Hi Jason,

I have one questions regarding the fuse to which one should connect the blue cable. According to OSRAM's manual it should go onto the Ignition, but you mentioned ( and linked it ) to Fuse 45, which according to the manual is the cigar lighter. There is F15 which is the "Starter motor" ( not sure if that = Ignition ) but the rating is difference ( F45 =15; F15=40 ).

Is it the same number in your car ? Could that affect anything ? I see in your video that your lights work perfectly, so I assume that's not an issue; but just to be sure.

Thanks as always for your help Thumbs Up

You can put it to any fuse that you think as ignition live, you will know if it is right because the led's will tune off about 5 seconds after removing the key.
I've never had a problem from fuse 45.
What it means is it needs power from something that only comes on when the car starts. I.E. Cig lighter, Windows, aircon.
Plus 15 amp should be more than enough incase there is a power spike.
It doesn't tell us the wattage of the lights only the volts but let's say they are 50 watts per side =100 watts divide by 12 volts = 8.3 amps. So 15 amps on the cig lighter will do just fine I6 WITH GAS CONVERSION

Hi again Jadin,

I'm in the middle of my installation process. So far going great thanks to your tutorial!

I have just one question regarding the pin to connect the green cable to (left side indicator): you mention it's pin 8 as in the other side: does that mean that the wiring inside the lights is not simetrical? Just to confirm in both lights is pin 8 counting on the same direction.

Thanks again for your help
