|DIY| Installing COLOR CHANGING DRL Halo's Rings & Demon eyes on Challenger Hellcat (Diode Dynamics)

[@leonardrice2830]

The oven part! 😵 Interesting! 🤔 Definitely weather tight! 🤔

[@curt1star05]

lol. Still holding up to this day! No water leaks or moisture in headlights either!

[@jaydailydetailer]

I’m new to working on my own car. And sometimes it can feel intimidating, especially since it’s my daily. Thanks for the content to show us how to do it. *Insert home alone quote “I’m not afraid anymore.”

[@curt1star05]

That’s awesome news man. I’m glad I could help!!

[@Mr.Extraextraordinaire]

Nice install did the same for my 17 RT when i purchased it going to upgrade to a hellcat soon so i got to do this process all over again but I’ll seal it up with a cleaner look from watching what you used i just used the silicone to seal it entirely went through a couple of bottles lol

[@curt1star05]

That345YaHemi Thanks, it’s definitely easier and cleaner than silicone. I don’t think I’ll have leaking problems in the future. At least I pray not. 😂

[@2024CorvetteE-Ray]

I watched ALL of this, because I learned so much. Not just how to put my own in, but how to do lots of things. You are the man. I would do this because I like my regular white lights, however I do plan on doing white lights inside the bumper. Thank you sir

[@curt1star05]

Thank you for watching!

[@wtfcamob566]

I love the car bro. I’m about to get a hellcat Widebody myself it’s great to see you grinding keep the great content coming bro

[@curt1star05]

Bryan Harden Thank you bro! I wanna see that content when you get it.

[@stevem8871]

Nice job you worked hard miss the old days when you did not have to take the front end apart looks Sick!!

[@curt1star05]

Right!i have a led badge I want to install but dreading the bumper removal

[@2024CorvetteE-Ray]

Wifey probably not gonna like you messed up that mitten lol. You are doing this nicely!

[@curt1star05]

She'll never know about that mitten. Lol. Thank you sir!

[@HnicDaYoGD]

Took my car to a custom shop to get installed my middle light on the passenger side don’t work with the other lights meaning if i turn on Red that light would be yellow...My driver side has moisture that gets in.. I called them told them about the problem that keep giving me the fuckn run around.. i rather learn & do it myself.,than pay another shop $700 label work..........that’s why I’m here !

[@curt1star05]

Wow that sucks! Well I’m glad you stopped by. I’m actually putting together a part two of this video since I’ve gotten so much feedback from it. Hope it helps you complete yourself it definitely can be done!

[@Knightfallprotocol444]

Thank you so much for this video! I wanted these lights but the oracle ones are too damn expensive. These look amazing! I must have!

[@curt1star05]

Appreciate it!

[@b5beast611]

Nice work. They look great👍👍😎

[@mpeg24]

Very nice bro. Well done!

[@joedirtjr6299]

Do you have a link or video showing how to remove front bumper?

[@KennyLauderdale]

all in all... Good job man

[@2024CorvetteE-Ray]

So if you don't want to use them, I'm assuming you can just turn them off. Then you factory lights will just work as normal. I know you can change to white though, but turning them off would be great too. Thanks for doing this!

[@curt1star05]

Yes sir, you can turn them completely off as well. And you are disconnecting your factory lights so that these work just like the factory. You turn them to white and they operate just like factory. Turn on and off when you turn car on and off. They are awesome! I wired up another connector for when I want to use them straight from battery power (without the car being turned on) for car meets and other events. No regrets here!

[@curt1star05]

@Cody Calloway hook them to something that has power when the car comes on. I have my halo rings setup that way. I think they are wired to my parking lights

[@curt1star05]

Yes sir. My halos turn on and off with the car. I don’t have to ever do anything to them

[@curt1star05]

@Cody Calloway yep Bluetooth controller via app allows you to change them. Even turn on and off. So you will have control over them regardless. It's just that they won't come on without car being on if not hook up to straight 12v battery. So that's my preference to have my halos come on with the car and demon eyes come on whenever I want them on. I also have another harness hard wired to battery in case I want my halos to come on just like demon eyes (for car shows)

[@curt1star05]

@Cody Calloway I have part two video of installation dropping soon

[@Akron2PDX]

Dope I'ma buy this and pay a shop to install it lol I might burn the fucking headlights up knowing me

[@curt1star05]

😂 bet. I’m sure paying someone will be a whole lot cheaper than you burning the lights up.

[@esmeealvarez7]

Hey! Do we NEED an oven or do you think just a heat gun could do? Great look!

[@curt1star05]

I think the gun would work. But it will take more time

[@헬더스]

Looks great!

[@curt1star05]

Thanks!! Appreciate the love🙏🏽💪🏾

[@spike6722]

Hey man a dodge challenger hellcat is my favourite car I love your Content

[@curt1star05]

Thank you! Appreciate you for watching the videos

[@ronalddrew6791]

Did the kit come with both demon eyes and halo boards. Or separate. Great job btw on installing. Looks great

[@curt1star05]

They come separate. But the extra cost of demon eyes were not bad. I think an extra 70 bucks from what I remember.

[@sami4chicago]

Good job man 👍👍 But why you didn't wire them to the same old power supply?

[@curt1star05]

Sam Joseph I wanted them to operate a little different I’m actually working on part 2 explaining the wiring.

[@sami4chicago]

@@curt1star05 yes please can't wait I wanna replace my 2020 RT

[@curt1star05]

Gotcha! Stay tuned

[@KennyLauderdale]

20:03 I like those clamps

[@curt1star05]

Kenny Lauderdale yes sir! They work wonders!!!

[@creationberryYouth]

very nice video just which you showed the actual final install with the wiring setup. But thx much.

[@curt1star05]

Thank you! I actually just recorded a part two. Editing it now

[@senord7802]

Did you de pin the harness or cut the wires? I want to mine to run like stock I have demon eyes and DRL boards too.

[@curt1star05]

I cut the wires but left enough length to connect them back if I ever needed to.

[@rdh7942]

Dude your challenger is beautiful but to do all this just for Demon Eyes? My hands are not that good

[@curt1star05]

It’s a major mod that sets a car apart from the rest. I love the unique look so it was all worth it at the end! Thanks bro!

[@bradysmith3024]

Diode Dynamics has installers all over if you don't want to do it yourself.

[@dylanpipkin9571]

Does the headlights still work like normal with the demon eye? Like when they turn on automatically will they be like normal until you turn the demon eye on?

[@curt1star05]

Everything works just like stock. The way they are wired (as recommended) if the demon eyes are on and the headlight comes on, whether it automatically comes on or manually switched on, the demon eyes goes off and headlight overrides. It’s a ground wire connected to ensure you’re not burning the demon eye led while headlights are on. Hope that answers your question.

[@blkhemi3925]

Dodge didn't exactly make it easy, did they?😳

[@thehoodphilosopher8482]

icy as’l.. What’s the link to the Exact Setup?

[@curt1star05]

What do you mean? You can look up your car info on diode dynamics website.

[@FussellsGarage]

How did you do the demon eyes install? The rings are easy but what about the hid projector

[@curt1star05]

The hid projector part is easy as well. The hardest part is figuring out how to mount the demon eyes without blocking the flap that switches from high beam to low. I had to do minor modding to mount this. Cutting out a small part of the flap was my solution.

[@hectorrami]

Hey man wassup!! I’m trying this on my challenger aswell, what did u take out the headlight before putting them in the oven?

[@curt1star05]

Hector ramirez nothing at all. Put them in the oven without taking off of anything.

[@Roamir1000]

So where did you connect for power for demon eyes? Did you tap into low beam 12v? And ground it to where?

[@curt1star05]

Roamir actually I just ran power and ground straight from battery and bare metal. Because I wanted them to be on even when the car is not on.

[@Roamir1000]

BigBoyToys704! Thanks for the reply . 12v wire goes straight to the positive on the batter right? Thanks

[@curt1star05]

Roamir yes sir. Just make sure you have the other components in between as the directions state.

[@Сергей-с7х2в]

How come, when you car us running and you don't have your drl/amber lights on?

[@curt1star05]

I shut it off thru the menu. Since I have the custom diode dynamic lights.

[@Ldamian11]

Only question I have is do your turn signals still work??

[@curt1star05]

Yes sir! Turn signals work still

[@rexhall10]

I have them and can’t figure out to power them ONLY when the car is running

[@curt1star05]

Hook them up to something that comes on only when car comes on. Like parking lights.

[@jerz859]

Do you have a actual demon eye bulb or the halo light install made it look that way?

[@curt1star05]

I have both the Halo and a demon eye led installed. I can change the colors separately

[@r.pow815]

Did you have to use the dremel tool and cut the inside of the turn signal?

[@curt1star05]

I don’t recall that. No major cutting at all.

[@r.pow815]

Ok cool i got some lights from oracle and in the instruction video it says cut it i see you didn’t have to so i had to ask thanks

[@curt1star05]

No problem!

[@stebin]

@@r.pow815 that was my worry too, cause I bought the same kind from oracle. It looks like they use an o-ring for the headlight vent

[@96reddemon]

nice work

[@curt1star05]

Thank you so much! Glad you checked out the video

[@MaalyJay]

What did you use for the exit of the wires thru the backside of the headlight?

[@curt1star05]

I ran them out of the back of the headlight drilling a small hole and sealing them with the product shown and extra caulk to prevent moisture.

[@MaalyJay]

@@curt1star05 nice work brotha✊🏾💪🏾

Maaly Jay appreciate it!

[@Thekindergartenpunks]

hello there, I'm from germany. I've an R/T from 2018. So in Germany the Street laws are little bit harder. But I think I'm starting that illegal things soon and hope they won't catch me. But when I buy those things in America it will cost so much time and money that i have only one chance. So my question is... What can u say about the Lifetime after two years? Are those Lights good or is it better I buy some from Oracle? Sry for my bad english buddy. Hope u understood it :D

I’ve had them for two years now and they are all going strong brother! 💪🏽

@@curt1star05 wiring

[@curt1star05]

Tavarus Brooks it was pretty easy for me. Take a look back at the wiring diagram. Make sure you harness that is connected to power is getting a good source of ground and harness connected all the way (hard to snap in).

[@curt1star05]

Tavarus Brooks you may need a volt meter to ensure you have a good ground and have 12v on power

[@ricotheofficial]

Keep it real.... this look like a 48 hour job man ha.

[@curt1star05]

Metro Speed 704 It truly is a job. I won’t even lie. You didn’t even see the wiring to the car (which was fairly easy). But all worth saving the money in my opinion!

[@ricotheofficial]

Big Boy Toys!!! Everything seems (somewhat) easy. It’s just taking the front part that would freak me out. One good drop, hitting something sharp or losing a piece that holds the front part in place would make you go into a deep depression.

[@ricotheofficial]

Big Boy Toys!!! But I understand the cost and doing it yourself.
