Ok so i just made my angel eyes WOOT. and i want to wire it up so i can just have the angel eyes on, or have the angels and headlight. To do this do i need a 3 way switch? Like the off for everythign off, then the middle for angels, and the last switch for both? I know i will need to cut my wire for the running lamp so the light doesnt go on when i start the bike. has anyone done this or have input let me know!! thanks

i would not think you need to cut any head light wires. just wire the remote line from the angels eyes to the middle of a 3 way switch, then the power to a continous source(battery) then ground to your frame some where. then just run the power and ground to the battery or another alternant soucre that has continuous power since you want to be able to use them with the lights on or off

yeah but i want the angel eyes to be running even if the bike is on, so i can use them as running lights
like just driving with the angels on, no headlights

ooh ok i see what you are saying but im not to sure bout that...my best thought would be to just put a seperate switch on the headlights as well

Either have two switches one angel eyes and one headlights, or run the headlight power to the middle of the three way, put the angel eyes on one side and headlight and angel eyes on the other side.You will need to use a diode to keep the headlight power from backfeeding to the other side of the switch.

yeah that makes sense, how much do diodes cost? and what wattage diode would i need? would it be a zener diode?
