Is sending in your headlights to Umnitza not an option? I think I read somewhere that someone had sent in their headlights and they fixed it there. Not sure though, might be best to double check with them.

I just got Umnitza Predator ORION V2 Opaque LED angel eyes. I am changing from CCFL lights, which haven't worked in years. I had an installer do the CCFL lights, but I really want to do these myself. I began removing the CCFL lights today. I traced the wires and removed them as I went along. Basically, the passenger side box (ballast???) had a wire going under the intake duct. It then met up with the box (ballast???) for the driver side angel eyes. Then, a wire (or one for each?) went to the fuse box. This is where I am confused. It appears to enter the fuse box as only 2 wires, but on the other end it is about 4 (I haven't unwrapped electrical tape from anything yet). Then it looks like one part of that wire bundle goes into an in-line 5 (amp?) breaker, and then to another bunch of wires (haven't removed tape). The other wire goes down under the fuse box into what I think is the cabin of the car. I know I am not specific here. I'll probably have to take some pictures. I was just wondering if anyone knew what type of install this was. There aren't any wires connected to battery terminals, etc. There is also no hole punched in the grommet to the passenger footwell light. Was this a different procedure for the CCFL lights that I can't replicate for the LEDs? Back when the lights worked, they faded in and out with the remote and stayed on with the headlights or even just the fogs.
