Default Oh boy, have fun!

You're going to have to cut the yellow lines in half. Then, the clip end will slide into the harness (black pieces on left in that picture). Placement into the harness is in the tech file (though it's not 100% correct if I recall correctly.) You'll have to strip the ends of your current wires, connect them to the stripped end of the yellow wires, and voila, you're all set.

Default it depends on how you are wiring them

If you want to wire them like they work in europe you need a relay and it requires 4 wires per side. If you want to wire them to be always on, you need half as many wires. There are many options . I'd suggest searching the forum, you'll find out what they are.
