Wire what lights?

Are you talking about how to make the stock 93-95 lights look like this:





or are you talking about the front lights?

If you want to do the conversion yourself, you can visit this site:

http://www.jsott.com/rx-7/lights/index.html

If don't want to do it yourself, there are several guys on the forum that do incredible work:

BTW, those pics I posted are of my lights done by rx7even..

I never found a web page. I just droped mine in and put the 2 bolts on the back of each one. they installed great!

Oh your asking about WIRES

forget a JY to find a connector I looked on all kinds of cars for 3 hours and only found one connector. can't remember which car I got it from. I think nissan truch though. I eventually cut the plastic connector back, and used solder and heat shrink. worked pretty well.
seemed to be what all the others have done too.

I think you need a jigsaw to make them fit a US bumper, but it won't look so hot
