The original harness has 5 connectors to the original headlight. The led strip isnt turning on because i dont have anything to connect that wire to. (See pic)
    Also the light seems very weak, what hid kid can i buy to make the lights bright bright?
    All help will be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Ok so you have your high beam,low beam,running-blinker and side marker.the small plug you pictured goes to the original side marker light and if it’s dim flip the plug around and the last plug is likely your headlight leveling motor plug which is no longer used so put some dielectric grease in it and tape it up!

    Triangle looking plug is for leveling motors. Of your spyders don’t have motors then it will remain loose

    Do you have a ballast? Or these HIDs?

    @Cgonz9584, haven't dealt with Spyder headlights, but if you want to independently hook your led bar up, go with a fuse tap. No splicing just wire them via fuse tap into your ignition fuse. You will have to add another fuse with it.

    Like I said Carlos,I have these exact lights on my truck and you definitely don’t need to splice or add fuse taps.tape the leveling motor plug off and plug in your high/low beams and your running/blinker light and all that is left is to pull the bulb out of the socket of the side marker and plug in the spyder u barplug ,if it’s dim unplug it and flip it over!

    I had Spyders on my 2011 for a while, but they looked different. These are the ones I had:

    Spyder Auto 5012029 LED Halo Projector Headlights Black/Clear
    $301 Spyder Auto 5012029 LED Halo Projector Headlights Black/Clear
    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AAX14NI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_QeXtCbQ6YDP38

    I don’t remember what had to be done, but the led bar did require a new wire to be run. A friend of mine did it for me, but I don’t remember what it was he did. I eventually removed them, as they just plain stopped working after a couple of years.
