Rep Power: 0 Alright I just spent half an hour typing you some instructions and hit submit, when I got an error and the whole damn thing was lost. I'm way too tired to try and type it again and I'll only get you lost with it, but basically, run the wires into your trunk (the best way is through the license plate lights, above your license plate.)
Next, you'll need to use a knife or scissors to expose some of the bare wire that's running to your license plate lights, and then turn them on. Just touch the red wire to one of them and the black to the other - if the LED comes on then it's working, if not, switch them around and see. It should work one way or the other. When you get a working connection, tape the wires together with electrical tape and you're done.
Sorry if this is kinda vague, but hopefully it helps. If not PM me and I'll get back to ya as soon as I can. In the meantime good luck, and I'm goin to bed. I gotta work in 5 hours. Crap ..
