To customize your car with LED position lights known as "angel eyes," first check how many wires need to be connected. Perform a test with temporary connections to verify their proper functioning.

Next, determine how to route the wires using shared spaces with other wires until you reach the fuse box or the main relay, ensuring no visible wires are left in unsafe positions that could lead to short circuits or tears. Secure the LED lights in the headlight assemblies with double-sided tape, for example.

Route the wires for the electrical connection, completing the installation of the headlight assemblies. At this point, identify potential points along the route to connect the ground wire (negative) and the power wire (positive), always inserting a fuse with an additional fuse holder.

Now, locate the wire that carries voltage and connect the light wire using a splice connector.
