So I have had my Angel Eyes installed for about 3 weeks now and have blown a 15 amp fuse and a 20 amp fuse. The power for the switch is connected into the black/yellow 12v constant as BlackTibs instructed me. What size fuse should I go with to keep them from blowing?

Try uninstalling the lights and see if it is still occuring. Also which fuses are blowing? *quick edit* Never put a higher amp fuse in there that is supposed to be, thats how your car can potentially catch on fire or ruin other more important electrical components such as your ECU, coil packs etc..

its the fuse that connects the angel eyes to the switch, so it doesn't interact with any other system of my car which is why i put the larger fuse in.
