getting to the dome light socket by using a multimeter. If you don't have one, you can attach wires to the socket's + and - nodes and connect them to the + and - ends of the bulb directly, and see if they power up. if they do, then you can be sure that there's simply a problem with how they're seated in the dome.

If you don't know anything about electronics, maybe this isn't for you. You can cause problems for your car if you do it wrong. What I did was to find the wires to the cigarette lighter and connected the red wire to it and ground the black wire.

no you don't ,i would go online and see if you can bring up the instruction booklet or even go to u tube and i remember a couple videos of people wiring them in. all i remember is it was easier than i hoped for and i am not good with electricity!

Yes this should work. The wiring instructions are in package. You can also use YouTube, to help you install this savers. Google is a great helper too.

To be honest this is the first I hear of this...the only bulbs that need anything extra are hid - bulbs they require a ballast... but not these they just plug into ur existing wire connectors just make sure ur car does take 9006 bulbs

I don't know because mine was not pre-wired. They fit in perfect, work perfect & look perfect. They had to be wired from the lights & a switch put in because mine was not prewired.

Hi;It is VERY important to have a professional installer instal this kind of item for you, one wrong wire and you can damage not only the item but also components of your car. Naturally we can also not give advice over an email or a forum.Ariya

These are for OEM non HIDs I believe, but far from plug and play. They require quite a bit of wiring.
