I'm trying to install a new set of driving lights on my 2000 GP and although I've added several aftermarket items in the past, this is my first try at anything with the electrical/wiring of any kind I've ever attempted so please be kind in answering what I'm sure will seem like a very simplistic question but everyone has gone through the trial and error process during there first attempts at doing something so here it goes...I'm not sure why but the majority of the lighting kits sold on Ebay which is where I found these do not come with an instruction manual and based on what I've heard from other members, that's not uncommon but it's certainly another hurdle to overcome when you've never done this before. There was only one wire coming from of the back of each driving light, one positive and the other negative so after mounting the lights, I connected each wire directly to the positive and negative terminals of the battery and both lights turned on immediately which was great except the car was turned off with no key in the ignition which even I knew wasn't right because there suppose to turn on and off with the headlights right? Anyway, I turned the car on trying several variations trying to get them to work in conjunction with the headlights and eventually had to pull the fuse because now the driving lights won't shut off even when the car is turned off and parked. I'm sure this is a rookie mistake from someone in process of trying to learn how to do this stuff but would appreciate any feedback you could give me on where I went wrong breaking it down in the most simplistic terms you can please because evidentially, I'm not smarter than a first grader!!! Thanks.
