I think the scotchlocks would be fine if they are packed with the dielectric grease as solman said.

My wonder is if these would even been seen with my HIDs on.

I am working on getting some good pics with the headlights on to post on here. Unfortunately I am having some camera issues. My camera has a glare cutting feature which is great unless you are trying to take pictures of lights, then if dims them to the point that they don't even look like they are on.

I am pleased with the way they look with the headlights on though, they are very visible. As soon as I figure this camera out I'll post them up.

Grease of any type will eventually fail in wet environments. Dielectric grease is good for inhibiting moisture from static connections.

For wet environments, we've been using Scotchkote for years on high voltage underground splices and believe me, it works. I've used it on everything from outdoor line voltage lighting to boat trailer wiring. I soldered the main harness of an Isuzu pickup 2 years ago that was burned while welding reinforcements to a rusted frame. We coated it with this and even on salty winter roads, never had a problem. But it's nasty stuff to get off if you ever get it on something you didn't intend to. You need to go to a professional electrical supply house to find it.

For the front side markers, can someone tell me which wire on each side is the power (hot), and which is the ground?

If you are doing projects such as these, you would be well advised to invest in an inexpensive multimeter. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter

They are easy to use and it will save you a lot of time, and will pay for itself many times over. Even if someone here posted the correct answer, I would still double check with a multimeter myself.

Multimeters are handy for checking light bulbs and various bulb sockets, as well as tracing wiring faults, and presence of voltages, as well as checking grounding.
