The easiest place to tap into is the accessory 12v (lighter plug) in the glove box. All you need to do is take the glove box off (super easy), take the 12v off and you'll see the place to put your wires (with ends that will fit which for me were the red plastic with small flat metal ends). They will turn on with the car. The hard part is getting them to stick to the plastic underside in the footwell or where ever you put them.

1. The first picture shows the LEDs under the dash with the wire going towards the center. 2. The second, is the side panel removed with the wires showing. 3. The third is the gear shift bezel removed showing the wires. The wire harness attached to the buttons was removed. I took some insulation of of the purple wire then attached my power wire from the LED's and wrapped each in electric tape. pics 4 and 5 are close ups of the harness. 4. The sixth picture shows how they were grounded to two screws under the bezel. 5. The seventh picture is the side panel in its proper place. 6. Final Result. Let me know how you like it because I love it. They only turn on if the headlight switch has been engaged. Also sorry about the quality of the photos done with my phone. Hope this helps. |

As for taking off the bezel, pretty much just force. Its a few clips that hold it in so if you apply pressure equally to the whole unit, it should just come right off. Hope that helps! |

These come on with like the gauge lights and stuff. So if they are on, they will always be on regardless of the doors. Thats what tapping the purple wire will do. You may be able to tape into the door lights or something to make it go one with the interior lights that come on with the door opening
