HOW TO: Install LED side marker lights, on your HUMMER H3!

[@Atlas.X9X]

Cool, I was thinking of getting these too. Thanks for sharing. I like your H3 content.

Thx man!

Those are really cool marker lights 🤓 I'll definitely be checking those out. Thanks, Ed!

Hey, I'm trying to install these lights but don't understand how to connect the white wire to the DRL. Do you have any insight?

[@edsgarage2.0]

I decided not to use the drl circuit, but instead found a 12+ key switched source and just tapped into it with the white wire. That way regardless of what was happening with the headlights, as long as the truck was on, the lights were on.

[@DSpicyArt]

Question, We have it all wire up, trying to use a "Mini Add-A-Circuit holder" what fuse # did you plug into? Everyone we have tried is either hot all the time with the key off or it's got nothing. We have tried #50, #60 (empty) all hot. #10 SPO, rear wiper, nothing. What Are we doing wrong?

[@kennethchandler87]

​@@DSpicyArthe will never specifically address that question or give an updated video to this issue most have been inquiring about.

[@njmaniaci]

Crap led lights though. Got mine 2021..both sides have burnt out lights now. So here I am swapping them out. Going with smoked factory style housings and using led bulbs. Pretty sure you don't have to tape them. They insert into the housing and you turn them to lock the socket in place.

[@edsgarage2.0]

Yeah mine are a little screwed too lol

[@allenpatterson4131]

Where did you get your headlights and mounts for them.

[@edsgarage2.0]

I butchered my existing headlights to make the mounts. But you can get mounts from "lased designs" online. Or have someone 3d print you a set. I got the lights on Amazon. Look up "ovotor" Jeep lights

[@scottlavoie5405]

Thanks for the video

Thanks for the comment!

[@paulmartin769]

Can you link where you got those lights? Actually all of them. I have all stock lights. Would love to update them. Great video

[@paulmartin769]

I just found the sidemarkers on ebay. Still interested in the other lights. I see lots online but I like seeing them on a vehicle. Never know what the world of ebay is selling lol

[@edsgarage2.0]

Got the marker lights on AliExpress and the rest I found on Amazon.

[@paulmartin769]

@@edsgarage2.0 Thank, you!!

[@unlike_cole5591]

Are they supposed to blink amber color with turn signal? Or they just stay solid amber all time? I just got them too

[@edsgarage001]

You can choose... Just piggy back to wiring off of whatever source you want.

[@unlike_cole5591]

@@edsgarage001 that gives me an idea i could do both maybe with another wire, 1 to day runners an another with turn signal 🤔

[@johnnyunderhil5129]

I just bought the same ones but I have no idea where to hook up the white wire to. I know you said DRL lead but I have no idea where that is

[@edsgarage2.0]

Find pretty much any switched 12v source, and piggyback off of it. These are extremely low power

[@jeffkraus1457]

Aren't there 2 clips on the backside of the light assembly? How hard is it to unclip the assembly? Not much room in there.

[@edsgarage2.0]

If I remember correctly, I managed to get some needle nose pliers up there

[@digitors]

If I add underchasis or wheelwell lights do you suggest connect to same DRL source?

[@edsgarage2.0]

You could... But I'd think it would be cooler to run a switch.

[@RJL612]

Dude why didn't you twist the socket back in instead of taping it? Plenty of room

[@RJL612]

Now you run the risk of getting water inside on the circuit board.

[@edsgarage001]

What he said

[@gunnerkrejci1442]

What color wire did you splice into?

[@edsgarage2.0]

It doesn't matter. My headlights are custom. Yours will be different, trust me. But if you've got aftermarket jeep style headlight assembly, then it's the same wire that comes off the headlight assembly harness separately from the plug, and usually that's red.

[@edsgarage2.0]

You need to use a multimeter and find the lead for your daytime running lights. Or find a 12v switched source. I'd recommend using a "tap in fuse adapter" in your fuse box if you can't find the right wire.

[@gunnerkrejci1442]

You would’ve saved my drl lights if I could’ve waited a few hours lol. Just fried the harness with my power probe, no fuse popped but I lost my drl and park lights, however I still have left/right blinkers. Wish me luck, this is gonna be a hell of a project now, haha.

[@edsgarage2.0]

@@gunnerkrejci1442 oh man ... That blows dude lol

[@IamFreeRu]

Looks cool. But, it's gonna look like crap when one of the LEDs goes out.

[@edsgarage2.0]

Meh... They're cheap

[@deplorable_pureblood_patri7704]

I have a much faster and much easier way that I just discovered tonight while doing my own. Find a plastic prying tool. Use the prying tool to create a gap between the marker light and the body. Use a flat head screw driver to disengage the clips in that gap. You’ll have the marker light removed and the new one installed on both sides in under five minutes. Good luck.

[@edsgarage2.0]

Interesting
