Default Wiring a a Halo LED ring

Hey guys, I recently upgraded my 13 Softail's headlight and driving lights to Truck-Lite 7'' Round LED Headlamp & (2) Truck-Lite 80275 Passing / Aux Lamps.



The lamps were a easy install using the H4 connector but the main light stuck out about a inch from the chrome lamp ring. So I bought a Halo trim ring with LEDs from Kuryakyn which installs over the stock trim ring.




Problem is the new LED trim ring has two wires with spade connectors that need to connect some how into the H4. So after calling them they simply said to splice it into the existing wires. Question is I have a hot and a ground from the halo and three wires from the new LED headlamp. I don't know which of the three headlamp wires to splice into. Any suggestions?

Your headlamp harness should have White, Black & Yellow...connectivity should be:

- Yellow = Hi/Low
- White = Headlamp Power
- Black = Headlamp Ground

You'd tap into white & black...use "posi-tap" or in-line "snap-wire" splice.
