Hi Guys,

if its drawing enough current to blow the fuse right away, then its probably a short somewhere in the circuit.

check all the connectors and all the earth points

also possibly try replacing fuse with battery disconnected

Are the angel eyes a separate kit? In other words did you have to split the glass lense to fit them? most of these conversions wire straight into the original side light connections left and right and so use all the original loom/ relays / fuses. Firstly check that the new wires are not going to ground on the body work. Is there a separate relay with the light kit?

Sometimes the most obvious fault is a poor connection between old and new.

No you dont have to split the glass etc they came with plugs on the end of the red and black wires which had to be removed as the plug on the car was a diffrent type so both plugs were removed and wired directly into the original wires for the side lights ???
