I'm confused. The rings connect to one box. The box has 4 plugs. U r only using three of those plugs.

Large rings are on one box(4 connections) smaller with 2 connections. How do I put a large and small ring on one box has 2 connections and I need 3 connections?

Yes I understand that...
So I have to run a long wire between the two boxes? I can't have a small and large ring in on box per headlight. I'm missing a connection

Sorry, I didnt' realize one of the boxes only had two plugs on yours. Umnitza seems like they gave you the wrong parts. :thumbsdown: Contact them ASAP to get the right box.


Btw, did you get double sided tape for your angel eyes? I didn't! I had to use my glue gun to hold it in.

hey mike, you should paint the top part of the ring black so it isn't as visible when installed, i'm referring to the ring with the umnitza logo. that's what i told them to do.. good luck looking good so far
