any one installed squiter lights on there S13?

[MyFirst240SX]

I cant figure out how to wire it in.  Each lights has a + and - wire. then a switch with 2 prongs. its says the Negative should be the parking lamp wire.   i dont understand......

First you have to peel the backing paper away from the product...it should have a picture of a black man on it and say something like Uncle Ben's. &nbsp;

Naww..i'm just playin around. &nbsp;I'm trying to figure out how to help...but you didn't get very specific. &nbsp;Can you elaborate a little on the instructions or what the things look like? &nbsp;

[MyFirst240SX]

THe only thing the instrutions only say. &nbsp;:connect wires to parking lamps. &nbsp;and shows a picture of the Neg(ground i guess) and a line pointing to it that say parking lamp.
What if i wired them up to my Side marker wires...would that work ok?
I just like the way the little lights look at night on cars and it was something like 5 dollars so i said Why not. &nbsp;IS there something u see wrong with it.

[240sxspeedracer1]

hey, i think so lil lights r cool, im probably gonna buy them one day, i also agree that those things look cooll at night, if ur not sure how to install, im sure a friend could help, its pretty easy, but i dont want to give u info on something i never did.

[MyFirst240SX]

i feel dumb bc i know its simple. &nbsp;ive installed foglights on 2 of my freinds rides. &nbsp;but they came with full wire digragms and some real instructions. &nbsp;SO nobody on this forum has installed them?

[Impact]

I know the 2nd Gen Supras have it...its weird..i dont like

Sorry most people on this forum aren't ricers. &nbsp;Just run it straight from the battery that should make for some bright lights.

[MyFirst240SX]

i dont understand how to run them to a Switch if there is only 1 wires per light. &nbsp;So lights on my hood makes me rice eh?

[96SEChick]

I think it's kind of a neat idea--makes your car more noticable. &nbsp;But that's also the thing I don't like about them--I don't want my car that noticable at night. &nbsp;I also think it would be a little distracting--trying to concentrate on the road at night and see these little lights in front of you. &nbsp;Yeah, they're kinda ricey--I just remember the green lights on the Honduh's in F&amp;F. &nbsp;I see the squirter lights on cars here in Tulsa all the time, even Rustangs. &nbsp;They're kinda neat, but kinda cheesy looking.

Just my .02. &nbsp;If you like them, put them on. &nbsp;Nobody can tell you what to do with your own car.

[Nismos14]

whoa long time no see lauren


and what are the squirter lights? (never heard of them)

(Edited by Nismos14 at 12:15 pm on Feb. 24, 2002)

[MyFirst240SX]

You know those two window squiters that are located on your hood. &nbsp;i just bought new ones that have lil blue lights in them. &nbsp;I think combined with my bobbing head monkey i should have a 15hp gain.

[Nismos14]

lol naw man those gotta be at least 15 by themselves

[240racer]

myfirst240sx is not as rice as I thought he was in the begining of the post because he felt they give him 15hp, good job. &nbsp;However, I am going to have to admit that random blue lights are not helping if your purpose is to not be rice. &nbsp;Everybody has their own definition of what's rice and what's not, but those are definatly not &quot;not rice&quot; &nbsp;With that said let me see if I can help you out. &nbsp;Splice into the positive wire from the parking lights and run that to the + on the squirter. &nbsp;run a wire from the - to one of the prongs on the switch and run a wire from the other prong to the chassis, it doesn't matter which prong. &nbsp;So even though I don't recommend these lights at least I answered his question guys. &nbsp;give him a break.

no matter what you think, he likes them and critism isent going to make him dislike his lights, only us so gust leave him alone

im going to explain how to do this so you can switch them on and off whenever you want wich is better than to you parking lights

as for you question:
(you could be a rocket scientist but im going to treat you like a 3rd grader so there are no questions)
Things you need:
1. a spool of wire (same as the wire on the light)
2. crimping tool, with a variety of crimp connections
3. a power meter (i like to one that has a clip on one end and a long needle comming from a tube with a light on the other
4. a switch
you should be able to get all of this at an auto parts store, radio shack or similar

Step 1 - Ground
a.) &nbsp;strip (about 1/2 inch) and twist each neg wire and then twist together. &nbsp;
b.) &nbsp;Attach fork looking connection with crimping tool and make sure its tight.
c.) &nbsp;Connect to any ground in engine bay
d.) &nbsp;zip tie the wires to the washer fluid lines and then to whatever to go to ground (actually wait to you get the power wire in too)
NOTE: DONT leave slack in wire if it touches valve cover it will melt, and dont pinch fluid lines. &nbsp;

Step 2 - Power

a.) strip 1/2&quot; of sheathing off wire and twist end of each wire from nozzel
b.) twist both left and right together and attach to a long length of wire from spool (this will have to reach the console in the car) with end to end crimp connection
c.)feed wire to a hole in firewall (if you have an alarm there is one by the speaker or you can drill one there)
feed under dash ziptying as needed to the location you want the switch
d.) strip 1/2&quot; of wire and twist
e.) attach crimp connector that is square and locks to the bottom of the switch
NOTE: this is for the prong style connection, if there are two wires comming from the switch, connect with end crip connections
f.) drill hole where you want switch(i suggest a pop out peace made to put in switch) and screw nut down securely so switch stays in place
g.) attach wire comming from lights
h.) wind 12v power source with light tool by clipping the tool to a ground, and probing wires till it lights (do not use a radio wire, it will shut off with you radio) the cigarete lighter wires will be good
i.) splice into wire with a length of wire from spool
j.) repeat step &quot;e&quot;

Step 3 - Clean up
a.) snap peace with switch back into place
b.) replace dash parts you removed to get to power or to run wire
c.) zip tie any loose wires

Step 4 - Enjoyment
a.) swith on and off lights ans much as you want, whenever you want

hey look another rice boy bites the dust..... I am gonna buy an old muscle car clunker and wreck into every car I see with altezza's, supra spoilers, led exhaust, led washer squirters and rid the world of rice boys so we can live in peace with cars that look like they should.

thoes things are the next best thing to the real &quot;San Francisco treat&quot;

[EhMikE 90 240SX]

[wav399]

Oh no! &nbsp;Please No Squirting Lights! &nbsp;Have a Heart for your 240, man! &nbsp;Please!

[Sick240]

I abide by all of the no rice rules, but I need to know if this is pushing it, &nbsp;I have a 90 240sx, and I just bought the H4 Diamond Conversion, and PIAA Ion Blue headlights(yellow/blue/purple/green) what do you guys think?

[MyFirst240SX]

I think the fake HID or superwhite everything lights are a little more &quot;ricey&quot;. &nbsp;I dont buy into the whole putting little lights on ur car deems u a ricer. &nbsp;My view point on a ricer is somewho puts several to alot of High performance Looking parts on there stock engined car.(CIVIC 240 ACCORD) &nbsp;ya know. &nbsp;thats just my slant

[MyFirst240SX]

how come it didn't move to the top?

[Bomix]

how did i ever miss this topic.. wow..
&nbsp;dude i'll buy those washer light things off you how about that?

&nbsp; - then i'll destory them and throw them away..
-sorry i am no help. &nbsp;like everything electrical in your car, just wire them to your battery..

[96SEChick]

MyFirst--Even if you do install the squirter lights--PLEASE, PLEASE don't wire them into your turn signals. &nbsp;There was a black Civic behind me and my BF tonight that did that and it was the absolute UGLIEST thing I had ever seen--and the lights were GREEN, and he had a RED neon license plate frame--Christmas Civic I guess?

[whateverjames]

i can't believe it, i saw those lights on an old pickup truck! he was stuck on the side of the road pulling a trailer. i couldn't tell what year it was, maybe and early 80's chevy and it was rusted all over. it was annoying, he kept looking over to see if i was looking at his cool lights. i'm going to buy this car and put those lights on it so i can be cool <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

look, this is a tech talk forum... not dog on everyone becuase they do something you dont like... he asked for help and not for everyone to tell him he is dumb... &nbsp;maybe his car will look good with them who knows, &nbsp;i hate chrome wheels and i think the enkei s15 conversion 240sx is bad ass and it has chrome wheels... so you never know, and i have fake hid headlights so im ricey according to him... &nbsp;yes i dont like the lights but thats my opinion
