Yes, definitely individually. I wasn't trying to strip the individual insulation off, just the rubber tubing that surrounded all three of them together. Which brings me to my next point, I'm hooked up with the ground wire to black and the other to white and yet nothing. Anyone have suggestions? I'm about to just cut my losses, tuck this stuff back up in the headliner, and move on to just wiring it to the fuse box which seems a little more idiot proof (which I apparently desperately need).
