This question is actually about my brothers volkswagon but I figured you guys might know. We were trying to install some aftermarket headlights and ran into some issues with one not coming on the fact that they came with no wiring directions made it especially difficult. They also have angel eye bulbs with seem to draw power directly from the battery. Anyway we tried attaching the original low beam bulb only to find out that it isn't even working now. My brother messed with it some more later and now neither of his original low beams bulbs are working. I don't see any fuses that we might have blown any ideas what might be going on?

Thanks,
Phil
 
The eclipse ones I've seen have a wiring harness built into the headlight. There is only one plug to plug into the harness on the car...kinda foolproof that way. Not sure about VW cars. As for the angel eyes, those plug into your parking lights so that when they are on, the angel eyes are as well. If you just wire them to the battery, they will only shut off if your battery dies.
