Default Projector Headlights -- Help

I just purchased projector headlights for my xB, and the wiring is different than the stock headlights. I got them from Darkside Motoring, and they are the single projector lights. The parking light/blinker spot is different than stock. Darkside said that wires will need to be spliced together with the stock set-up. Is there a way to do that so I won't mess up if I have to go back to the stock lights?

Also, there is separate wiring for something at the top of the headlight. Darkside said that this should be spliced with the daytime running lights, but the xB doesn't have daytime running lights, just the parking lights. It's a small strip that looks like it could be a blinker or something, but I know that's not what it is. I mean, it might be some kind of running light, but what the heck am I supposed to hook it up to?

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. :D

Splice the led bar on top to your parking or blinker wires( your choice how you want it to light) and splice into the blinker wires from your stock blinker bulb socket.

Thanks for the info. Once the weather gets warmer, I'll probably try it. I'm afraid of cracking the bumper now taking it off.........Thanks again :D
