I am looking into buying some angel eyes for my 95 Z71. I heard that you have to seperately wire the halo''s to an alternate power source. Would I just wire them to the battery or are there kits without alternate wiring?

Because the halos are just two leds in an optic (clear plastic) ring, you can just tap them into the parking lights. I have quad halos (fogs and heads) and they are all wired into the parking lights and I have no trouble with it. LEDs require 10x less amperage than filament bulbs.

So I just need to splice the wires together with the parking lamp wires? I believe the parking lamps blink when making a turn. Are the halo''s going to blink every time I turn? lol

No, they won''t flash. You have a dual filament bulb for the parking/signal lights. There are three wires leading to them. I beleive the wire you want to splice into is brown. Don''t hold me to it, because it may be different on the 1995 model, but thats what color it is on the ''96 Silv and the ''99 Burb I have in the yard. It would be best to get a test light or DMM to figure out which is Ground, Blinker, and Parking.You''ll just need to splice the red wire into the parking light wire and use a drilltip screw and ground the black wire to the radiator support.
